Amazing Business Class sale to Singapore on Qatar Airways if you book in the next 7 days. Fly from LAX, JFK, and IAH. Fares come out to $1900-2100 per person depending on route. Valid Jan 15-Dec 15 with some limited blackout dates. Use promo code "VISA" and pay with Visa for further 15% discount.

Qatar's A350 is one of the best business class products out there and available from JFK-DOH on certain routes (DOH-SIN will always be A350). The 777 is offered from LAX and IAH and is older, but still lie flat with great service. This one flight would give you elite status if credited to American Airlines!
