Airfare deals are typically only available on limited dates. We recommend that you use Google Flights to find dates to fly, then book through an online travel agency, such as Orbitz, which allows you to cancel flights without penalty by 11pm Eastern Time within one day of booking. Remember: Fares may disappear quickly, so book right away and take advantage of Orbitz’s courtesy cancellation if you’re unable to travel. Additionally, keep in mind that discounted partner fares may not earn miles with US-based carriers.

This is the best deal we've seen to Japan in quite some time. Currently, you can book 1 or 2-stop flights on United from Boston to Osaka for just $460 round-trip. NYC is priced a bit higher at $610 round-trip, but that's still a phenomenal deal. Osaka is a very short train ride away from Kyoto, but it's also a fantastic destination in and of itself. It's also just a 2.5-hour Shinkansen ride from Tokyo, so you can easily combine both cities in one trip. Note that you'd need to fly in and out of Osaka to get this fare, however.

Route: BOS and NYC to KIX
Cost: $460+ round-trip in economy
