Holiday season flights are on sale from Delta. Fares start at $118 round-trip, and destinations include Atlanta, Orlando, and Las Vegas. American, Northwest, and United all have similar holiday deals.

Delta’s sale prices were the best available for four of the six routes I checked. However, United beat Delta’s Salt Lake City/Santa Barbara fare, while Spirit and US Airways offered lower Atlanta/Orlando fares. Other airlines came within a few dollars of Delta’s prices for the remaining routes, so you should compare fares before booking.

Midwest is offering a free companion ticket deal available to travelers who purchase a flight for travel in December or January.

This is a good deal for anyone planning to fly Midwest this winter and again next year. Before you book a qualifying flight, however, be sure you have a valid email address listed in your Midwest Miles account because the airline will email you details about the free ticket early next year.

Lufthansa is offering Europe sale fares from $400 round-trip. The sale features flights to Paris, Madrid, Rome, and Florence.

Lufthansa itself, along with Air Canada, Air France, Continental, Delta, KLM, Northwest, United, US Airways, and Virgin Atlantic, beat the sale prices for the routes I checked over a wide date range. Since Lufthansa has a lot of competition for winter fares, you should shop around before you book.
