Underway Now: Air Fare Sales...

Filed in archive Flying high on January 27, 2009

The Perrin Post pointed out earlier this month that that the summer air fare sale is on!

Now is the time to get cheap tickets for that summer trip to Europe.

...yesterday US Airways launched a fab unadvertised summer sale to London, Paris, Frankfurt, and other European cities: Fares are in the $500s and $600s, including all taxes, for peak summertime travel.

These fares are in some cases less than half what other carriers are charging.

You can also get great deals at the moment to South America.

LAN Airlines now has roundtrip fares from New York City to six different cities in Argentina for $599, six different cities in Chile for $699, Easter Island for $999, and uruguay for $599. (These fares don't include taxes, which add up to $90 to your bill.) There are similar fares from Toronto, as well as deals from other U.S. cities.

The South America fares are from travel between February 1 and June 15.
