If you’re looking to get away somewhere warm next winter, you’ll want to pay attention to this award alert. We’ve found wide-open availability in business class from various East Coast cities to Aruba for winter and early spring travel.

Here are the details of this exciting award alert.

Award Alert — Details

Aruba experiences warm and dry weather during the winter season, with temperatures similar to those in the summer but with lower humidity levels. It’s the peak season for tourists, but the weather is perfect for enjoying a variety of outdoor activities such as water sports, beach relaxation, and exploring the island’s natural and cultural attractions.

Now, our team has found excellent business class award availability for next winter and spring to get to Aruba in style.

  • Class: Business
  • Route: New York (JFK), Newark (EWR), Miami (MIA), Boston (BOS) to Aruba (AUA)
  • Airline: American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines
  • Cost: As few as 20,000 points (business class) and $15 in taxes & fees
  • Travel Dates: December through March 2025
  • Award Seats: Up to 9 passengers per route

With up to 9 seats per flight, this presents an amazing opportunity to travel to Aruba in business class and bring the entire family along.

How To Book

One nice aspect of this award deal is the flexibility to choose from a variety of airlines, such as American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, or United Airlines.

If you have some American Airlines AAdvantage miles sitting around, we’re seeing a bunch of dates available from Miami (MIA) to Aruba, with up to 9 award seats available per flight for only 20,000 miles in business class!

So, if you need more American Airlines miles, you can transfer points from Marriott Bonvoy (3:1 ratio) or consider applying for an American Airlines co-branded credit card.

Maybe you have Delta SkyMiles to spare and want to ring in 2025 in the sun. Well, you can enjoy the 4+ hour journey in the front of the plane from Boston (BOS) to Aruba, with rates starting at 39,000 miles.

If your balance of SkyMiles is low, you have the ability to top off your account since Delta is an American Express transfer partner at a 1:1 ratio.

You can also redeem United miles for a flight in business class from Newark (EWR) to Aruba for as few as 44,300 miles + $15.00 in taxes.
