East Coast to San Diego for $175 ROUND TRIP!
There's
an amazing sale on right now with United Airlines, an Actual Fancy Non-Discount
Airline! $175 round trip from various East Coast locations to San Diego.
Whaaaat. This is unheard of! HOP ON IT.
WowAir summer sale! $99 US to Europe!
WowAir's
summer sale just started, and it will probably sell out fast. $99 Baltimore or
Boston to Iceland, and $129 back (so that's $228 round trip), all taxes
included. $189 to the UK and Europe.
There are great deals from the West Coast, too. Plus, WowAir now includes a free stopover in Iceland, so it's like 2 vacations in one.
Keep in mind that WowAir is about as budget as an airline can be. The planes are small, and they all have a short layover in Iceland to refuel. There are no movies on the planes, and in my experience, you are sort of treated like a second-class citizen. Sort of the Greyhound of the skies.
Additionally, WowAir is VERY strict about baggage, and only allows a personal item, which they weigh to make sure it's under 5 kg, which is basically nothing. A carry-on vest is a necessity. I also just made some carry-on cargo pants, which I may share with you all soon...
However, for $99, I think I can suck it up and deal. See ya suckers in Iceland!

$81 NYC to Costa Rica, but also Zika virus
Jetblue
and Delta are having a great sale right now, with $81 one-way flights to
Liberia, Costa Rica. I've been there once, and it is just about everything you
would imagine a tropical paradise to be,
except that the rain forest is kind of similar to a regular forest in Pennsylvania but with monkeys.
This is a great sale...but there is a travel warning due to the prevalence of the very nasty mosquito-borne Zika virus in Central and South America. It isn't known to be a big problem in Costa Rica yet, but it apparently can spread very quickly once one person gets it, as viruses do. There's no vaccine or treatment, but it usually isn't too serious. However, as far as I can tell, the long-term effects aren't known, and it is thought to cause birth defects, so you should probably not head South if you're pregnant. And lest you think this is American fearmongering, local women in Zika-affected countries are putting off pregnancy until the virus goes away.
It is a pretty good sale, though.
