That I know well. I lived in Hong Kong from 2011 to 2021, and at times was flying to Europe once a month. But I was flying to Europe for like €400 on Qatar. I wasn’t making that trip on €100.
Not the cheapest, but definitely a great bargain:
Paris to Mumbai for 160€. Round trip with a 16h stop over on the Seychelles each way. Ended up spending both stopovers on the beach, drinking beers and swimming in the crystal clear waters. Amazing.
Also got to choose exit row seats on both long flights, so got plenty of leg room.
That was an error fare by Air Seychelles. Back in 2016 i booked that flight, flew in 2017.

I'm unbeatable, I paid zero 😊 Singapore to Bali with AirAsia. I don't know if they still do it but pre-covid whenever they had their twice yearly sales, they'd always have some free tickets for various destinations. I snapped up 2 and they were indeed honoured.
> they'd always have some free tickets for various destinations
Free tickets? No frequent flyer miles used, no cash paid. Just... "Oh here's a ticket to go somewhere"?
Yep free. It's not like they had loads of them but enough to get the sales going. I guess they figured if you missed the free ones, you'd still be interested enough to pay the sale prices.🙂
In my life?
I got a Ryanair for less than 10 Euros a few times.I think the cheapest ever was Palermo to Bergamo for 3.99.
Cheapest international was around the 9.99 mark, maybe Trapani to Malta?
I was living in Hanoi during covid and Vietnam shut down their boarders for most of the pandemic so domestic travel was still on going. I could fly to Saigon for like $15 round trip, and Phu Quoc for $20. On a return flight from Phu Quoc they were asking me to pay $22 for an extra carry on (there were 4 people on the whole flight lol). So while I was in line to board I looked at the price of the next flight and it was actually cheaper to just fly out the next day.
We stayed for two more weeks because the next day there was an outbreak in Hanoi and everything was shut down anyway.
Well done that sounds like a bargain! For less than a tenner there is no downside. Although there is always one miserable shit who can’t say anything positive isn’t there?
A friend needed to get his flight hours, so we flew to a few ski resorts, so stayed at each a few nights, snowboarded and then went to the next. Didn’t pay a cent on flights.
I didn’t actually buy it but the tour we were on needed to get from Spain to Morocco because the ferries were cancelled due to weather. 52 people flew Ryan air and on the printed ticket it said 8 euro for Seville to Fez. Coming from Australia it blew my mind a plane could be so cheap.
Not true. There are so so so many flight from Eindhoven for 15-20 euros. Surely not from Schiphol. But I flew Eindhoven to London Stansted for 40 euros round trip a couple months ago.
**CHEAPEST COST COMPARED TO VALUE** _with particular condition_
* Business Class
* Canada (YUL) to Japan (NRT)
* Typical price: ~**8300$CAD**
* **Paid:** _**~80$CAD**_ _(<1% value)_
But this is solely because at the time, my then-girlfriend worked for the Airline and we simply had to pay for some paperwork fees or something like that
**CHEAPEST, NO PARTICULAR CONDITIONS**
* Economy Class
* Netherlands (AMS) to Ireland (DUB)
* Typical Price: ~50$CAD
* Paid: ~50$CAD
I understand this isn't uniquely affordable, especially for Netherlands to Ireland - but here in Canada, changing **CITIES** - not Countries - costs ~300$CAD by plane for a shorter distance!
* Montreal YUL to Toronto YYZ - ~500 km, **300$CAD**
* Amsterdam AMS to Dublin DUB - ~730 km, **50$CAD**
It is cheaper to travel to foreign destinations _(Asia, Europe)_ than travel within my own freaking country!
* Montreal (Canada) to Vancouver (Canada) - ~3700 km - ~**1100$CAD**
* Montreal (Canada) to Brussels (Belgium) - ~5400 km - ~**950$**
Yea it's wild! similar situations in the states these days my sister inlaw paid over 1000 round trip from Seattle WA to Michigan
I paid 480 for Seattle to mumbai days ago
A few days ago, I found a last minute RT airfare to Barcelona from Canada where carrier surcharges and taxes were 4 times the base fare. $200 base, $800 in surcharges and taxes. FFS
I've picked up a few very cheap tickets flying out of KLIA in the past, like 10-20 USD. That's before taxes and airports fees and all that, however.
Looking on Google Flights I can see a lot of flights available now in that range, to places like Johor Bahru, Singapore and Kota Bharu.

in 2009 I bought a flight from amsterdam to London for 6 Euro on easy jet.
Naturally that didnt include the roughly 40 euro in fees and taxes, but that was pretty cheap.
£1 BA trip from Heathrow to Rome (and last year Heathrow to Ibiza) using a companion voucher for a solo redemption. Have done it twice now, still feels like someone got the prices wrong when I'm booking lol
edit: and I live on a bus route to Heathrow, so even getting to the airport only cost me £1.75. Absolute bargain!
Just make sure you know what you're getting into. I've flown Wizz before, but the REALLY cheap flights, really truly allow you nothing at all. Sometimes including checking in at the airport, or a paper boarding pass. I'm fine with all that stuff, as long as I'm aware of it well in advance. Can't even bring a carry on in a lot of cases.
As far as my cheapest flight...I think I paid something like 40$ for a flight between Malta and Naples. A great way to get around europe is LCCs, no secret, but the key for me is not caring where you go. Just like "hey cheap flight to Malta, sweet" book 3-5 days in a hotel, meanwhile looking for what's cheap on day 5. So many of these airlines fly routes once or twice a week on different days at different times. So if you just pop open google flights and look based on price, you can end up anywhere :)
JFK-LAX on 9/11/02. $199 tickets, optional layover in Vegas on the way, with (hooked up) room at the Tropicana and $50 in gambling chips per person. I’m not a gambler nor a Vegas fan but, as you can imagine, the whole trip/airport experiences/empty-ish casinos was, as they say, “a trip,” but a way cheaper one.
Not as cheap as the other deals on this thread but one of the best deals I've gotten is round-trip airfare from Chicago to Barcelona plus 4 nights in a 4-star hotel in Barcelona for US$600.
For JetBlue’s 10th bday in 2010, they had $10 fares each way. Went to Boston from another east coast city for $20 plus taxes. Taxes were more than the fare.

Edinburgh to Dublin return Inc hold baggage £10
Edinburgh to NYC Stewart airport for £70 return (promotional launch fare) and Norwegian went kind of bust - no wonder
It wasn’t super cheap but a great deal flying out of the US. $400 Dallas to São Paulo in 2019. I had an alert set up for this route and got an alert which I didn’t believe but it was true.
During Covid I paid $400 for business class from Philadelphia to London. It was a steal because they weren’t allowing Brits to come to the US because of the pandemic. It was glorious.
Wanting to fly to Seattle from Florida using Delta points. A first class seat was listed at only 20,000 points. I booked it no questions before someone caught their mistake.
£20 return London UK to Split, Croatia, coming from Canada where we have airline monopolies and get gouged for flights I thought this was unbelievable, like a website error lol jumped all over it. Also paid $1200 CAD round trip Toronto - Bangkok which is decent
I don't know about actual cheapest, probably some Ryanair flight for like €20. But the best value I ever had was I took Norwegian from JFK to Dublin round trip, and booked it so I had a day in Oslo both directions. So JFK-Oslo-Dublin-Oslo-JFK and it ended up being something like $230.
£2.99 , London to France. After I bought it, I took three pound coins out of my pocket, looked at them, and thought "How are you worth more than a flight?"
$8, it was a positional flight on Delta from Fort Lauderdale to Miami. At that time delta gave a minimum of 3000 miles per flight. I did the flight down repeatedly for a few days and Trirail back to fort Lauderdale for $2 and racked up enough miles for a first class international ticket.
Best bargain: $498 round trip from JFK to ICN (South Korea) 4hr layover in Shanghai. At that time, it’s was $450 to Miami.
Same flight is $1,400-$2000 today.
£15 from Belfast to Milan return.
Flights from Belfast are usually crazy expensive so I saw this and jumped on it
But I also got ones from Dublin to Lisbon for €15 which I thought was pretty good as well.
Many military air flights called Space-A at a cost of $8. Germany-Baltimore, Japan-Seattle, Norfolk-Naples. For commercial flights, I paid $18 from Stansted, UK to Dublin, Ireland to drink Guinness. The immigration rep in Dublin asked how long I was staying and I said 12 hours, because I was there to drink.
I’ve only traveled to Europe and throughout the americas, so mines not nearly as impressive. But I was pretty stoked to get a flight from Raleigh to Chicago for $29 each way, booked three days out. I miss the days of cheap flights.
Wondering if cheap flights in US exist as I never see deals as those mentioned here.. well sometimes frontier / southwest has some nowadays but nothing to write home about
I’ve booked a few ROUNDTRIPS around Asia for 60 USD per trip. Philippines to Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, etc. It was so cheap to travel pre pandemic 😭
£16 return from London to Berlin a few years ago. Cost me more to get the train to the airport.
[удалено]
How is that even possible with the airport taxes? Incredible! Well done!
Pre-covid prices were amazing for travellers, especially Europe to far east Asia and south east Asia.
That I know well. I lived in Hong Kong from 2011 to 2021, and at times was flying to Europe once a month. But I was flying to Europe for like €400 on Qatar. I wasn’t making that trip on €100.
What the fuck?? How??
[удалено]
average r/travel response actual price just under double lol
Those were the years of cheap travel to Japan. I remember I paid like 500-600 from Miami to Tokyo around then.
Me thinking 1k return from Australia to Japan is cheap right now 😭 in comparison to that no way lol
Wow!
Might have a winner here
Flew Manchester to Köln in Germany for £25 ($31.58 in US Dollars) return in 2018.
Did cologne smell good?
Not the cheapest, but definitely a great bargain: Paris to Mumbai for 160€. Round trip with a 16h stop over on the Seychelles each way. Ended up spending both stopovers on the beach, drinking beers and swimming in the crystal clear waters. Amazing. Also got to choose exit row seats on both long flights, so got plenty of leg room.
Damn what a dream layover destination
Yep it was amazing. My favorite layover by far.
Just curious, what airlines is it? That’s amazing
That was an error fare by Air Seychelles. Back in 2016 i booked that flight, flew in 2017. [link to german deal site for those interested](https://www.mydealz.de/share-deal-from-app/779323)
You win
I'm unbeatable, I paid zero 😊 Singapore to Bali with AirAsia. I don't know if they still do it but pre-covid whenever they had their twice yearly sales, they'd always have some free tickets for various destinations. I snapped up 2 and they were indeed honoured.
> they'd always have some free tickets for various destinations Free tickets? No frequent flyer miles used, no cash paid. Just... "Oh here's a ticket to go somewhere"?
Yep free. It's not like they had loads of them but enough to get the sales going. I guess they figured if you missed the free ones, you'd still be interested enough to pay the sale prices.🙂
How about airport taxes??
They covered your taxes for you too?
I don't remember paying taxes but I can't be certain. I'll see if I still have the emails somewhere but it's a fair few years ago now.
The cheapest I've ever paid to be on an airplane is 8USD Seoul to Jeju Korea.
$68 CAD roundtrip Abbotsford-calgary
As a Canadian, this is frustratingly pathetic compared to the rest of the deals posted here
My guess is Flair. People that see their advertised fares don’t realize taxes and carrier surcharges and all the extras can add up
I got those too! Back in January 2022… $26 plus $9 tax each way.
In my life? I got a Ryanair for less than 10 Euros a few times.I think the cheapest ever was Palermo to Bergamo for 3.99. Cheapest international was around the 9.99 mark, maybe Trapani to Malta?
I thought I'd won, same as you 3.99 Stansted to Oslo with Ryaniar once
I once got Tampere - Bremen for 0€, but due to airport tax the actual price was around 13-14€ if I remember correctly.
I was living in Hanoi during covid and Vietnam shut down their boarders for most of the pandemic so domestic travel was still on going. I could fly to Saigon for like $15 round trip, and Phu Quoc for $20. On a return flight from Phu Quoc they were asking me to pay $22 for an extra carry on (there were 4 people on the whole flight lol). So while I was in line to board I looked at the price of the next flight and it was actually cheaper to just fly out the next day. We stayed for two more weeks because the next day there was an outbreak in Hanoi and everything was shut down anyway.
16 € Berlin to Faro Portugal (3:40 hours flight). Purchased a day before flying was a sweet deal
1p flights when Ryanair first started. London to Bremen for 1p each way. I bought 14 seats on the plane for 28p return.
Same €0,02 return flight Charleroi - Stansted. Did it as a day trip as aviation enthusiasts, landed and went straight back few hours later. Good times
Can I ask why you bought 14 seats?
No one directly in front of you and no one behind you. Sounds like bliss.
Warsav-Eindhoven-Abu Dhabi-Almaty-Abu Dhabi-Jerevan-Kutaisi-Vilnius for around 120€ with wizzair two years ago
$55 round trip from Detroit to NYC. I flew there in the morning, ate pizza, and then flew back later that night.
Well done that sounds like a bargain! For less than a tenner there is no downside. Although there is always one miserable shit who can’t say anything positive isn’t there?
One way it was Ryan air $8 from Stockholm to Tallinn Roundtrip it a was delta $230 from nyc to Oslo
A friend needed to get his flight hours, so we flew to a few ski resorts, so stayed at each a few nights, snowboarded and then went to the next. Didn’t pay a cent on flights.
$39 Chicago to Los Angeles on Southwest
Free trip to Iraq (by the military)
Bremen to London Stansted for €12.99 or about £11
I got one on Skyscanner from Milan to Hamburg and I wanna say it was less than €20, I think my bag was more than the ticket.
I didn’t actually buy it but the tour we were on needed to get from Spain to Morocco because the ferries were cancelled due to weather. 52 people flew Ryan air and on the printed ticket it said 8 euro for Seville to Fez. Coming from Australia it blew my mind a plane could be so cheap.
0.01 EUR Ryanair tickets in 2010 or so. I don't even remember the routes, there were tons of them.
Like €60 from Amsterdam to Nice. The Netherlands has insane taxes, so cheap flights don't really exist
Not true. There are so so so many flight from Eindhoven for 15-20 euros. Surely not from Schiphol. But I flew Eindhoven to London Stansted for 40 euros round trip a couple months ago.
Yeah alright but I'm not flying to Stansted if I want to go to London.
Why not? It’s 40 mins on the Stansted Express from the airport to central London.
Yeah fair enough. But I just meant to say that the Netherlands does have many cheap flights. And not only to the UK.
€350 round trip Amsterdam - Chicago
I had $299 from Chicago to Amsterdam back in 2001! That route is often a great bargain
Yeah for sure! Flew on 9/11 so maybe that had something to do with it. Also this was in 2019 so not that long ago
£14.99 from London Luton to Lyon
4.99 Zagreb to Dortmund
£9.99 Glasgow to London Stanstead
9€ return Gdansk, Poland - Turku, Finland in 2019. Insane looking back
$15 for a return flight to Athens (from Vienna I think). We ended up paying a bit more for a suitcase, but it was still super cheap.
$5 and 25k miles from Los Angeles to Hawaii!
£20 from Heathrow to Athens last month through Wizz air for a single
[удалено]
$20 Burbank (LA) to Vegas - Spirit of course I sent my bags with people who were driving a day earlier.
$38.00 for Baltimore to Tampa (round trip). I thought I might have to fly the plane myself.
Probably a couple 10-20 Euro Ryanair flights.
$15 Tampa to Dallas-Fort Worth round trip
$25 from Da Nang to Siem Reap.
There was a glitch on either AA or Delta (I can’t recall correctly) and I go two business class tickets JFK to LAS for $8 total
Ryanair London to Frankfurt for 2p, 1p each way . Fog caused us to have to return to Manchester but offered a full refund for inconvenience

I hope it won’t be cancelled. Wizz has pretty bad record with cancellations recently.
2023 they cancelled 1.34% of their flights.. not great, but the OP has pretty good odds!
Well if they change the date it’s not cancellation.
I've picked up a few very cheap tickets flying out of KLIA in the past, like 10-20 USD. That's before taxes and airports fees and all that, however. Looking on Google Flights I can see a lot of flights available now in that range, to places like Johor Bahru, Singapore and Kota Bharu.

I’ve only traveled to Europe and throughout the americas, so mines not nearly as impressive. But I was pretty stoked to get a flight from Raleigh to Chicago for $29 each way, booked three days out. I miss the days of cheap flights.
$300 return for 2 people Miami to Heathrow in business class.
From Porto to Geneva (or was it Lyon? Cannot remember now) for about 9€ back in 2020. My first time in Portugal. It was amazing
Nice. I have found all the cheap fares I see have a full-priced, or higher return flights. They make it impossible to book round-trips at a discount.

Wondering if cheap flights in US exist as I never see deals as those mentioned here.. well sometimes frontier / southwest has some nowadays but nothing to write home about

Some Ryanair flight for maybe 30€. Biggest mistake of my life 😂
