Delta is putting London on sale as part of their 4th of July sale in both Coach and Business Class for July and early August travel from selected US cities:
- Atlanta, GA (ATL) *
- Boston, MA (BOS) *
- Chicago-O’Hare, IL (ORD)
- Dallas-Fort Worth, TX (DFW)
- Detroit-Wayne County, MI (DTW) *
- Houston-Intercontinental, TX (IAH)
- Los Angeles, CA (LAX)
- Memphis, TN (MEM)
- New York-Kennedy, NY (JFK) *
- Philadelphia, PA (PHL)
- San Francisco, CA (SFO)
- Washington-Dulles, DC (IAD)
* Non-stop service
For Summer travel, these are good fares, but not as good as their $700 non-stop service sale from JFK on Sunday. To take advantage, must purchase by July 4th! This is only a few hundred dollars more than flying in Coach normally!
Sample Date:
- Sample from San Francisco
- July 12th – 17th. Valid for travel from July 5th – August 12th. Use ITA Software Matrix Airfare Search and flexible month search to see availability. Must purchase by July 4th
Routing:
- SFO – JFK (New York) – LHR – JFK – SFO
Mileage:
- 12,076 miles or 14.6 cents per mile in International Business Class. 7.2 cents in Coach. Remember, if you fly business class, you earn a 50% class of service bonus as well as 50% elite status bonus. If you fly from San Francisco in Business, this will earn you 18,144 elite status and redeemable miles. Almost enough for Silver Medallion status with Delta.
