Update, 1:05am: This deal is now dead.
You can still use the Alitalia USA site and save 25% on flights booked there.

Follow @DansDeals on twitter and you’ll get a tweet when a deal is posted on DansDeals.com! You can even opt-in to get a text message (and choose which hours of the night not to bother you) whenever DansDeals.com is updated!
———————————————————————
You can save 25,000 Japanese Yen, currently $315.18, on any tickets booked on Alitalia Japan.
The site is in Japanese but you can just open the page using Google’s Chrome browser and it will translate the page to English. You can also have the english version of Alitalia.com open in a different browser to help you as the sites are very similar.
Use the following “E-Coupon” code on the Alitalia Japan site after selecting your flights: PROMOJP
Travel must be booked by 10/26 and begin between 11/05/12 and 03/27/13.
Blackout dates are 12/20/12-01/06/13.
Beware that this can be pulled at any time and Alitalia can always attempt to cancel people’s tickets.
This will be a better deal than the 25% off code for any tickets that are under $1,260.
——————————————————————–
If you want just one short stop you can save $315.
All Alitalia flights from the US go through Rome or Milan.
-For example searching for JFK-Tel Aviv on 12/02-12/10 the regular Alitalia site prices the ticket out at $1,018.40. With 25% off it is $763.80.
The Japanese site prices it at ¥80,980 which is currently $1,020.93. With ¥25,000 off it is ¥55,980 which is currently $705.74.
Here is a sample valid itinerary for $705:
New York (JFK) to Rome (FCO) – Sun, Dec 2 Dep: 5:55PM-Arr: 8:10AM
Rome (FCO) to Tel Aviv (TLV) – Mon, Dec 3 Dep: 11:45AM-Arr: 4:05PM
Tel Aviv (TLV) to Rome (FCO) – Mon, Dec 10 Dep: 5:30AM-Arr: 8:20AM
Rome (FCO) to New York (JFK) – Mon, Dec 10 Dep: 10:10AM-Arr: 2:00PM
-Miami-Tel Aviv on 12/03-12/09 for example is ¥52,380 with the ¥25,000 discount or $660 round-trip with tax.
——————————————————————–
Of course with a $315 discount per ticket booked you can book 2 separate tickets to save $630. This will mean 3 total stops.
For example:
-Ticket #1: JFK to Madrid from 11/21-11/29 is ¥24,340 after the ¥25,000 discount or just $306.86 round-trip with tax.
-Ticket #2: Madrid to Tel Aviv from 11/22-11/28 is ¥7,320 after the ¥25,000 discount or just $92.28 round-trip with tax.
Or even cheaper:
-JFK to Madrid from 01/27-02/07 is ¥22,540 after the ¥25,000 discount or just $284.16 round-trip with tax.
-Madrid to Tel Aviv from 01/28-02/06 is ¥7,320 after the ¥25,000 discount or just $92.28 round-trip with tax.
The total from JFK to Tel Aviv would thus be $376 round-trip with tax. I’m sure there are other places besides Madrid to play this game with and such a flight would mean flying from JFK-Rome-Madrid-Rome-Tel Aviv-Rome-Madrid-Rome-JFK. Hardly ideal, but doable I suppose.
There are connections available for the flights to Tel Aviv but on the return you would have to spend at least a night (well, technically) 6 hours in Madrid, though of course you could also stay longer.
Here is a sample valid itinerary for $376:
New York (JFK) to Rome (FCO) – Sun, Jan 27, Dep: 5:55PM-Arr: 8:10AM
Rome (FCO) to Madrid (MAD) – Mon, Jan 28, Dep: 8:55AM-Arr: 11:30AM
Madrid (MAD) to Rome (FCO) – Mon, Jan 28, Dep: 5:45PM-Arr: 8:15PM
Rome (FCO) to Tel Aviv (TLV) – Mon, Jan 28 Dep: 10:15PM-Arr: 2:35AM
Tel Aviv (TLV) to Rome (FCO) – Wed, Feb 6 Dep: 2:50PM-Arr: 5:40PM
Rome (FCO) to Madrid (MAD) – Wed, Feb 6 Dep: 9:15PM-Arr: 11:50PM
Madrid (MAD) to Rome (FCO) – Thu, Feb 7 Dep: 6:00AM-Arr: 8:25AM
Rome (FCO) to New York (JFK) – Thu, Feb 7 Dep: 10:10AM-Arr: 2:00PM

Want to find cheap flights with flexible dates? You can even search for flights from your closest departure airports to anywhere in Europe! Just type in an airport and use the nearby airports functionality and increase the default mileage range and then select all of them! You will want to uncheck “allow airport changes” if you don’t want it to search for flights that arrive in one city and leave from another.
Post a comment with deals you find!
Read about using ITA Software here and use the following advanced routing code to limit the calendar search to only Alitalia flights: AZ+
Remember to use the code in both the departure and return fields.
Once you find a deal on ITA just plugin those dates onto the Alitalia site.

whats with jfk-rome rt and rome-tlv rt ?
@sruly:
Trust me I thought of that but couldn’t get it to work.
JFK-Rome is about $899-$315=About $584.
Rome-Tel Aviv is about $533-$315=About $218.
Total is about $802, or $100 more than just booking JFK-TLV in one ticket.
Thus the need for the Madrid shenanigans. Great deal though if you want to do Tel Aviv and Madrid.
will i get the discount booking a one way ticket
Anyone booked yet? I’m trying, see its not so simple.
USA -TLV is not really a bargain with this code!
Please advise how i can open the japanese alitalia site in english?
what do you mean by opening with google chrome?
Do they fly domestically ?
How does this work?? How much is a ticket from JFK-TLV??
Can I assume that this code will also only work for actual AZ flights and not for DL domestic flights booked through them?
@curious:
Yes, but I didn’t see any good one-way deals.
@Menachem:
Not too hard really.
@Jason:
$700 with 1 stop is a very good deal.
$399 with lots of stops is an excellent deal if you have patience.
You’ll earn lots of Skyteam miles!
@MOSHE:
Go to the site using Google’s Chrome browser.
@Ben:
Read the post.
@Yosef_S:
They only sell Alitalia flights.
@ Moshe, use Google Chrome and it will translate the site..
I’m not seeing ANY direct flights
@MOSHE: With google chrome they do the site translation for you. maybe, with no need to another translation option.
I’m usually pretty savvy with these things, but I would love to know if anybody can get this to work, tried but I’m not having any success anywhere near those prices.
How much will it be from JFk-TLV $?
cute madrid trick, worked for me!
Also, the Coupon Code doesn’t work at all on the English site. Will try again trying to navigate through the Japan site…
@Dan:
I dont care about having a million stopovers I just want to go to Israe. But I can’t get it to work! Can someone post step by step instructions?
@Ben JFK-TLV is in the $700 range
@JR:
To Tel Aviv? That would be because Alitalia doesn’t fly nonstop there!
@JR:
Why the heck would I send people to the Japanese site if it worked on the USA site?
@Jackie:
I did already.
Book a ticket JFK-Madrid-JFK for $306 round trip and Madrid-Tel Aviv-Madrid for $92 round trip.
Use ITA as instructed to help find cheap dates if you are having trouble.
@Ben, read above. About $300 R/T JFK-MAD and another $92 for the MAD-TLV R/T, total about $400 R/T JFK to TLV via MAD. I tried it Nov 27 to Dec 4, worked fine. All in Japanese, but the discount is terrific. Luck to you!
Dan, thanks so much”
Question: from the “JFK-Rome-Madrid-Rome-Tel Aviv-Rome-Madrid-Rome-JFK” why can’t I simply not show up to the “Rome-Madrid” portion each way? Will they void the entire ticket?
Tyvm!
I keep trying from ORD (that’s where I live) and nothing works. Does Alitalia not fly from Chicago? Shouldn’t they put me on Delta? Is this only workable from NYC?
I keep getting the message
Airport Name error
anyone know what to do?
You can also get the 25% on the american site with coupon code special
@Jay:
They will likely void the remainder of the ticket.
@BP:
You need to find flights on Alitalia.
I’m not sure if they serve ORD.
@Rachel:
Use the 3 digit airport codes.
JFK, TLV, FCO (Rome), MAD (Madrid), VCE (Venice), etc.
@Dan: You didn’t make it clear that there weren’t any direct flights. Also, I didn’t see the previous post about 25% off on Alitalia USA flights, so I thought it was all the same coupon code. A little respect toward your readers, maybe?
I think I’m getting it to work! Should I book seperate per each person?
How would this work with checking in baggage will u have to check it in again or is there a way to connect the flights?
@Brenda: I got a total of 376 round trip per person but I think it’s the same price when I put in 2 passengers…
Thanks so much. JFK to Madrid and then Madrid to TLV and then the reverse trip. Starting the trip Dec 4th and coming back December 20th $503.97 roundtrip.
This includes Chanukah (I chose these dates because of family)
Includes a few layovers and a lot of time, but it is still really cheap.
Dan, you are the man!
@JR: RESPECT.??? how about a THANK YOU maybe??
@Jr a little respect for Dan witch without him you wouldn’t have known any of these deals… PLEASE !
Hi, Can someone please give me ABC steps how to book this? I would like to go on 1/8/13, for 10-12 days , Thanks so much,
@Brenda: Can you please tell me how you did this?
Is there also specials for business class ?
It’s not working. You click search and nothing happens.
@yt:
As long as the flights aren’t too far apart you can check bags all the way through, even on different reservations.
@Brenda:
What dates are you seeing $376?
@Chanukah:
Enjoy Israel!

@eml:
@Brenda:
If you don’t fly to Madrid they’ll likely cancel the rest of the ticket.
@yuda:
Are you on the Japanese site?
@eddie:
Sure, use ITA like I explain to search good dates.
@SZR:
As long as the layover isn’t too long and you bring both printed copies of both reservations they should transfer the luggage.
This promo code is not valid ..
comment number 58 just wanna c how many this will get
is there any way for me to contact you?? i’m having trouble understanding japanese!!

can you please guide me to make this work with pesach dates, leaving JFK around 3/18-3/19? The price is much higher i think for pesach. i’m ready to book 5 tickets….
Can you just hang out in Rome and miss the Madrid leg
Hi Dan. Can you check if the code is correct? “PROMOJP” does not work.
@help:
Sorry for not being more explicit.
You leave JFK on December 4th 5:35pm and arrive in Madrid at 11:30am on the 5th (stopover in Rome). You leave Madrid at 12:20pm and arrive in Israel at 2:05am on the 6th (stopover in Rome again)
On the way back:
You leave Israel 5:15pm on the 19th and arrive in Madrid at 11:50pm (stopover in Rome). You leave Madrid at 6am on the 20th and arrive back at JFK at 3:20pm of the 20th (stopovers in Rome and Milan).
Lots of flights, time and stopovers, but it is $503 roundtrip to Israel.
Search for JFK – Madrid on 12/4 and 12/20, and Madrid – TLV 12/5 and 12/19 and this will all come up
Note: The following error has occurred.
This flight Alitalia – Italian airline is operated by partner airlines. Call us at 03-3568-1588 available regarding infant bookings (July 0-23 months).
@Sol:
I just tried it a minute ago and it is still working. Make sure you are on the right language site and putting it all in capitals.
Its a good deal for the winter
Anyone try this starting from TLV? Please post if you did and it worked. Thank you
the Promo Code only works from the Japanese website. I tried from JFK to TLV with a stopover in Rome, in January, total was 705 USD.
@cw:
Dan already said above that it ends on March 27th, which is the second day of Pesach so this deal won’t help you at all for the return flights for Pesach
I’m booked via Madrid for $376!
Can I stay in the airport for the 6 hours overnight? Or any cheap airport hotels?
hi dan thnx for post! stories like this, its me wife and infant, should i book 3 separate (any ideas for infnt?) also should each leg be round trip or one way…?
also does it work for milan

Max, What date did you put in?

@Chanukah: Promo code doesn’t work

@Chanukah:

I want to go for winter break jan 16 till the 27 and I am truly lost can anyone please guide me
can we choose rome instead of madrid? will there be a stop somewhere else?
@Chanukah:
Actually it does work for Pesach.
As long as your outbound flight is by 03/27 you can return anytime.
@sam:
Yes it does.
Be sure you’re on the Japan site and that your dates are valid as described in the post.

@yuda:
If you want to reply to a comment just click on the reply button.
For what dates are you looking?
Why am i getting 19,000 USD for flight??
@BDS:

dan.
thanks for the post. however it should be made clear to all that to get a ticket for around $400 you will have to stop over between 4 and 6 times over the course of the trip. to me that kind of torture is not worth any amount of money.
Just tried 12/17/2012-12/24/2012total 86040.00 yen? anything i did wrong?

I worked it out and after calculations it turned out to be about 1,500 before tax for 2 tickets. Not too expensive but not as cheap as is listed above…

this is what im getting after i type dates and hit next: Server error
An invalid response was received while attempting to load http://booking.alitalia.com/Booking/JP_JA/. The server may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.
Here are some suggestions:
Reload this webpage later.
HTTP Error 502 (Bad Gateway): The gateway or proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
Scared to do this because by booking two separate tickets that are not on the same itinerary will potentially give me trouble if there is a delay/cancellation to one of the flights.

IM TRYING TO BOOK FROM NOV 21-29 FROM JFK. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT??
Dan, Just tried a bunch of times. PROMOJP is not working- price is not changing
everything worked till it came to enter the promo code it says not the right one ple advice tnx
the drop down isn’t getting translated? Anyone else have this problem?
The flight from JFK to Madrid stops in Rome. The flight from Madrid to Tel Aviv also stops in Rome.
So in order to get from JFK to Tel Aviv you are going to have to go JFK –> ROME –> MADRID –> ROME –> TLV. Then you have to do the same thing on the way back.
It is worth it for those who can’t afford to get there any other way.
Thanks for posting!
Will they honor these purchases? How about the ones that total $0? How do you see your reservation? Thanks
@joe:
After selecting flights.
@rots5:
The Madrid shtick, yes.
@Anonymous:
It’s all on the same airline. If there’s a delay they’ll take care of you.
IS IT INCLUDED TAX ?

Good Luck to all!!

@Vic:

@S Gottlieb: dates?
@hunch:
no, sorry
$408 with only one stop in madrid? How can I get that? thanks
@Confused:
what are your dates?
many times the dates are not working cayuse they are all sold out in the lower classes.
it’s pretty simple, go to the website and book it, put the promo in, just sometimes the dates are sold out and are therefore expensive
Did anybody get a confirmation after booking?
@Desparat:
in concept it should work, you would need through Rome, but since all those flights are booked out (from people going to Tel aviv VIA rome) you cant 🙁

@fay: Yes I received confirmation codes etc…
HI, ME AND PROBABLY 7 OTHER GIRLS WOULD LOVE TO USE THIS COUPON AND GO TO ISRAEL OVER CHANUKA-ONLY THING IS, WE LITERALLY NEED STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS. WE’D LIKE TO ACTUALLY BOOK OUR TICKETS TOMORROW NIGHT, CAN SOMEONE PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME FROM START TO FINISH?? thanks so much
I am confused with the timing how can I match up the set of tickets to get to Israel, the site does not say what day I am arriving in the rome or madrid
@anynm:
cannot be done!!! read the post, one stop is minimmum $700. only way to get it under is by doing the madrid thing, so it’s 3 stops
@abe:

Contact helpflights@gmail.com if u need help
charge will be $100, thru paypal
Even if i book a full itinerary going to JFK-Rome-Madrid-Rome-Tel Aviv and then the reverse What will happen if i skip the flight to spain and stick around in rome till the flight leaves to israel
@jj1000: @jj1000 did you get it without a stop in rome before madrid?
FOR THOSE REQUESTING HELP
(This is what I did)
1) Open Google Chrome (Not Internet Explorer)
2) Go to http://www.alitalia.com/jp_ja/home/index.aspx
3) Put JFK for departure and TLV for Arrival city. Select your dates (notice its day/month/ year as in today would be 21/10/12) and select search.
4) Select your flights, Basic is cheapest, and press next (I’m unsure what the others are offering)
5) Towards the bottom of the page is a box for ecoupons. enter promo code PROMOJP and hit recalculate then next.
6) Enter the requested passengers’ info and proceed to the payment screen.
GOOD LUCK!!!
How do I pay usd?? It is giving the price in yen…
@ dan

Thank you for the deal!
@jake:
correct, but those days are just sold
@ABE: out
if you do an overnight def you need to take your luggage, a full day stop is the question, and generally theyt will transfer the luggage
@shayna:
you pay in yen and the CC gives you the exchanged rate, best to paywith a shappire or other card that has no forex fee
@Dan: I cant understand why it wont apply the discount when I put in any codes?
Can you please help?
@Joel g:

Check if there’s a Yotel in the terminal like they have in Amsterdam it’s great I used it on my way to EY slept and showered no need to go through customs waiting lines
can i go book from jfk to rome to madrid to rome to tel aviv and just stay in rome and never get on the madrid flight? not flying with luggage?
basically can i get on the second flight coming from madrid to rome in rome?
Hi – did anyone find flights for Pesach- can you share the dates?
anyone did it december 26-27 -january 3-4?
For all u having hard time getting cheap price, plz read post which explained that u will have to fly from jfk to rome to madrid then back to rome to Israel (no cutting in middle), (and lots of waiting time) think if its practical for u… now thats for the 400 however for around 700 u can find with just stopover in rome to tlv
@laze:
ya… wait a few minutes 🙂
jk, the site is on overload… so try try again
So how do we confirm if this went through and will be honored? I can’t find anywhere on the site to check reservation. I only have the confirmation e-mail… I don’t want to make any other plans and then have this canceled.
i would like to fly with my wife and infant so i tried to book 3 adult tickets when they ask for the age of the 3rd passenger ( the infant ) it doesnt let me put in any year after 2000 any help
@slow guy123:
without dates, no one can give you a price
Dan Do you know why I can not pay?
Write me to try other ways
@Anonymous:
its always the day after, if you leave the 12th, you get there the 13th. simple
Another question – how can I book a seat for an infant? When I called Alitalia (not mentioning any deal, of course) I was told I have to book 2 adults and an infant, then call them to buy baby’s seat (at full fare with no special deal, one would assume).
I am getting this error now:
“Internal Server Error – Read
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Reference #3.8d28434d.1350794375.27aaf2ac”
Are they getting hammered?
@oiber chochim sorry ur not a bigger oiber chochom then anyone else, it doesnt work like that, they will cancel the rest of ur ticket if u dont show up on the rest of the trip, and u canot get on in middle of the madrid-rome-tlv either, its all gotta b in order..
been retrying for 20 minutes no luck
@slow guy123:
post your dates
THEY JUST SHUT DOWN THEIR SITE
if anyone finds cheap flight from jfk to israel, why dont they tell us the flight number and we can look for it ourselves. Like something under $500. We’ve been searching and can’t seem to find cheap enough, like many others have been writing all night! Thanx for all the help everyone has been giving!
is there exchange rate on amex
@Anonymous: 1/8/13 RETURN 1/16/13
i dont know my exact travel date. can I change dates? also, cani do this flying from Israel to Us?
site is down…
website down
Thanks Dan, for all asking :
Taxes included, promo code still working now, paid 706 USD from JFK to TLV with one stop each direction
great deal
To anyone who has question, Ill make it clear, the flights are booked separately, meaning the flight from jfk to madrid involves a stopover in rome, and teh flight from Madrid to TLV also involves a stopover in Rome, so basically you would be going to Rome twice in one day. if anyone needs help i dont mind coaching u on the phone.
seems the caught on. Site is down
Lenny i tryd round trip,so i guess that are flying to us
is it over?
@chaim: this site doesnt open anymore
Still alive.
See update #2 for a working link to their site!
@chana: please contact us on 8454252158
site closed
@sam:
For what dates?
@david:
Just book the infant as an adult.
No big deal.
@b:
No, read the post updates.
Got flights for 11/27-12/4 through madrid for $400 each ticket. I’m wondering if I’ll be able to stay in rome and not have to fly to madrid and back. If anyone is successful in doing that, please post.
Thanks
@shua:
Nope, they will cancel your tickets if you do that.
i managed to book the first half after commenters were syaing its down by retrying the payment page over and over now working on the second half
The site is down
Thank G-D I booked already
Thanks Dan
@Moshe:
See comment 270, 273, and post update #2…..
Chana: how did you figure out to book the flight? can you coach me on how you booked it
your link in update 2 only showes you that page after putting in airports and dates it givev you the error any ideas i already booked the flights to madrid and am stuck without the tickets to israel
I was also able to get the deal thru the AMERICAN site with promo code SPECIAL. 2 adults, 2 kids, one infant march 24-apr 3 for 3200. only problem is the site seems to have crashed in the middle and now it wont take my payment info 🙁 🙁 🙁
dan, do I have to go? i don’t really wanna go!
oh my i just did it!! i bought 2 tickets! it took me about 3 hours to do. phew! Q: dan, can i cut madrid out of the picture once i booked? i would prefer to go to rome and thats it, why the extra flights?
should i call them? or is it a waste of time?
thanks!!!
i would like to fly with my wife and infant so i tried to book 3 adult tickets. when they ask for the age of the 3rd passenger ( the infant ) in the passenger info page, it doesnt let me put in any year after 2000 hence i will not be able to put in the correct birthday. anyone have any ideas
@laze:
Indeed.
That link was working for flight searches, but now it is not.
Booked . Thanx dan!!
Dan, the home page and the link is not working. Meaning once you put in the info it shows site being down. Are you finding this?
@mayer:
when you say just what time do you mean it seems to me the website is down
Alas thanx Dan for the post
@Dan: SO GUESS ITS DEADDDDDDD
Website is up but when searching for flights you get: Siamo spiacenti, si è verificato un errore! Clicca qui per tornare alla Home Page
Sorry, there was a problem! Clicca qui per tornare alla Home Page
@Dan:
any idea for what to do next as i said have rountrip tickets for 4 to madrid
you think i will be able to cancel those worse comes to worse
It’s back on
@Moshe: CAN U POST THE LINK
No, it’s not. Site is still down.
BTW the flight i booked, or am trying to book, for pesach time, is going through rome.
and i called alitalia… the guy was like, lemme guess, youre calling about the flight we have the deal on. sorry cant help you. he actually said, yeah the whole world is trying to get that flight. lol at least he had a sense of humor about it. seems this was NOT an error, unlike that other deal was.
1:17 is still not working
@Debbie: BUT CAN U STILL CALL THEM FOR OTHER DATES AND STILL GET THE DEAL
It’s still down when I tried. Anyone else have this problem?
Dan, I don’t know if you realize how powerful you are…you were able to get the entire Alitalia booking system down. Your posts are awesome and much appreciated. You have a little army behind you.
Website still dead?
Oh! yes
@slow guy123:
no. they can not apply promo codes over the phone.
Dan did you call me? sorry i was in the bathroom. call again.
I am on the phone with Alitalia – The woman is saying that the promotion was only until 10 AM Japan time, and it is no longer available. Basically fuggeddaboudit. I was trying a few alternate routing , and in the meantime lost the opportunity. What a shame!
Thanks anyway, Dan
it’s not working anymore! I’m on the site in Jappaness, translated to english, and there is an error every time. Did they catch on?
Is it working?
BTW you can buy the first part of the tkt for $284.16 and get a different flight from rome to tlv for $274.00. total $558.16!!!!
so you have a one stop flight for $558.16
it’s still up for 775 a ticket in november . i just did it
no : (
Dan, is the deal over?
i think the website’s up just not the japanese one. you can do 775 a ticket
@sruly
how do you plan on getting home?
If you don’t take the 2nd leg they will cancel your return trip CMIIW
I called the toll free number on their website. They said the deal’s over for 2night and it will resume 2morrow and they will be able to help me through it. So hopefully this will work. Good luck to you all!
@Sol:
the italian one or te american?
in the american it 835$
Called a few numbers posted above. . . Why no one answering?
please don’t post your number if you don’t plan on answering.
thank you

Guys please stop calling the airline! Its been posted many times that you should NEVER call an airline/hotel/etc when there is a good deal/price mistake/system glitch.
When are you people going to learn???
I dont wanna see 500 hate comments here tomorrow when they start canceling tickets. You people did it to yourselves. 😡
i called them deal is on again on japanese website at 500 am new york time!
Dan, will you wake us up, tweet.. at 5 o’clock or in the morning when the deal gets back???
I made a reservation on the regular website for the 25% off deal.
If the japanese website opens again in the morning, I will try that as well. ALitalia said it will
Nice! Just collected a bunch of emails and phone numbers for my next project 🙂
Wats the refund policy?
24 hours
in all of their promotions and fares, its not clear what is the cancellation policy. how much you pay for cancellation, and how much for changing the ticket
Site is back up (not sure about the deal though)
5 o’clock in da Morning. Still Down!!
5:00 AM and the site is not yet back 🙁
just tried again…still down
tried for the last hour many times…no luck
@Dan: could i just not fly 2 madrid at a cost pf loosing that ticket?
the site is back and its working both the code is not working anymore
Frustrating beyond belief ….. last night it was working ok, and just as I was ready to bool, website went down. I Called ALitalia later, they said willl be back at 5 AM. tried several times after 5 AM, no luck. Clalled them again, they said it is simply overloaded, promotion will be good UNTIL 5 am Monday. kept trying, finally got in, and got till point of entering code…it won’t recognize code. I called again, now they say that it will not work until AFTER 5 AM tomorrow.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
i gave up at 2 AM… now I am back at it. american website where i used promo code SPECIAL wont take my payment info, and japanese website is not recognizing the promo code. anyone having any luck this morning?
7:30AM JP SITE IS UP BUT PROMOJP CODE DOES NOT
Are the commentators here for real??!! “Please book me aticket, I’ll give you my CC number” do they not understand what identity fraud is. Please never give anyone your info. There are “Heimeshe” fraudsters as well.
@hunch:
this is not a glitch. its a bona fide coupon.
@spambot: lol good for you
Thanx
Is the deal dead?? im putting in the code and price is not changing….
THE SIDE IS ON BUT THE PROMO IS NOT WORKING

looks like they cancelled all my tickets!
Just got e-mail saying my ticket was not booked after all and I will get a refund of my money. Anyone else get this?
They cancelled all tickets that used promo code PROMOJP.
Update: Just got a second email saying the same. They canceled both my tickets…
I booked last nite, got confirmation emails and all. Got email this am from Alitalia saying my tix will not be processed and my cc will be refunded. Anyone else get that? Dan, do you know where us ticketholders stand???
Any flights bought on the Alitalia japanese site have been canceled and u will be credited back ur $. the deal with the US site is still available acc. to their customer service and will work
All tickets booked via the Japanese site have been cancelled. I just spoke to Alitalia.
Just got a email from Alitalia that they will refund the money and the ticket is not processed so i guess its done all over but that not right what they just did because after all its not a glitch its just a coupon what they listed so???????????
I got an eamil informing me that my ticket has been canceled, Icalled and they told me that as of 1 hour ago, all tickets resereved wih teh JP website have been cancelled.
DAVID, DEBBIE, SLOW GUY, DEALS, DEAL LURKER, SEGEV and LEONARD: it is because of idiots like you why most mistake fares do not get published on DansDeals. The truth is if a deal is on flyertalk then it might as well be on D.D. But in general, the morons like you who have to call the airlines and kill it for everyone is why we don’t divulge mistakes unless it is already “out there”. And for those of you who want to take the “moral highground” about calling/keeping secret these deals: you shouldn’t be using the internet!
I had tickets printed out, and they cancelled them. litalia is gonna get a firestorm of calls andbad PR if they do not honor these legit tickets.
Is the deal over? Can we still get these tickets?
All flights booked on the Japanese site have been canceled. Just got an email and called up to confirm.
@Sruly, it’s a good idea, but what about the return ticket, and your luggage will be stuck in Madrid.
Let me know if I’m wrong, because I would do it otherwise.
I’m traveling with 5 kids, and I can’t afford to be stranded anywhere, and I can’t afford be stuck without my luggage.
@Dan: Is it possible to book the rome milan rome leg of the trip separately , so that when u dont show up to it even if they void that ticket it will not effect the jfk-tlv flight?
I looked on other blogs and it LOOKS LIKE PEOPLE ARE GETTING CANCELATION email from Alitalia.
i booked tickets for pesach and now they say theu canceled all theses tickets for everyone are they allowed to do that i got eticket number etc!????
so whoever missed it, it wasnt real anyway..However THANK YOU Dan for alerting everyone…you never know.
I just got an email from alitalia that they cancelled my tickets.
hello dan???

omg i just called bec mt tickets were cancelled!!! hope my hours were not wasted. they have very unprofessional customer service. they were told exactly what to say say it ain’t pretty!!! i asked to speak to a supervisor and they don’t let!!!!
LOTS of cancellation emails being reported! Especially for $0 intra-Europe flights. I didn’t get in but would be curious to hear if anyone with a paid flight got to fly.
Just boookkkked
heloo!! i have screen shot in english from saudi arabi partner site that my tickets are confirmed

I got an email saying that they have cancelled my flight I reserved yesterday and they are refunding my money
@Dan: any of the dates and ones you suggested, the circle would just spin and then it would stop and the price would stay the same!
i just rebooked with the 25 code for like 100 more per tkt will they at least give me slight discount on new booking??
@sruly: what dates did you do?
you are missing one fact maybe someone has said it already you can not have a connection on the same day on the way back. you can’t get into mad b4 1 pm there is no way a vonnection the same day mad rom or mil nyc so you either need a hotel which is not free or spend the the night in the airport which is doable if you aere really desperate
I tried booking on the Japanese Alitalia site on the same routing found on ITA (all legs were AL not codeshare) and am having a problem entering the PROMOJP promo code. Anyone have similar issues?
@debbie
This was a glitch. It was intended only for tickets originating in jalan.
Thanx to all the dumb@$$es that called the airline.
To all those posting comments like “but dan??”, should be ashamed of themselves. This is the reason why dan doesn’t normally post deals that aren’t guaranteed to go through.
In fact, Dan wrote in the post that they may cancel tickets.
glitch my a@# to bad i paidaround 700 something per ticket they still making money not exactly free!
where do I go to get the 376.00 tickets with 2 stops. I keep clicking and I do not see the site. why did you have to pay 700 and was it 2 2 stops. also what airline elal
Yes! Thanks DAVID, DEBBIE, SLOW GUY, DEALS, DEAL LURKER, SEGEV and LEONARD!!! What stupid idiots you all are!!!
Booked for 750 round trip to canada, very easy and short stopover with the 255 off
still a great deal as we dont have anytickets under 1000
thanks for the 25 percent coupon
Can you get the 25% of on 2 flights? for example JFK-ROME then ROME- TEL AVIV and get 25% of each ticket?
thx for trying dan. love your site!!!!!
STOP wining , a bunch of freeloaders, i knew about this mistake on the Japan site 2 days ago before most of you and i did not participate, after discount code PROMOJP all inter european fres came to $0 or a few dollars!! REAALY? Do you expect ALITALIA or any airline to go out of business to please you and fly you all over Europe for free? Alitalia had it on their Japan site which is in Japanese , till someone discovered there was a glitch , bloggers were all over it , in short ALITALIA has every right to not honor theser tickets. One more thing, all you freeloaders or shall i say (dishonest opportunists) cause airlines at the end to raise ticket prices and award miles required for the rest of the legitimate frequent travellers .
a few seconds ago · Like
the us alitalia site currently when you try to purchase the ticket with the 25 percent off promo code it says the payment service is not working. I called them up and they said that their site is not working for payment. So i tried it anyways an after 5 times of hitting pay now and getting error messages i gave up…..till i saw in my email one of my tries had been successfull even thoguht they gave me an error message. I then proceeded to do it again with my wife and kid and again error messages but after 4 times i saw another email in my inbox and waolah. so keep on trying. Great deal.. Thanks.
I got this email at around 4pm Sunday October 21. This deal was done by then. Can you please send this email out sooner? Missed the Israel deal:(
@sharon:
Signup for twitter.
I am speaking Italian and I call office of airline and I inquire about the deal and they very angry at this internet site and say it not nice to do this to people. He said that this internet site dansdeals is stealing money from airports and he knows that we are not giving the deal.
To be realistic, it’s very difficult to see an instance where Alitalia honors all these discounted tickets. That being said, Alitalia should offer some type of compensation. Either a voucher for future purchases or a coupon that can stack with the 25% off currently available. The problem is that they are employing the forgive and forget tactic, hoping that in a few weeks this will brush off and everything will return to normal. I understand that mistakes occur, but imagine if the tables were turned and as a consumer we had made the mistake: either it be the date or time. I can guarantee that regardless of the circumstances or your financial status Alitalia would assess a fee for the change. This is why all the people who call out morality or ethics should reassess the situation. This is business, there was nothing illegal in the purchase of the ticket. As consumers we should demand some compensation. Any decent airline would have handled this situation in a more professional manner.
Worst airline ever
