United – $589: Newark – Amsterdam, Netherlands. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

A sub-$600 full mileage earning fare to Amsterdam. This does not meet our 6 cents per mile criterion. You must follow our search instruction explicitly to find availability. Like the Newark – Paris $594 deal from last week, this too requires an overnight in Oslo on the return. (Without the overnight layover, United’s nonstop service from Newark to Amsterdam is $1,089 while Delta / KLM’s nonstop service from New York is at $1,039. So this is a significant saving even factoring in the cost of a hotel room in Oslo)
