The "Current Flight Deals" page (https://www.delta.com/us/en/flight-d...t-flight-deals) is also somewhat helpful and loads for me (it does take a minute) while the Skymiles Deal page does not load any dropdowns.
YMMV.

Glad I'm not the only one that can't get the drop down to work for Caribbean. Can get RDU to Tokyo for 80k on main round trip before cc discount.

Posting the travel restrictions is super helpful. Thank you! I'm seeing the same prices to the destinations above out of SEA aswell.

You can use both Flexible dates and Calendar view. But you also need to play close attention to the seasonality requirements. If you are trying to book outside these windows, the sale awards won't be available.

Yesterday site didn't work. It's working for me today/now.
Ironically they have flights from BIS and FAR but nothing for ALB (ha).
BOS to "caribbean" yields a very specific week for CUN (during hurricane season). No thanks.
Maybe if I was going to Asia, but the "Caribbean" deals weren't all that, IMO.
But again, home airport is ALB and there's never anything from there (in all the years I've searched, nothing Delta ever offers). Even Southwest will barely have any sales (occasionally and it's always to MCO).
But I'm sure others with better hubs (apparently FAR and BIS are better--haha) have better deals.
