Some fares are still available, but this is burning up FAST!!! I booked one, then someone wanted to go with me. Less than a half hour passed, and T fares were already sold out on my return date (NYC-ZRH became ~$330 in U).

So I cancelled mine and booked two staying an extra day.

It's time to start a ZRH DO thread!!!

Don't you know that now that I've booked enough travel for Gold I'm going to have to keep going for Platinum? Couldn't I just spend time at home watching TV or surfing the web? Oh FlyerTalk, what am I going to do with you?
I feel the same way. I have no idea what my Sept. schedule will look like and certainly can have the possibility to not allow for discretionary, frivilous travel. I still booked it. What am I doing?!?

Oh yeah, having a kick-... long weekend in ZRH, that's what!!

The airfarewatchdog blog is calling this the summer Europe fare sale of the decade. That sounds about right.

And if you can get the 25,000 bonus, I would say it's the best summer airfare deal to Europe in the history of aviation. They are essentially paying YOU to fly to Europe this summer.

8-19 to 8-23 BDL-MAD $223 AI for my entire family of 4

Then I booked MKE-MAD $267 AI for my mother to join us on the same dates

Then I booked BDL-ZRH 9/18 - 9/20 for $303 AI for just me.


So, check NWA.com if you can't find on Delta.com

Kayak is bringing up some $288 JFK-ZRH itineraries, but they involve codeshares (e.g., CSA over, AF back). 5Nov-10Nov just showed availability...

Anyone else headed to ZRH 25Sep?

DL: WAS-ATH, MXP, Pisa, Venice, etc. $320 - $400 a.i.

Folks these are crazy cheap fares. Almost as cheap in the summer, many in the low $300s for autumn. Several cities in France and Italy, and Athens, Greece have all been available.

Unfortunately, it took me 2 hours to get home and another 2 hours to book my ticket (long story), so many of these fares appear to be fading already (hopefully they'll come back this evening). I just found and booked a $384 RT from IAD to ATH though (sept. 24-27), so it's still worth trying.

10K JFK-ZRH bonus...

Anyone have a working link? This is the response to the link posted earlier in the thread:

"I'm sorry, your session has expired. Please start your enrollment again"

Before asking, yes it was entered (four times) correctly with the same response. Help??
