Always search one-way for 1 seat and then work your way up to the number of seats you need in order to book as many seats on sale as you can. Post a comment if a date listed below no longer works and it will be crossed off.
-Delta now allows coach passengers flying from New York to Los Angeles or San Francisco, Boston to San Francisco, or Washington DC-Los Angeles to reserve a kosher “meal.” Don’t expect much though, commenters report receiving a dry roll, roll, bissli, chummus and matbucha without any entree. I’m not sure that’s any better than JetBlue’s complimentary snacks like Terra Blue and Kettle Chips…

These fares are not on sale with miles, but you can pay for the ticket with “hybrid points” if you have AMEX or Chase points and a Business Platinum or Sapphire Reserve card.
Using AMEX points:
If you have A Business Platinum Card® from American Express OPEN you can get a rebate on the airline of your choice.
You can switch airlines by chatting with AMEX, though it will be easier to switch before you have used the $200 airline spending credit that year.
The rebate is 50% if you opened or upgraded your card between 10/1/16-5/31/17 and is 35% otherwise.
You can login to your account and redeem AMEX points for travel here.
A $120.20 flight will be 12,020 points and you would get a 35% or 50% rebate making the effective cost just 6,010 or 7,813 points, a value of 2 cents per point. That includes all taxes and you can still earn miles for flying!
If you also have a AMEX Consumer Platinum Card you can use that card and get back an additional 4 points per dollar, or 481 points for this ticket, dropping the effective cost to 5,529 or 7,332 points.
Using Chase points:
If you have a Chase Sapphire Reserve® card you can redeem points for 1.5 cents each towards travel.
You can view credit card offers by clicking on the “Other Credit Cards” tab on top of the DansDeals banner to view links for card offers. You can click on the link that says “View all card offers by issuing bank” and scroll down to view all card offers from the bank of your choice. Here’s How To View Credit Card Offers On This Site.
A $120.20 flight flight will be 8,013 points. That includes all taxes and you can still earn miles for flying!

I think you mean a flight using UR will be just 8,013 points?
@MIMB:
Isn’t that what I wrote?
Dan, you may want to add that both AA and DL offer kosher meals now in economy on transcon flights like JFK-LAX.
@Izzy:
Are you sure they both allow you to reserve kosher meals on that route in coach?
This is the first time I’ve seen E fares on DL for this route. Take AA if you have the choice.
@Dan:
Not sure if it was a glitch, but it was first showing 40,001 points. All good now
@Dan
Yes. Flew that route recently and I can confirm as a NON ELITE Delta flyer in Coach that kosher meals can be reserved.
In reality what’s served is more like a snack…
@Dan:
Yes I can confirm too on both AA and DL, see boarding area and other blogs multiple reports on it.
@Vancouver Boy:
What exactly was served? Have a pic? No hot meal?
@Izzy:
Any reports on what they actually serve?
I saw AA bringing back meals, but not that you could order Kosher.
Not sure about AA with Kosher, I think more of snack box. DL you can def request KSML and they will serve from Borenstein ex JFK.
@Dan:
There is pic of the Delta KSML on JFK-SFO somewhere on DDF.
@Izzy:
Erm, didn’t you just say that you can reserve kosher on AA?
thanks dan you are a real tzadik
The “meal” is a roll, bag of bissli, chummus and matbucha (just flew it last week)
any luck booking this with rewards for first class/business lay flat seats
No Pic. It was that bad 😉
As the other commenter above mentioned,
The “meal†is a roll, bag of bissli, chummus and matbucha.
The Bread was challan roll style and very dry. Definitely don’t count on this as a meal.
Do i get a free checked bag with using my delta credit card on basic economy? Priority boarding? (What about united?) Also if I’m an authorized user does that work?
@Vancouver Boy: Haven’t flown a route in coach where they serve meals in a while, but I find that DL Kosher Meals in first domestically are actually quite good….particularly when leaving JFK
thanks dan! booked tickets! is it worth it to open delta credit card if I don’t have one to get free checked baggage even though I didn’t have it at the time I booked the tickets?
@toby:
Sure!
Yep it works two round tickets LA – NY Delta $480.00 including tax good deal, booked for Sukkot.
What’s the cancellation policy using hybrid points?
any cheap flights to toronto
Is this only for booking on priceline? Called JetBlue and they knew nothing about it.
@Nigel:
Chag sameach!
Have me in mind when it’s raining back east.
@Barry:
24 hours.
@Jack:
From Montreal, sure.
@Anonymous:
So why not book on Priceline?
Hi Dan
I just clicked on your website like i usually do thru out the day and saw this deal.
I have been wanting to go to la for a while and booked a trip for my family of 4.
Aug31-Sep 7th for $249.00 (: (labor day weekend)
I had trouble using my chase sapphire reserve ultimate rewards so i booked it straight on priceline while it still existed.
Thanks
How does one know if these fares are for basic economy?
If I have a delta card does everyone in my itenerary/family get a free checked bag or just the cardholder?
Dan jet blue snacks much better!
It’s embarrassing as a whole the kosher food you get
On these airlines.
@Anonymous:
Delta is BE, but they allow carry-ons anyway.
AA and JetBlue is regular.
@Toby:
Everyone.
@Anonymous:
True.
is this deal still on? I only saw for 160 on priceline
Please help! First time using dan’s deals. I see the “deal” but where do I go to actually book it???
