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.

    For example, I found a flight from New York (JFK) to Delhi, India, for ~$374, departing November 22, 2017, and returning November 29, 2017.

    How to Book It

    Link:   ITA Matrix

    Link:   Google Flights

    Link:   Momondo

    Link:   View From the Wing

    You can check View From the Wing for how to book.  And you can also see my posts for how to use the ITA Matrix or Google Flights to find sale dates, or use Momondo to search.

    Then book directly on the 3rd-party site Vayama.com.  Because the prices appear higher on China Eastern Airlines’ site.

    Just note, Vayama does NOT offer free cancellation within 24 hours, like other 3rd-party sites do.  So be sure of your plans before making a reservation!

    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 Marriott, Hyatt, IHG, and Starwood hotels in Asia and India!

    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.

    Bottom Line

    Flights from New York (JFK) and Chicago to many cities in Asia and India are on sale with China Eastern Airlines!  Fares are less than $400 round-trip in coach!

    You can use ITA Matrix or Google Flights to find sale dates, or use Momondo to search.  Then book on Vayama.com, which has cheaper rates than China Eastern Airlines’ site.

    This deal is valid for travel October 11, 2017, through December 9, 2017, and January 2018 through April 2018.  I suspect this won’t last long, so book soon if you want to get in on the deal!

    Let me know if you book a cheap flight!
