A great deal has appeared! Â You can fly to London, England from San Francisco, CA for only $443 on United if you don’t mind Basic Economy. Â If you prefer Regular Economy, the fare jumps almost by $200 up to $623.
United’s Basic Economy isn’t terrible. Â According to the Flight Deal:
United and its partners Air Canada, Austrian, Lufthansa and Swiss Air also have a $443 fare, but that is a Basic Economy fare. There are slightly variations but the one common theme across all these airlines with European Basic Economy fares, you will pay $60 each way for ONE checked luggage, more for additional bags.
United’s version of Basic Economy for European travel includes:
-
Advance seat assignment
-
One normal size carry-on plus one personal item
As always, the Flight Deal has the details.

This process involves signing up for twitter.  Even if you won’t be an active user of twitter, it’s a good idea to have an account to take advantage of deals on contests in general.
You can see my post on this here.
I recommend following them even if you aren’t in those areas because they are gateway cities. There’s a lot of good international deals–worth the effort flying out to the gateway.
