Via The Flight Deal, you can fly round-trip in coach from New York to Paris for ~$310 on Norwegian Air. And round-trip in coach to Hong Kong from Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and New York, for ~$487 with American Airlines.
I found a flight leaving San Francisco November 3, 2016, and returning from Hong Kong November 10, 2016, for ~$488. And a flight from New York (JFK) to Paris departing December 4, 2016, and returning December 11, 2016, for ~$325.
The flights to Hong Kong are valid for travel from September 2016 to early January 2017. And the deal to Paris is good for travel between December 2016 and March 2017.
Here are the details. And how to search for deals from your city!

Then book directly on Norwegian Air or American Airlines, or through a site like Orbitz.
If you book a ticket with an online travel agency like Orbitz, Expedia, or Priceline, you may be eligible for a refund within a short time of booking your ticket. Check out my post on cancellation policies for airlines and online travel agencies for more details!
American Airlines Tips
Folks with the Citi Prestige can use Citi ThankYou points to purchase tickets at a rate of 1.6 cents per point on American Airlines. Check the Citi Travel Portal to see if the same fares are available!
Note: You can hold a reservation on American Airlines for up to 24 hours and get a full refund if you change your mind.
Nowegian Air Tips
Remember, Norwegian Air charges fees for extras, like checked bags and seat reservations. So you’ll get the best deal if you can pack light.
Save up to ~20% on Your Flight
You can take advantage of currency conversion rates to save even more on Norwegian Air tickets. Even flights that are already on sale!

Hotel Information
If you book a sale flight, remember there are lots of ways to get cheap or free hotel rooms with points from credit card bonuses and spending.
Check out my favorite Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, and Starwood hotels in Europe!
To find hotels that can be booked with points, I use Hotel Hustle (which even shows you if rooms are actually available!) or AwardMapper.
Remember, you can transfer flexible points like Chase Ultimate Rewards or American Express Membership Rewards to different hotel programs.
Note: If you prefer to book paid stays, check out discount sites like Orbitz, Expedia, or TravelPony for deals. But remember you won’t get stay credits or points (and might not have your elite status recognized!).
Airbnb is another terrific way to save money on accommodations, especially for longer stays. Here are some tips on how to negotiate a better Airbnb price, and how to find a safe and comfortable Airbnb.
