New York – Salt Lake City $217 Roundtrip on Delta or JetBlue
Show off your style on the slopes and shred on over to Salt Lake City. Fly nonstop from New York-JFK to Salt Lake City for $217 roundtrip this fall or winter. Delta and JetBlue are going head-to-head with each other on this route, and that means some sweet savings for skiers and snowboarders. Departures are valid on most weekdays starting in late October with returns available through the end of April. As an example, I found seats on Delta departing JFK on Friday, February 21, and returning from SLC on Wednesday, February 26, 2020. Perfect for an extended weekend away from the city enjoying après ski.

Los Angeles – Taipei $358 Roundtrip on Xiamen Airlines
On Wednesday we mentioned this phenomenal price drop from LAX to Seoul for $365 roundtrip, and here’s another fantastic fare from Xiamen Airlines. This time to Taiwan! Fly from Los Angeles to Taipei for $358 roundtrip on select dates between late September and early December. Some itineraries may require two connections, but there are options with only on stop if you depart on Sunday and return on Tuesday and Thursdays. I found seats at this price departing LAX on Sunday, November 10, and returning from TPE on Thursday, November 21, 2020. This is nearly half the price of what EVA and China Airlines are offering on nonstop flights.

For Bostonians wanting to warm themselves up with some Nashville hot chicken this winter and work on their two-step down on “Honky Tonk Row," this fare also works in reverse. Peak holiday dates blacked out.
