A good sale to Barcelona with Summer availability. This is a regular economy fare with advance seat assignment, normal size carry-on and checked luggage included.
Delta / Air France / KLM Royal Dutch also have Basic Economy / Economy Light fares for travel around the same timeframe to other European cities like Madrid, Paris, Rome and Amsterdam. However, Delta / Air France / KLM Royal Dutch International Basic Economy / Economy Light fares do not:
- Allow for advance seat assignment
- Checked bags – they are $45 each way
- Changes
- Cancellations – so if you cancel after the 24 hour risk free period, the Basic Economy version will have no value for future purchase
Unless you are SkyTeam committed, we think that a non-Basic Economy / Economy Light fare will show up with other airlines in the future for travel around that timeframe and you should wait for those to show up. That’s why we are only featuring the Barcelona deal.
ITA will price this at $530, using those dates on Air France should reprice to $504.
Here are some practical travel tips to Barcelona, Spain.
