Reverse sale (2 weekends in Paris) has not popped yet, but based on recent history, gets as low as $600 also.

Interested in this but there's a bit of confusion regarding the equipment being used. It looks like from the link to the 767 picture, it is actually a 757 aircraft. Also, based on this article:
https://runwaygirlnetwork.com/2016/0...xex-questions/
It looks like there may be a completely different class than "prem plus" as referenced in the post. Perhaps in this case, one should try for the 757?

I checked out some of the $712 dates using Avios for reward flights in PE and also using Avios to upgrade on paid into PE. The straight Avios RT was 52k plus almost $700 in fees and taxes. The upgrade with Avios paying cash in Econ and upgraded used 26k Avios and cost $818
