Dallas – Chicago $111 Roundtrip, Travel August through November
Both American and United Airlines are offering cheap nonstop fares from Dallas to Chicago for $111 roundtrip this summer and fall. Unfortunately, this great fare comes with a catch; it's in Basic Economy, so a small backpack or purse is the only baggage included. Flights are available most days of the week, but you’ll have the best luck on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturdays. On Google Flights, I found fares at this price departing DFW on Wednesday, August 15, and returning from ORD on Tuesday, August 21, 2018.

Searching on the Swiss Air website, I found seats departing JFK on Friday, November 9, and returning from DME on Friday, November 23, 2018.

Buffalo – Phoenix $228 Roundtrip, Travel August through November
Head down to sunny Phoenix from Buffalo in late summer or fall with United Airlines for $228 roundtrip.

I was able to find seats at this price departing BUF on Tuesday, October 23, and returning from PHX on Saturday, November 3, 2018.

Chicago – Los Angeles $189 Roundtrip, Travel September and October
Here’s a great deal on a popular route, fly nonstop from Chicago ORD to Los Angeles for $189 roundtrip on United Airlines. Flights at this price can be found in September and into the first week of October. I was able to find seats departing ORD on Wednesday, September 5 and returning from LAX on Monday, September 10, 2018. Again, this fare is one of those Basic Economy fares; so make sure you pack lightly if you want to take advantage of this price drop. Regular economy is over a hundred dollars more, so I’d skip that offering. Stick with the Basic fare and pay to check a bag if needed.
