I have an $800 credit with Delta Airlines which has to be used soon. Any ideas for a quick weekend trip?

Question

I'm in San Diego so need to fly somewhere. Problem is I do not want to take off work so I would need to leave Friday evening and come back Sunday.
Some ideas were either San Fran (although been there many times) or go to an amusement park somewhere...

Answer 1

For $800, I'd try to nail a more expensive flight than San Francisco, because those flights are comparatively cheap.

I'd look at Hawaii, for starters, even though you have the Friday/Sunday restriction. There's something decadent about 'hopping over the Pacific' for just a weekend. Otherwise, maybe an airfare market that doesn't get discounted that often: Denver, for example.

The main thing is to USE that $800! You might call Delta and ask if you can redeem all or a portion of that money with one of their partner hotels.

Wherever you use it, enjoy your trip!

Answer 2

Vegas, LA, or San Fran. You can't really go too far if you're only going to be gone for 48 hours.

Answer 3

Yeah take a relaxing trip to Napa and sample some wines. Take a break from hectic city life and just kick back.

Answer 4

I'd go to Hawaii! It's about a 4.5 hour flight and if you leave early morning, see the island and come back.

Otherwise: Albuquerque is nice!

Answer 5

Come to my house on the east coast and watch some football.

Answer 6

Fly to Europe and back

Answer 7

check every monday delta.com, there is special sale for last minutes travel( leave at Sat, reurn at Mon or Tue), and the fare is cheap, you can get to NYC for $248.

Answer 8

Try Las Vegas you'll love it. Great for a short trip, but don't gamble too much!!~!
