Deal Alert: US to Hong Kong From $575 Round-Trip

Airfare deals are typically only available on limited dates. We recommend you use Google Flights to find dates to fly, then book through an online travel agency, such as Orbitz or Expedia, which allows you to cancel flights without penalty by 11pm Eastern Time within one day of booking. However, if you’re using the American Express Platinum Card, you’ll need to book directly with the airline or through Amex Travel portal to get 5x MR points. Remember: Fares may disappear quickly, so book right away and take advantage of Orbitz or Expedia’s courtesy cancellation if you’re unable to get the time away from work or family.

It’s not too often that airlines put Hong Kong on sale, so be sure to not miss this one. Fly from several US cities including New York (JFK), Chicago (ORD), Houston (IAH), Los Angeles (LAX) and San Francisco (SFO) from just $575 round-trip. These discounted fares are generally available from September through the end of the schedule in March/early April 2018. As always, use Google Flights to select your ideal departure city and destination and then book either directly through the airline or through an OTA.
