American is putting Europe on sale — even from American and Delta hubs.
- Barcelona [BCN]
- Madrid [MAD]
- Amsterdam [AMS]
- Milan [MXP]
- Paris [CDG]
- Rome [FCO]
…and many others. This isn’t a comprehensive list—if it isn’t listed, search and see if it prices out. But the sale is center around Spain, Italy, France and Netherlands. So if smaller cities aren’t listed here, just plug them in to see if it works. This is widely available even from cities like Des Moines. So should be available everywhere.
This sale is NOT available from United hubs (Houston, Denver, and San Francisco, but is available from San Jose). Available from DC to Rome, Milan and Paris but not the others.

DFW/CDG is not available in March, April May
Also tried searching from late march through late april from DFW to CDG, BCN, MAD, MXP and FCO. None are available on sale from Dallas.
Fares ARE showing discounted from NYC/JFK
Also a Delta sale from United Hubs to Europe and Morocco in the $400s (at least SFO)!
Nothing from LAX or nearby i suppose?
Checked the AA.com website 3 minutes after receiving this email. Nothing i found was less than $1300 USD (I checked about 10 dates, covering a 6-month window). Guess that means the sale is over (or sold out) almost immediately.
Booked for September and October. The only months excluded are June – August. Pretty great and still very much alive all over Europe!
