These deals must be booked by September 5th, 2018, so you’ve technically got a few days. With that said, these deals are subject to availability, so you’ll want to get in sooner than later. The Australia deals are only valid for travel from September 6th – December 9th of this year, so get planning! The other deals, which you can find here, are available for other date ranges and offer particularly good value as well.

If you’ve got Delta Skymiles, this is super easy. If you’ve got American Express Membership Rewards Points, it’s also incredibly easy. You can pull up the Delta Flash Sales via this link, and begin to search for seats at the prices mentioned. The best way to do that is to use “flexible dates” and switch to the “5 week” view. This will help you find the lowest prices using points with ease. From there, just follow the steps to book. We recommend finding seat availability that you can definitely use before actually transferring Amex Points to Delta, since these points transfers are essentially instant. Better to keep the points in Amex if you can’t find something that works…
