While we've seen our fair share of deals to Zurich, Frankfurt, and Barcelona lately, hidden gems in Eastern Europe like Riga (RIX), Prague (PRG), and Budapest (BUD) don't often get included in those random unadvertised deals.
So try somewhere new with LOT Polish Airlines massive sale to Europe. Nonstop flights start at $499 and almost every destination in Eastern Europe and beyond that rarely get discounted are marked down hundreds compared to their usual price.
Travel days depend on routing, and you'll have the best luck finding availability if you are flexible with your travel calendar. Departure dates in November are scarce but available while searching in 2019 will bring back the best results. Since LOT operates only a handful of flights to the U.S. each week, depending on your final destination some of the layovers might be long. But don't take that as a hindrance, use it to explore Warsaw along the way - making a 2-for-1 deal.
With most airlines charging for bags across the Atlantic now, you'll be happy to hear all these fares include a free first checked bag and the long-haul legs are onboard LOT's new 787 Dreamliners.
Combine these discount deals to budget-friendly destinations and you'll have the trip of a lifetime but without breaking the bank.
All fares must be purchased by this Friday, September 14, 2018, by midnight EDT.
