Airfare deals are typically only available on limited dates. We recommend you use Google Flights to find dates to fly, then book through an online travel agency such as Orbitz or Expedia, which allows you to cancel flights without penalty by 11pm Eastern Time within one day of booking. However, if you’re using The Platinum Card® from American Express, you’ll need to book directly with the airline or through the Amex Travel portal to get 5x MR points. Remember: Fares may disappear quickly, so book right away and take advantage of Orbitz or Expedia’s courtesy cancellation if you’re unable to get the time away from work or family.

TAP Portugal is running a sale pricing flights to Barcelona (BCN) and Madrid (MAD) for cheap. We're seeing flights from New York (JFK), Newark (EWR) Boston (BOS), Miami (MIA), Philadelphia (PHL), Los Angeles (LAX), Chicago (ORD) and Washington DC (IAD) with prices starting at just $270 round-trip. And if you're wanting to travel to these popular destinations during peak summer dates when prices are usually north of $800, you can find tickets for around $450.

American and Iberia have a handful of cheap flights, too. All three carriers are selling tickets in basic economy, so you'll have to pay extra if you want to check a bag or select a seat.
