How to sign up for deal newsletters and fare alerts from US-based airlines

Posted by Tim Charters on Tuesday, May 05, 2009

As we've said many times, the best airfare deals are only available on the airlines' own web sites, and many of them come in the form of promo code deals and special offers. You can only get these, in some cases, if you sign up for alerts and emails directly from the airlines. However, we've noticed that many airlines make it a bit challenging to find where to sign up for alerts! So we've gathered links to most US airlines all in one handy dandy place.  So sign up and save!

 

Click on any airline below to sign up for newsletters and fare alerts Examples of what you will receive
 AirTran  Frequent promo code deals that are individually generated (but you can sometimes forward them to friends and they work for them as well)
 Alaska Weekly discount promo code offers, usually in the 10% range.
 Allegiant Air  Must register for as an Allegiant Air member. Promo code offers and sale notices.
 American  Must register for the AAdvantage program. You can register separately for their DealFinder program, but we haven't seen too many enticing offers lately.
 Continental  Must register for the OnePass program. Sale announcements including weekend fares.
 Delta  Must register for the SkyMiles program. Sale announcements including weekend fares.
 Frontier  Sale annoucements incuding weekend fares.
 go!  Register for go! Exclusives located in the middle of the airline's website.
 Hawaiian  Register for the "Low Unadvertised Fares Email" located on the airline's website. Special website-only deals and other sale anouncements.
 jetBlue  Promo code sale fares, sometimes 20% off or $30 off, sometimes incredible deals that available on site only such as a recent $14 coast to coast sale.
 Midwest  Sale announcements.
 Northwest  During 2009, WorldPerks will be integrated into Delta's SkyMiles. General sale announcements.
 Southwest  Incredible 50% off promo code deals and other fare sales.
 Spirit Spirit's loyalty program ($9 Fare Club) involves a yearly fee. Promo code offers and wacky sales with fares as low as $0 plus tax.
 Sun Country Recent offer including $39 companion fares and other deals available only on their web site.
 United  Must register for the Mileage Plus program. No longer sends out weekly weekend fare emails but offers other sale announcements, usually no great shakes.
 USA3000  Promo codes and other sales, usually $10 off or so.
 Virgin America  Must register for the Elevate loyalty program to get alerts. Best deal they've had so far was a 2 for 1 offer, but we've seen 35% promo code deals as well.

Does anyone know of an instance where Orbite has made good on their "Price Assure"? Understand it ONLY works if a subsequent party has booked a lower fare and ONLY via Orbitz.
