Be thankful this week for some cheap airfare deals! While it’s a little too late in the game to score a bargain for this week’s festivities, it doesn’t mean you can’t buy a future flight to visit friends and family. Following is a list of the top 10 fares that we deal hounds have sniffed-out so far today. There are even some flights below on sale departing as soon as next week. Just hope the leftovers are still good!
Monday’s Top Ten Fare Deals
These top airfares are ringing in at prices below what we usually see for the specific airport pairings and destinations. Some of these fares are a part of listed sales, and some are unadvertised deals that generally last for a short time. So, if any of these top deals pique your interest, we recommend booking on the double to avoid missing out on a bargain buy.
Chicago – New York $105 Roundtrip on Delta and United

Newark – Melbourne $713 Roundtrip on United
Australia has been on sale lately, and some airlines are putting out some unadvertised deals that are the lowest we’ve seen in months. Here’s one of them from United. Fly from Newark to Melbourne for $713 roundtrip with only one connection. Flights are available year-round with departures available Monday through Thursday. This fare won’t last for long, so get booking if you’ve had Oz on your bucket list. With dates wide-open, you shouldn't have any problems finding times that work for you. Searching on the United site, I found tickets departing EWR on Monday, February 11 and returning from MEL on Monday, February 25, 2019. Which is perfect timing, visit during Australian summer and avoid the chill of Jersey in February.

Boston – Burbank $237 Roundtrip on JetBlue
Go coast-to-coast on one of JetBlue’s newer routes, fly nonstop from Boston to Burbank for $237 roundtrip. Avoid the congestion at LAX and opt for Burbank instead, flights to this easy to reach airport are available daily starting in early January through early May. I noticed that January and February have the best availability, and was able to find an itinerary departing BOS on Friday, February 8 and returning from BUR on Sunday, February 17, 2019.

Houston – Rome $341 Roundtrip on Delta and SkyTeam Partners
Fly from Houston-IAH to Rome for $341 roundtrip on SkyTeam partners like Delta, Air France, and KLM. Daily flights at this price are valid from early January through the middle of May. If using a search site, make sure to book the same carrier in both directions, in many cases if you don't the price will jump up. Also, take note of itineraries that require a change of airport. This fare books into the basic economy fare bucket on all airlines, meaning no checked baggage is included in the price. Make sure to pack light, or you'll have to pony up $60 one-way for a checked piece of luggage. On Air France, I secured seats departing IAH on Tuesday, April 16 and returning from FCO on Tuesday, April 30, 2019.

Miami – Brussels $311 Roundtrip on TUI Fly
Not going to lie, here’s a nonstop route I didn’t even know existed until earlier today. Fly nonstop from Miami to Brussels for $311 roundtrip on TUI Fly Belgium.
