Fare Sales & Other Deals

To kick off the new year, multiple airlines have piled on in an industry-wide fare sale. Destinations include Las Vegas, Orlando and Cancun. These fares aren’t what you’d call screamin’ good, but they’re in line with the post-holiday travel season.

Virtually all airlines are matching (or approaching) some of these prices, including Alaska, American, Continental, Delta, Frontier, JetBlue, Southwest, Spirit, US Airways, United and Virgin America. Because of this, we highly recommend that you compare deals across multiple travel sites with the FareGuru Air Fare Comparison Tool. Read More ›
