We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Act fast for a great deal to Europe!  Via The Flight Deal, you can fly from Boston, Chicago, Newark, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC, to several European cities in coach for under $496!

    I even found flights from Miami to Brussels for $436!  These fares are valid for travel between January and March 2017.

    Brussels Is an Easy Train Ride From Paris and Amsterdam!

    Here are the details.  And how to search for deals from your city!

    Link:   The Flight Deal

    American Airlines, Delta, and United Airlines are competing for your business for your next trip to Europe!  You can fly to Europe from at least 6 cities for under $496.  There are currently sales from:

    I Found Flights From Chicago to Brussels Round-Trip for ~$446!

    To get the deal, you must book a ticket with a stay of 7 days or more for travel in January through March 2017.  And you must purchase your tickets 28 days in advance for flights on American Airlines or Delta.  And 90 days in advance if you fly with United Airlines.

    These are great deals to Europe, and cheap ways to explore more of the continent.  That’s because flights within Europe are usually pretty cheap.

    You can check The Flight Deal 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 website (American Airlines, Delta, or United Airlines) or through a site like Orbitz or Expedia.

    If you book a ticket with 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!

    American Airlines Tips

    Folks with the Citi Prestige can use Citi ThankYou points to purchase tickets at a rate of 1.6 cents per point on American Airlines through July 23, 2017.  Check the Citi Travel Portal to see if the same fares are available!

    Note: You can hold a reservation on American Airlines for up to 24 hours and cancel without penalty if you change your mind.

    Delta Tips

    You can cancel a Delta booking by midnight the day after you bought your ticket and get a full refund.

    United Airlines Tips

    You can cancel a United Airlines booking 24 hours after you book to get a full refund.

    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.
