For a limited time, Delta Air Lines is offering a sale on award tickets in economy class across the U.S. You’ll need to act quickly, however, as the flash sale runs only through today, March 26, 2025.

Delta SkyMiles Flash Sale — The Details

The latest award sale from Delta SkyMiles lets you use fewer miles than normal to book economy seats across the U.S., including Hawaii and Alaska. Since Delta eliminated award charts a few years ago, it can be tough to know exactly how many miles you’ll need for a flight — or exactly how much of a discount you’re getting during this sale.

That said, there are some solid deals here, with round-trip awards starting at just 8,000 SkyMiles round-trip — or even less if you have a Delta co-branded credit card. Note that the lowest quoted prices are for basic economy tickets. Main Cabin fares start at 14,000 SkyMiles round-trip for the same flights. Eligible travel dates vary by destination, but these are clearly indicated when you sort through the eligible destinations on the promotion page.

You’ll find trips all across the U.S., and you can sort by your preferred departing airport to find deals. Luckily, the prices and eligible travel dates are shown clearly in the chart on the promotion page:

You can filter by origin or destination airport, as well as by cash or miles for pricingThe price you’ll see is for round-trip travel per person.

This sale is part of the Delta SkyMiles Flash Sale series, which can provide excellent discounts when redeeming your miles for flights.

However, it gets even better, because you can find even cheaper deals if you have a Delta SkyMiles credit card from American Express.

The promotion page quotes 8,000 SkyMiles round-trip for a basic economy ticket between San Francisco (SFO) and Seattle (SEA). However, with a Delta co-branded credit card, that price drops to just 6,800 SkyMiles. In Main Cabin, the ticket would cost 11,900 SkyMiles. Each ticket carries taxes and fees of $11.20 round-trip.

If you need more SkyMiles in your account, you can transfer American Express Membership Rewards points at a 1:1 ratio, and transfers are typically instant.

Hot Tip:

Did you know 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

Today only, March 26, you can save handsomely on Delta economy award tickets across the U.S. If you have a Delta co-branded credit card, the deals become even sweeter, thanks to an extra 15% discount on the number of miles required for these flights, creating some excellent value.
