Pack your bags: Fly to Berlin and other European cities from $359 round-trip
We have a new batch of discounted fares to Europe to share with you.
Flights to dozens of overseas destinations are marked down, from Alicante, Spain, to Zurich, Switzerland. Departure cities include Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Newark, New York City and Washington, D.C. Some of the prices we found were incredibly low, with several routes going for just under $400 for round-trip fares. You could even build an open-jaw itinerary that lets you visit several countries during your vacation, including some off-the-beaten-path places that are well worth your time.
The travel window is from August through April of next year, so you have a lot of flexibility to make your travel plans. Nearly all flights in this sale involve layovers. A slew of airlines have slashed fares in this deal.
These sale fares are for economy-class tickets but include a free carry-on. Depending on the carrier, checked bags will cost between $55 and $100 each way. If you book a ticket with Icelandair or Aer Lingus and plan to check luggage, you may be able to upgrade to a baggage-inclusive tier (such as something like "standard economy") and save on checked-bag fees.
