JetBlue Launches Boston-Milan Route From $399
JetBlue launched nonstop Boston-Milan service today with one-way fares starting at $399. This is a strong price point for a transatlantic route, especially on a carrier with a better product than the legacy carriers on this route. Spring and summer availability makes the timing work well for Milan travel.

Fiji Airways: D.C. to Nadi From $850 Roundtrip, Bags Included
Fiji Airways dropped roundtrip fares from Washington D.C. to Nadi to $850, taxes included, with checked bag and normal carry-on included. August travel dates are available, giving you about 3 months to plan if you book now. This isn't rock-bottom pricing, but it's strong enough that you won't regret booking if Fiji has been on your radar.

Etihad Sale: Save Up to 30% (Expires May 14)
Etihad is offering up to 30% off economy and business class fares, but the sale expires May 14th—you have exactly 2 days to book. The discount applies to a decent range of routes, and unlike some airline sales, you only need to complete your booking by the deadline, not your travel. The savings are legitimate if you're already considering Etihad.

Qatar: 10K Bonus Avios + 15% Off With Code MAYBONUS
Qatar Airways is offering Privilege Club members up to 10,000 bonus Avios plus up to 15% off paid flights with promo code MAYBONUS through May 13th. The discount and bonus are both competitive for a Qatar promo, though you'll need to book by tomorrow for a fairly long travel window ahead. This is useful if you've been eyeing a Qatar booking and you're already a Privilege Club member.

💳 CARD OF THE DAY
The Chase Freedom Unlimited Card offers a $200 bonus plus 5X points on groceries and gas, but only if you apply in-branch. The in-branch requirement is annoying, but 5X on groceries and gas beats most flat-rate cards for everyday spending.
