Two of the sales below must be booked no later than Thursday, June 1, and one airline's special discount is valid only if you purchase today. The new sale from [**JetBlue**](https://www2.jetblue.com/deals/#/) offers flights for as little as $49 each way this summer, for airfare booked by Thursday, June 1. Travel is valid from June 7 to August 30, with blackouts on July 4 and 5. Availability is limited, and in most cases the cheapest prices will be found for travel on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Here are a bunch of sample sale fares: **Long Beach to Oakland: $49 Fort Lauderdale to New Orleans: $54 San Jose to Long Beach: $59 Las Vegas to Long Beach: $59 Boston to Martha's Vineyard: $64 Newark to Boston: $69 Washington, D.C. (DCA) to Hartford: $79 Long Beach to Salt Lake City: $79 New York (JFK) to Portland, Maine: $89 Detroit to Fort Lauderdale: $89 Boston to Bermuda: $94 New York (JFK) to Bermuda: $94 Orlando to Buffalo: $99 Orlando to Mexico City: $114 West Palm Beach to New York (LGA): $119** [**Southwest Airlines**](https://www.southwest.com/html/promotions/promotions_click_n_save_sale_170530_offers.html?clk=HOMEHERO_CNS170530) has a flight sale available for reservation through June 1 as well. Unfortunately, the prices don't apply to the peak summer period, but they're perfect for a getaway in late summer or early autumn. Fares listed below are valid on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays, from August 22 to November 1. **Los Angeles to Las Vegas: $42 Baltimore to Cincinnati: $49 Oakland to Las Vegas: $55 Burbank to Salt Lake City: $59 Boston to Nashville: $62 Atlanta to Milwaukee: $69 Milwaukee to Boston: $69 Boise to San Diego: $74 Reno to Los Angeles: $79 Baltimore to New Orleans: $83 Chicago (MDW) to Manchester, NH: $85 Los Angeles to El Paso: $86 Newark to Chicago (MDW): $86 Austin to Seattle: $135** Finally, the low-fare carrier [**Spirit Airlines**](http://marketing.spirit.com/traveldeals/air.php?s=3048) has a special deal offering 30% off airfare -- but flights must be booked by Wednesday, May 31 -- that is, today. Travelers should enter the code 30PCT on the airline site's promotional code box, and note that the 30% discount only applies to the airfare portion of your total flight price -- in other words, it doesn't apply to taxes and mandatory fees. The discount is valid on Spirit flights from June 7 through November 15, with blackouts applied to certain dates and routes. ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://money.com/cheap-flights-summer-travel-2017-jetblue-southwest/#breadcrumb", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://money.com" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Lifestyle", "item": "https://money.com/lifestyle/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Travel", "item": "https://money.com/travel/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "Cheap Flights Alert: Flash Sales for Summer Travel Are Happening Right Now" } ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://money.com/#website", "url": "https://money.com", "name": "Money", "publisher": { "@id": "https://money.com/#organization" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://money.com/cheap-flights-summer-travel-2017-jetblue-southwest/#webpage", "url": "https://money.com/cheap-flights-summer-travel-2017-jetblue-southwest/", "name": "Cheap Flights Alert: Flash Sales for Summer Travel Are Happening Right Now", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://money.com/#website" }, "datePublished": "2017-05-31T15:20:49.000Z", "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://money.com/cheap-flights-summer-travel-2017-jetblue-southwest/" }, "inLanguage": "en-US", "breadcrumb": { "@id": "https://money.com/cheap-flights-summer-travel-2017-jetblue-southwest/#breadcrumb" }, "dateModified": "2019-05-14T15:22:03.000Z" }, { "@type": "Article", "headline": "Cheap Flights Alert: Flash Sales for Summer Travel Are Happening Right Now", "articleSection": "Lifestyle", "image": [ { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.money.com/2017/05/summerflightsale-tr-537632915.jpg", "width": 5649, "height": 3722, "caption": "Boys running along beach with a toy plane" } ], "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Brad Tuttle", "url": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/", "@id": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/#author", "description": "Brad Tuttle is a former senior editor at Money with over 10 years’ experience covering a vast number of personal finance topics, including careers, cars, travel, budgeting, investing, insurance, credit cards, consumer psychology, real estate, banking, and shopping and deals.\r\n\r\n", "image": "https://img.money.com/2014/01/Brad-Tuttle.png?w=226&h=247&crop=1", "alumniOf": "Columbia University School of Journalism, MS", "sameAs": [ "https://twitter.com/bradrtuttle", "https://linkedin.com/in/brad-tuttle-834b225" ] } ], "publisher": "https://money.com/#organization", "datePublished": "2017-05-31T15:20:49.000Z", "description": "New flash sales from JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines, and Spirit Airlines offer cheap flights for travel during the summer of 2017.", "abstract": "New flash sales from JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines, and Spirit Airlines offer cheap flights for travel during the summer of 2017.", "@id": "https://money.com/cheap-flights-summer-travel-2017-jetblue-southwest/", "inLanguage": "en-US", "dateModified": "2019-05-14T15:22:03.000Z", "wordCount": 418, "keywords": [ "Airlines", "budget travel", "Cheap Travel", "deals", "flight sale" ], "about": [ { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Lifestyle", "sameAs": [ "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifestyle" ] }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Travel", "sameAs": [ "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel" ] } ] } ] } ```
