This flash sale has ended.
Delta has announced its latest SkyMiles award flash sale, and this month it is to select destinations in South America. Trips start from 36,000 miles round-trip and are valid on bookings in Main Cabin and Comfort+. If you like the sound of a trip to South America, you will have to hurry since the sale is only valid through March 14, 2018.
Terms And Conditions
The terms and conditions are straightforward (even if their award charts are not) as are all Delta flash sales:
- Bookings must be made by 23:59 ET March 14, 2018
- Travel period from August 15, to October 31, 2018
- Awards start at 36,000 SkyMiles round-trip, plus taxes and fees
- Awards are for Main Cabin and Comfort+ tickets
- Offer valid for flights departing from the contiguous 48 United States
What Destinations Are Included
The sale covers some major destinations in South America, including:
- Santiago, Chile (SCL)
- Quito, Ecuador (UIO)
- Lima, Peru (LIM)
- Buenos Aires, Argentina (EZE)
- Bogotá, Colombia (BOG)
- Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (GIG)
- São Paulo, Brazil (GRU)
- Cartagena, Colombia (CTG)
One point to remember is that you will still have to pay for fees and taxes; it is always best to try and pay for these using a credit card that comes with complimentary travel insurance. For instance, paying with your Citi Prestige® Card will mean you are covered for this trip.
Our Take
The timing of this promo is quite handy, primarily since the latter part of the travel dates covers Spring’s full bloom in South America. So if you like to get away for a late fall break then why not head down to South America?

Buenos Aires is a great city with many gastronomic proposals a lot of night, it is a city that never sleeps.
The temperatures are optimal.
you can learn to dance Tango very sensual.
If you are planning to enjoy mountains and amazing waterfalls in Brasil, you deffinly should change a little bit and take a plane to Basilia. Then, you need a car to drive for around 4 hours until Chapada dos Veadeiros. Spend 4 days there. Brasil is amazing. Enjoy
Nice sale!
Good call on the travel dates, regarding springtime in South America, I wouldn’t have thought of that off the bat. Bummer for me though we’ve already firmed up our plans for late-summer & fall of this year. Also a bummer that the promo doesn’t include biz.
Rio sounds great! I can’t believe how expensive south america is compared to asia, considering how much closer it is to North America.
Time to start planning a trip for the fall it sounds like. I have done Europe several times with cheap flights over the last couple years, time to try heading south instead.
Some of these destinations would be great. Cartagena is on my must-see list. That being said, some of the other destinations are farther and usually overnight flights. I’ll hold out for Business class lie-flat For those.
Yeah, that’s too little time to make such a big decision. Do they do these sales regularly?
Every month.
I need my DL miles for other destinations that they have a monopoly, but this is good value.
great sale for those that can use it!
Good offer.
Several destinations and also the travel period is also large.
I would love to go to Santiago Chile, however 36 hours is not enough time to make my travel plans and I do not want to pay to have my miles reinstated if the dates do not work.
Many thanks. It’s a bucket list trip for me. Might make it happen.
Exciting! Thanks for sharing.
