Following the Christmas Day airline bombing scare, where a deranged individual tried to take down a Northwest Airlines flight inbound from Amsterdam with liquid explosives, airport security has increased dramatically. As a result, prices for international travel have plummeted in an effort to attract travelers, who would otherwise be turned off by the hassle of flying abroad.
The following travel deals illustrate the incredible bargains that are available for people willing to fly internationally:
SPAIN
From now through March 30th you can score an amazing deal to Madrid and Barcelona from New York for just $796 per person. The price covers: Round-trip airfare arriving in Madrid and departing from Barcelona on Air France and Delta; a one-way flight from Madrid to Barcelona on Spain Air; three nights in Madrid at the luxurious Hotel Praga; three nights in Barcelona at the Sunotel Aston; three breakfasts; hotel taxes and fees; and fuel surcharges.
If you can’t make it to New York City, you can still make the most of this phenomenal deal for a few extra bucks. For example, if you depart from Boston simply add $5 to the $796 base price. Likewise, if you leave from Chicago add $38; from Houston add $44; from Denver add $66; from San Francisco add $68; from D.C. add $69; from L.A. add $79, and from Atlanta add $115.
NEW ZEALAND
If you have ever dreamed of exploring beautiful New Zealand, this is the time to go. Qantas Airways has partnered with Tourism New Zealand to make visiting the breathtakingly stunning region remarkably affordable. From now until September, the airline is reducing fares by as much as 40 percent. That means you can fly round-trip from Los Angeles or San Francisco to Auckland for just $798. From New York City the price is just $998. Considering that other airlines are asking upwards of $1500 for the same flights, this deal is hard to beat. The only catch: You must book by January 26th to qualify for the low fare, though you have until September 21st to complete your trip.
