No joke: American Airlines has flights under $250…

It’s fun to picture a big loud airhorn going off as you read this, as we sound the alarm on flight deals which make flying from the USA to Barcelona, Spain more affordable than popping over to Boston. Where else in the world can you zip from the beach to a Picasso museum to the Sagrada Familia in minutes, with delicious food and wine in between? Deal alert: Barcelona has never been closer.

There’s never been a better time to visit Spain. For starters, getting there has factually never been more affordable. It wasn’t long ago that $500 round trip was considered a total bargain, but prices today are literally half that – and on American Airlines too. Barcelona is an action packed city, set against the sea like the Rio of Europe but laced with museums, tapas bars and perfect boulevards, all the way up to the magnificent Parc Guell.

Barcelona is whatever you want it to be in the best of ways. Party city – definitely. Culture creature heaven – most definitely. Foodie paradise? Like no other! Today you can jet off from a few U.S. cities from under $275 round trip, some under $250…
