Hopper is having a flash sale for $100 off flights to Rome or Venice. This coupon expired 05/20 @ 2:00 AM.

American Airlines, British Airways, Finnair, Iberia and various other airlines have round-trip flights from Austin (AUS) to Rome (FCO) for $739-$756 with a connection. If you apply the Hopper coupon, the cost of the round-trip is about $639-$656. Flights October to February. Departures on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday. 7-day minimum stay required.

A Carry-on bag and also a personal item is allowed for free. You can avoid paying for seat selection by accepting the randomly assigned seat at the gate.

These types of Hopper flash sales are common. They usually have a similar sale once a month. If you manage your notification settings on the Hopper app, you will never miss another Hopper flash sale.

Other destinations are also on sale, but with a lesser discount. The full list of destinations on sale is on Hopper’s website.

Whenever Hopper has these kinds of sales, all you need to do to get a good deal is pair it with a quick Google Search, select the lowest fare from there, and then plug those dates into the Hopper app with the coupon. We’ve linked the Google Calendar dates with the lowest dates for each destination on our website.

Keep in mind that Hopper is an OTA, so don’t expect them to have a free 24-hour cancellation period, or the lowest base fare price. Be sure to sort the search results by Price, Hopper doesn’t do that automatically. Hopper will also try to up-sell you on a lot of extras like “cancel for any reason” policies that in our opinion, suck; just say no.

If you use the Citi® / AAdvantage® Platinum Select® World Elite Mastercard® with AA flights, you get: a 25% inflight food and beverage discount, a $125 AA flight discount after you spend $20,000 or more in purchases during your card year, and your first checked bag is free on domestic American Airlines flights for you and up to four companions traveling on the same reservation.

  • Tips: Rent a car for cheaper by using Priceline’s “Express Deals”. The rental car company will be hidden until after you purchase, but this allows those companies to undercut the published rate indirectly. You can remove low quality companies from those hidden results. The trick is to use the quality filter on their website to remove any rental car company with a review rating under 7.0 and then pick the deals that survive the filter. Note that the quality filter is only available on the desktop/web version of the Priceline website and isn’t available on the mobile version.
  • Tips: Use Tripadvisor to create a Hotel “short list”. First, plug in your dates and destination. Then select “Sort by Traveler Ranked”. Finally, select the “Traveler Ranking” filter to show “only 4* and up”. Use this resulting “short list” of hotels to find the cheapest one with a high ranking.
  • Tips: The Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card allows for 1-to-1 point transfers to several airline loyalty programs. Booking with points is a good alternative to paying with cash when the price of airfare is high. Here is the current list of Chase Sapphire transfer partners: United, Southwest, jetBlue, British Airways, Iberia, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Air France, KLM, Virgin Atlantic, Aer Lingus, and Air Canada.
  • Tips: Hotel rates for Weekend dates are usually higher than the rates for Sunday through Thursday. Tripadvisor has a color-coded date calendar, red when the average hotel price for that day is more expensive, green for less expensive. You can use this to get an overview of what dates in the month are at a discount.
  • Tips: Different booking websites will often have differing routes, prices, and availability. Before you finalize your purchase, do a quick check on BookingBuddy, Skyscanner, and Kayak to see if any other site or airline is offering a better deal.
