Delta just launched a new SkyMiles flash sale, and it’s a good one. Through October 23, 2025, you can book domestic round-trip flights starting at just 6,600 SkyMiles and international routes from as low as 8,000 SkyMiles. Deals like these don’t pop up often — and with limited seats available, it’s smart to book as soon as possible before the sale wraps up.

Here’s a look at what routes you can book.

Delta SkyMiles Flash Sale — The Details

Delta Air Lines’ latest flash sale is valid for basic economy and Main Cabin tickets on a slew of domestic and international routes, starting at just 6,600 SkyMiles round-trip in basic economy. However, you can get these flights even cheaper — spending 15% fewer miles — if you hold a Delta co-branded credit card!

Here’s a look at the details:

  • Class: Basic economy and Main Cabin
  • Routes: Domestic and International
  • Cost: From 6,600 miles round-trip in basic economy, 11,000 in Main Cabin (5,600 or 9,400 miles if you have a Delta co-branded credit card) plus taxes and fees
  • Travel dates: November 2025 to February 2026

How To Book

This sale is published on Delta’s SkyMiles Award Deals page, so you can log in and book them like any other Delta award ticket. You’ll see origin, destination, sale dates, and round-trip rates, so plug in some of your travel plans and price out awards.

You’ll be greeted with a calendar view when you run your search. This will help you find the cheapest award tickets. Note that if you have an eligible Delta co-branded credit card, your TakeOff 15 discount will be shown automatically.

From there, pick the dates that work best for you and follow the on-screen prompts to book your ticket.

If you need to earn more SkyMiles, you can transfer American Express Membership Rewards points at a 1:1 ratio. Transfers are typically instant. However, we don’t usually recommend transferring points to Delta since the program can charge astronomical rates for award seats. But with rates this low, it could make sense if you don’t have enough miles in your account.

Hot Tip:

Delta Amex cardholders can get 15% off award prices when redeeming Delta SkyMiles for Delta flights. It’s a quality benefit you can use as many times as you wish.

Final Thoughts

This latest SkyMiles flash sale is a great opportunity if you’ve been holding onto points and waiting for the right time to redeem them. With domestic flights starting at just 6,600 SkyMiles round-trip (or even less if you have a Delta co-branded credit card), you can stretch your balance further and still get solid value. Since the sale ends October 23, 2025, it’s worth browsing the deals now — these limited-time rates tend to disappear fast once word gets out.
