There are several major airlines planning to offer Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals for both domestic and international travel in 2020.
CINCINNATI - If you’ve been waiting to book your next vacation until Black Friday or Cyber Monday to score the best deals on flights, look no further. There are several major airlines planning to offer deals for both domestic and international travel in 2020.
But unlike major retailers offering deals on electronics and toys — not all airlines disclose their discounts ahead of time for competitive reasons.
Here’s a list of some airlines that have started early or have announced plans for holiday season offers.
