Via The Points Guy, you can fly round-trip from several US cities to Copenhagen, Helsinki, Oslo, and Stockholm, starting at just $347 in coach!
It looks like this fare is valid primarily for travel between January and March 2017, though there are also dates available in April and May 2017. I found flights from Boston to Copenhagen for $347 on April 2, 2017, and returning April 10, 2017.
Here are the details. And how to search for deals from your city!

Right now, you can buy cheap flights from several US cities, like New York City, Boston, and Denver, to:
- Copenhagen, Denmark
- Helsinki, Finland
- Oslo, Norway
- Stockholm, Sweden
Air Canada, British Airways, Finnair, and Lufthansa are the airlines offering the discounted airfare. So if you don’t use these airlines often, make sure you credit your miles to airlines you use!
Note: There are also plenty of cheap flights offered by Norwegian Air. But because they are a budget airline, you’ll pay for extras like carry-on bags. And you won’t be able to credit the miles you fly to other airlines.
You can check The Points Guy for how to book. Or see my posts for how to use Google Flights and ITA Matrix to find sale dates.
Then book directly on the airline’s website, or through a site like Orbitz or Expedia.
If you do book through an online travel agency like Orbitz, Expedia, or Priceline you may be eligible for a refund within a short time of booking your ticket. Check out my post on cancellation policies for airlines and online travel agencies for more details!
Hotel Information
If you book a sale flight, remember there are lots of ways to get cheap or free hotel rooms with points from credit card bonuses and spending.
Check out my favorite Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, and Starwood hotels in Europe!
To find hotels that can be booked with points, I use Hotel Hustle (which even shows you if rooms are actually available!) or AwardMapper.
Remember, you can transfer flexible points like Chase Ultimate Rewards or American Express Membership Rewards to different hotel programs.
Note: If you prefer to book paid stays, check out discount sites like Orbitz, Expedia, or TravelPony for deals. But remember you won’t get stay credits or points (and might not have your elite status recognized!).
Airbnb is another terrific way to save money on accommodations, especially for longer stays. Here are some tips on how to negotiate a better Airbnb price, and how to find a safe and comfortable Airbnb.
