[08/07/2015 @ 10:47 AM] Delta has started a sale out of IAH that seems to be similar to the sale out of DFW that United is having.
[08/07/2015 @ 1:20 PM] Travelocity / Expedia don’t seem to have the fare anymore. Try Priceline and Orbitz.
[08/07/2015 @ 8:17 PM] Delta has pulled this fare. Fare gone. Removing this from deal list. Congrats to those of you who were able to pick it up.

The prices and details in this post were accurate when this post was last updated (see time-stamps above). Prices and availability will eventually change, given enough time.

Delta is offering round-trip flights from Houston (IAH / HOU) to Honolulu, Hawaii for $475, with a connection. Flights from August to January 2016. Holiday blackouts apply. Fare is reversible. See the Flight Details section of this post for example booking dates.

If you don’t find availability out of IAH, try it out of HOU, both airports have similar routing and prices but different availability.

Orbitz has a search tool that looks for flights 3-days before and after the dates you’ve selected, you should use it if you have a general idea of when you want to travel, but want to see other prices for other dates close to the ones you’ve selected.

To save the most money, be sure to apply the travel coupon codes available at the bottom of this post. Booking your trip as a Flight + Hotel package will probably save you more money than if you were to book separately. Vacation Packages on Travelocity and Priceline are usually better than what is offered directly by the airline, so be sure to compare them all to get the best price.

I was able to pull this up on Priceline and Orbitz. It may not be available on Travelocity or Expedia anymore. This screenshot was valid at 11:07 AM on 8/7/15. Prices and availability will eventually change.

Note: OTAs such as Orbitz and Travelocity allow free cancellation without penalty before 10 PM central time the day after you purchase. As deals sell-out or expire quickly, this policy will allow you to “lock-in” the cheap fare while you sort out a plan. Just keep in mind that after 10 PM the next day, you will not be able to cancel without the regular penalty.

United and Delta also allow free cancellations within 24-hours while American only allows you to “Hold” a ticket (without paying) for 24-hours. Keep in mind that once you pay for a ticket on AA.com you can’t cancel it without a change fee or penalty, even if was purchased less than 24-hours ago.

The Department of Transportation doesn’t enforce 24-hour free cancellation on tickets less than 7-days away from departure, so some airlines and OTAs will allow it while some will not. On Orbitz, you can easily see if your ticket allows a free cancellation, just look for “FREE Cancel” next to the price of the ticket.
