American and US Airways is on sale from everywhere in the United States. Only cities we didn’t find availability are American and US Airways solely operated hubs. However, Delta had that cover last night.

Delta also have a similar fare to Spain, Finland and the United Kingdom that is available everywhere except for Delta hubs (Atlanta, Detroit, Minneapolis, Salt Lake, Cincinnati, Memphis) and United hubs (San Francisco, Newark, Washington D.C., Chicago, Cleveland, Denver, Houston). Delta’s fares to Spain, Finland, and the UK will be about $100 cheaper than the American counterpart if the city pair is available. So if you are in Los Angeles to Spain for example, Delta will be cheaper.
