If you want to capitalize on a rare $99 ticket from Boston to London, consider this flight on Sept. 15. It’s a nonstop, overnight journey, so you’ll technically arrive in the morning on Saturday, Sept. 16.
Returning flights aren’t as low as $99. However, they’re only about $100 more, which is still a great deal on a flight back from Europe. For example, if you return on Sept. 23, as shown above, you’ll pay just $197. This brings your round-trip total to $296.
