(THIS IS NOW DEAD – BUT THE 25% DISCOUNT I WROTE ABOUT HERE IS STILL AVAILABLE)

(Yes, yes – lots of other people have already written about this today. Thanks, Flyertalk & The Points Guy where I saw this. I was out with my kids and doing crap so I wasn’t here posting. Sue me. Actually, please don’t sue me.) Now where was I?

Oh yes, if you go to Alitalia’s Japanese website (here) — use Google Chrome so you can translate the pages — and use promo code PROMOJP, you’ll get $350 off any Alitalia flight. That makes lots of intra-Europe flights free, and flights from JFK to Madrid for about $280 round trip.

Good luck!
