Then, you’ll get a 50% off promo code that is valid to use from October 17th through November 23rd, 2023 (that’s the time period you’ll have to purchase your next flight). This second round of travel must be completed between January 8th and March 6th, 2024 (and some blackout dates apply, specifically 2/15-2/19, 2/23-2/25, & 3/3/24).
