If the start of the busy Spring Break season isn't what comes to mind when thinking about cheap, last-minute flights, then think again. Virgin America is currently offering 20% off all flights from March 6 until April 29, 2015 — a great opportunity for a last minute deal! Act fast, because this offer is only valid through Sunday, March 1, 2015

Using the code ESCAPE20 you can search for last-minute fares on all of Virgin America's routes. The code is good for a discount of either 10% or 20% depending on the day of travel. The discounts are as follows:

  • 10% off for flights Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays
  • 20% off for flights Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays

Virgin America has some great Spring Break destinations in its route network. If you're a budget traveler looking for a deal or simply looking to escape the brutal cold that some parts of the country have endured these last few weeks, this promo is a great opportunity to escape to a sunny destination. Cities such as Palm Springs, Cancun, and Ft. Lauderdale are included in this offer, but make sure to act fast, because inventory is limited.

This promotion also offers a great opportunity to get discounted transcontinental fares. Flights from NYC to both Los Angeles and San Francisco are among the lowest I've seen in some time.
