American Airlines has a pretty good sale to Europe right now and if you jump on this deal quickly, you can snag flights from the U. S. to many destinations in Europe from $441 roundtrip, inclusive of taxes and fees. I haven’t seen prices this low in years so if you can make the dates work, and don’t mind basic economy tickets, then this is a great time to book flights for cities like Amsterdam, Barcelona, Dublin, London, Madrid, and Paris. And with this being shoulder season, these cities will be less crowded and hotel rates will be more affordable than during the peak summer season. However, these prices are for Basic Economy tickets, which may NOT include complimentary seat assignments or checked bags. They may also have additional restrictions so make sure to read the details of each operating carrier before booking. Regular economy class tickets are available for a slightly higher price.
Here are some sample prices.
- U.S. to Spain from $441
- U.S. to Amsterdam and Dublin from $499
- U.S. to Germany from $549

American Airlines Sale to Europe Bottom Line
Overall, this is a pretty good sale for Europe if you can make the dates work. The only downside to this sale is that it’s for basic economy tickets only, which come with a lot of restrictions. However, if you can travel light and don’t mind where you are seated, then this is an affordable way to see some cool destinations in Europe.
