Skip spending that extra cash on an outfit from Newbury Street or a Friday night out in Harvard Square and head to Iceland for the weekend instead. Using WOW air's current Cyber Monday promotion, you can fly nonstop to Reykjavik, Iceland from Boston for only $185 roundtrip on a handful of weekends this winter.

Other midweek travel dates are available for even less, but if you're looking for a long weekend away to try and get a glimpse of the Northern Lights, this is the deal for you. The promo code: WOWCYBERMONDAY is expiring tonight, so make sure to take advantage of this deal while it lasts!

Searching on the WOW air website, I was able to find a weekend trip spanning over Friday, January 25 and returning to BOS on Monday, January 28, 2019. Other weekends are available at similar prices throughout the winter.

Flights are cheaper than a two-day pass at most New England ski resorts, so try someplace new this January. Keep in mind these fares only include a personal item like a small purse or backpack so wear your bulky clothes on the plane. Then pack just a couple pieces of warm clothes for your two to three days there, and you'll be all set.
