I used to fly a route from London City to JFK (with a stopover in Shannon) and a similar route from Newark to Singapore. Both were competitively priced with the business class seats on the 3 class birds on similar routes. In the case of the former, it was much slower than the larger jets, so I assume that put downward pressure on the flight price. For the Newark flight, I think the departing airport being Newark also helped contribute to slightly lower fares than say if it was JFK to SIN.

Having worked in the industry previously, I’m not sure there are many city pairs where all business works but carriers such as La Compagnie have made it work for at least stretches at a time.
