Fly involving the continental U.S. and Canada for as few as 20,000 Delta miles roundtrip in coach.
That is the gist of the most up-to-date flash sale on SkyMiles award travel of Delta. It is indeed a flash sale. As in: Book by 11:59 p.m. ET on June 14.
Award traveling itself can be completed between September 5, while the booking must be made in order.
Deal or No Deal
Delta no longer publishes award graphs, so there’s absolutely absolutely no standard against which to gauge the prices. However, to Canada, I found award prices coach flights in random evaluation bookings. So the discounts can be considerable.
More commonly, the very fact that Delta is now currently discounting award traveling on a daily basis is a members. Although it might leave them wondering which are the “normal” prices: the discounted rates, or the non-discounted prices. With the almost certain prospect of more award winning sales to come, it surely makes ponying up the “normal” award price look like an unnecessary extravagance.
The booking imperative is a negative as is always the case with flash revenue.
Still, worth a look if you’ve Delta miles in your hand and plan (or could plan) a trip on any of those discounted routes from the coming months.
