Thanks to Going, formerly known as Scott's Cheap Flights, for flagging these deals. At $49 a year, the site's Premium membership provides discounts of up to 90% and includes a 14-day free trial. The Elite membership also scouts premium economy, business-class and first-class deals.

Sample flights

While there are only four discounted routes in these deals, these fares to Tahiti are hard to beat, considering that flights to Tahiti typically go for at least $1,000.

Just for comparison, a similar Spring Break trip from Los Angeles to Miami over the same dates would cost just about the same as you would spend on these flights to Tahiti.

Here are the flights featured in this set of deals:

  • United: San Francisco International Airport (SFO) to Faaa International Airport (PPT), starting at $642.
  • Delta: Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to PPT, starting at $650.
  • United: Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to PPT, starting at $765.
  • Air France, Delta and United: Denver International Airport (DEN) to PPT, starting at $886.

We recommend using Google Flights to find your ideal dates and then booking your flights on the airline's website; direct airline bookings tend to be more reliable if there's a delay, cancellation or booking change.

Be sure to use a card that earns bonus points on airfare purchases, like The Platinum Card® from American Express (5 points per dollar on airfare booked directly with the airline or through American Express Travel, on up to $500,000 on these purchases per calendar year), Citi Prestige® Card (5 points per dollar on airfare), Citi Premier® Card, Chase Sapphire Reserve (3 points per dollar on airfare), American Express® Gold Card (3 points per dollar on airfare when booked directly with the airline or through Amex Travel) or the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card (2 points per dollar on travel).

Bottom line

Flying to Tahiti can be expensive, so these discounted fares are perfect if you still haven't finalized any spring break plans. Since the travel dates for these deals range from February to March, and the peak season to visit Tahiti is later in the spring, you probably won't experience the crowds you'd otherwise see in places like Florida, Mexico and Puerto Rico.

These prices won't last, so book these tickets and plan your spring break to Tahiti as soon as possible.
