There are some incredible flight deals to Barcelona available if you book as soon as possible by David Slotnick on Jan 4, 2018, 4:10 PM The Insider Picks team writes about stuff we think you'll like.

United Airlines is offering a deep discount on round-trip flights from New York City-Newark Airport to Barcelona. The prices are so good that even if you live somewhere else in the US, it could be worth trying to find a cheap positioning flight to get to Newark. While it may not be peak beach season in Barcelona, it's certainly warmer than it is in most of the US today — especially the East Coast. Like many flight deals, this one may not last long. While it seems like the kind of deal that should stick around for at least 24 hours, it could vanish sooner than that — especially as people snatch up the cheap fares. Your best bet would be to book as soon as you find dates at the right price, before someone else gets those fares for that day. Prices/Availability Just like with many other airline-driven flight deals, there's a range of prices available — although the range here is nice and narrow. In this case, fares are as low as $412, ranging up to around $440. Generally, stays have to be at least six or seven days long in order to get the best prices. Flights are only available from United's hub at Newark airport, but you may be able to find a cheap flight to New York from other cities. Also worth noting: since United is a full-service airline, checked bags, seat assignments, and in-flight meals and drinks are all included. Dates There are limited dates available in February and March. Several examples at time of publication include February 1–9 for $412, February 16-22 for $425, and March 11–17 for $425. Don't be surprised if you can't find the same exact prices for these dates, as prices can fluctuate a small amount every few minutes. Normal prices for these flights would be at least in the $600s. Booking To find dates and buy tickets, check your preferred travel booking site. I found that Priceline did the best job at pulling up the discounted fares. If you can't find the right prices, try playing with the dates — sometimes with deals like this, you can get the best price by changing little things, like leaving on a Friday instead of a Thursday. Also keep in mind that while nonstop flights will be operated by United, Priceline may sell and issue some tickets through United's Star Alliance partners, like Lufthansa. Don't worry if that happens — it's just how Priceline selects the cheapest possible way to get the ticket. SEE ALSO: This is the best time of year to find cheap flights |
