Discount Fares To Europe From BWI Airport In WOW Air Sale

HANOVER, MD — Discount Icelandic airline WOW Air is offering one-way tickets to select European destinations for under $50, and it's good news for wanna-be Maryland travelers. However, there’s some fine print attached to this deal that we’ll explain here.

First, the tickets are only being offered from four U.S. airports: Detroit, Newark, Boston and Baltimore-Washington International Airport. Travelers who can fly from those four airports can travel to Reykjavik, Iceland, Brussels, Belgium, Dublin, Ireland, Frankfurt, Germany or London.

The deal is valid until Friday, Jan. 18, and applies to selected dates of travel from Jan. 21 to March 11. The airline also says there’s a limit on the number of tickets. When the offer launched on Jan. 14, WOW Air said there were 1,000 seats available at the discount price. Finally, while the ticket prices being offered are for one-way fares, customers must book a round-trip ticket to claim the deal.

Since WOW Air is a budget airline, you’ll also be charged for any extra services you might take for granted on a regular airline. The basic fare on WOW only includes your ticket and one personal item. Additional services come at an extra cost.

You can search for the discount tickets here.
