Travel Tuesday is here — and this year we're seeing some great travel bargains. From deeply discounted flights to rewards, the travel world is rolling out big savings.

We hand-picked the standout deals you don’t want to miss — whether you’re planning a getaway next month or booking ahead for your 2026 adventure.

JetBlue is running a Travel Tuesday promo that takes 35% off the base fare of eligible nonstop flights, including those booked on points. Travelers can snag the discount by entering the promo code SAVE35 at checkout by Dec. 3, for flights January 6 to February 11 and February 24 to March 11, 2026 (Friday and Sunday excluded).

This promotion code can be used on multiple bookings, offering a solid way to lock in savings on any upcoming trips.

Southwest started its sale yesterday, offering 50% off flights booked with points or cash by using promo code 50CYBER. The offer is valid on bookings made through December 4 for travel between January 6 and March 4, 2026 (blackout dates apply).

While this is a great chance to lock in discounted flights for early-year travel, if you already have a flight booked, this is also an opportunity to re-price an existing flight.

Alaska Airlines is running a Buy One, Get One offer on select flights to Tokyo (NRT) and Seoul (ICN), letting you bring a companion for just the taxes and fees when you use promo code TTBOGO25.

The deal is valid for travel on select dates between January and March 2026, with a few blackout periods to keep in mind. It’s an excellent opportunity to score two international tickets for close to the price of one — perfect for planning a trip with a partner or friend.

Frontier is offering 100% off the base fare on round-trip tickets when you use promo code SAVE100. To qualify, you must book by December 2, 2025 — and travel must take place by March 5, 2026 on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Saturday (with a 50% discount on Monday and Thursday travel dates).

The offer applies to many domestic and international routes, but only to base fares — you’ll still be responsible for taxes, fees, and any add-ons like baggage or seat selection. It’s a great opportunity if your schedule is flexible and you’re willing to fly on the discount-eligible days.

Book a flight on Spirit Airlines through end of day today, December 2, and you'll receive 60% off the base fare by using promo code 60PCT.

This is for flights departing December 9 through March 4, although it's limited to just Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday travel. For those looking to book a vacation this winter — and flexible on dates — this could be a great opportunity to travel for cheap.

IHG is offering a limited-time promotion that awards 5x base points on paid stays booked by December 2, 2025. When you book within the promo window and complete your stay by December 31, you’ll earn 50 points per dollar at most properties — and that’s before any elite or credit-card bonuses you might stack on top.

It’s an excellent opportunity to rack up a big stash of points on end-of-year travel, especially if you already have December hotel nights planned. If you’ve been waiting to firm up plans, this promo makes it an even better time to book.

While not a deal through Hyatt directly, the online shopping portal Rakuten just added Hyatt hotels to its list of merchants. This means you can now earn cash back (or Amex or Bilt points) every time you book a stay.

Cash back rates vary throughout the week, but right now Rakuten is offering 10% cash back by going through the portal first. If you've found any good Hyatt deals, this is a great opportunity to double-dip on your savings.

To sweeten the deal even more, new Rakuten members will also receive an extra $50 bonus after making their first qualifying purchase within the first 90 days.
