SMOKING HOT! RUN! JFK To Tel Aviv Nonstop For $550.97 Round Trip On Delta!
Update #2, 1:45pm: DEAD!
————————————————————–
Update, 1:25pm: This has just disappeared from ITA, but is still bookable from Orbitz if you hurry!
————————————————————–
-Bookable now on Orbitz, which offers regular mileage earning, price assurance refunds and more importantly free cancellations until 11pm ET the day after you book. (I.E. Book at 1:00am and have 46 hours to cancel for free), or you can book direct from the airline.
Bookable for select dates in January-March.
Book now and think later, this will not last long! You can always cancel tomorrow night!
Sample dates:
01/10-01/24
01/13-01/21
01/27-02/04
02/10-02/18
02/24-03/04
03/04-03/17
03/17-04/08
To help find other valid dates check the Orbitz box to search “3 days before and after” to help find other valid dates.
Or I highly recommend that you read about using ITA Software and use their awesome month-long calendar search to help find dates with cheap flights.
————————————————————–
Follow @DansDeals on twitter and you’ll get a tweet when a deal is posted on DansDeals.com!
You can even set up your mobile device to receive text messages (and choose which hours of the night not to bother you). After setting up your device be sure to opt into mobile notifications from DansDeals (it’s in the drop-down menu next to the blue “Following” button), so that you will never again be kicking yourself for missing a crazy deal!

December 21st, 2012 at 1:20 pm
Thanks for telling us about this! When you say bookable from January through March do you mean that it can only be booked then or can only be used for travel then?
5
December 21st, 2012 at 1:21 pm
Did anyone do it
6
December 21st, 2012 at 1:24 pm
I just went to BOTH the Orbitz and Delta sites and could not find those prices….

December 21st, 2012 at 1:24 pm
Works on Orbitz for me still.

December 21st, 2012 at 1:27 pm
Thanks so much!! Just booked!!
15
December 21st, 2012 at 1:27 pm
apparently, the LATEST departure date that you can book is 3/17… When I tried 3/17 (which actually does not work for me) then I got the cheap fare. BUT, when I booked 3/20 — then I got an EXPENSIVE fare…
16
December 21st, 2012 at 1:28 pm
BOOKED, i love you dan
17
December 21st, 2012 at 1:28 pm
Am I able to book this deal if I already traveled with a ticket on the last dans deals exclusive deal with elal? the post does not specify if I can redeem to deals with dan group? or should I try booking and follow dans advice to call and hang up on the reps (HUCA), or is this something that my mileage may vary (YMMV) because delta flies a different route thus giving a different mileage amount?
Thank you dan for arranging such great deals for us, and educating us in the deal world! I applied to capital one following you advice being that they have one of the best cards out there with double miles, I am sure dan is proud of me getting double miles, the starwood card dosnt even give double miles. Dan the teacher has now became the student.

I’m looking for cheap flights to Florida. Any ideas?
22
December 21st, 2012 at 1:30 pm
Can you change the name on a ticket afterwards?
23
December 21st, 2012 at 1:30 pm
think I saw the 500.85 r/t price b/c I had kids in the itenerary. When i seaarch for adults only it shows 550
24
December 21st, 2012 at 1:32 pm
Trying to book 1/7 to 1/17 not much luck . Any suggestions?
25
December 21st, 2012 at 1:32 pm
Apparently, WHEN you return also makes a difference. When I checked a return date of 3/April, (leaving 3/17), the price was over $700-… But, with a return date of 8-April, the cheaper fare popped up…
26
December 21st, 2012 at 1:32 pm
If you book a few tickets, can cancel only some or would I have to cancel all of it?
27
December 21st, 2012 at 1:32 pm
