Emirates: 9 cities to Europe or India as low as $392 r/t

It’s back. Emirates’ Valentine’s special is their 2-for-1 deals. A few years ago, I took advantage of this deal and brought my family along to Europe. We flew from JFK to Milan on a roundtrip ticket with Emirates and we paid $399 per person. We used Milan as our base and traveled on to Florence, Pisa, Lake Como, Venice, and then off to Paris. That was back in 2015, and I have since seen the special come around a couple of times since then.

My family before we boarded our Emirates flight from JFK to Milan, we paid $399 per person round trip.

Flying Emirates, even in Economy, was an experience I’d never forget. The service, the food, the comfortable seats. It’s one of the airlines that I vow to fly again hopefully in the near future.

Emirates special from airports across the US

While the sweet spot lower fares are available in New York and Newark, Emirates added more departure cities. The 2-for-1 deal has been expanded to more locations across the US.

East Coast

• New York JFK
• Boston
• Newark

Central and Midwest

• Dallas/Fort Worth
• Chicago
• Houston

West Coast

• Los Angeles
• San Francisco
• Seattle

What destinations are included? As I had mentioned, when I first saw this deal a few years ago, I had only seen JFK-MXP (Milan). But, this time around, the deal is now extended to different parts of India and the Middle East. Travel period is between February through early December 2018. There are certain black out dates. You have to book by Friday, February 17. You can click here for a direct link to the Emirate’s special.

Here’s a sample from New York (JFK) to Milan (MXP), this one comes out to $392 per person. Imagine that…on Emirates!!!!

Here’s another sweet spot deal from Newark (EWR) to Athens later this summer for roughly $492/person.

The deal now includes flights coming from the West Coast as well. Here’s an example of a direct flight from San Francisco to Dubai for $820 per person. That’s amazing. Direct flight to Dubai on Emirates. I also checked from Los Angeles to Delhi, the Emirates flights that I saw were all flying with Emirates Airbus A380-800 to Dubai, and continue on to Delhi via Emirates Boeing 777-300ER.
