Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book your Delta Airlines award flights for travel to Europe during the off-peak months of January and February, as availability tends to open up significantly for routes like New York (JFK) to Paris (CDG) during this time.

Sweet Spot

You can redeem 200,000 Delta SkyMiles for a round-trip business class ticket from the U.S. to Europe, which typically costs around $4,000 in cash.

Routing Trick

You can fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo to Bangkok via Delta for 100,000 miles round-trip, instead of booking a direct route from Los Angeles to Bangkok, which would typically require 140,000 miles, saving you 40,000 miles.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with Delta Airlines for international routes, as they often impose a fuel surcharge of up to $500 on award tickets, significantly increasing your out-of-pocket costs.
