A Basic Economy fare at $485 is available from these airlines but comes with limitations. Highlights include:

- Checked bags cost extra: $75 for the first bag and $100 for the second.

- Many online travel agencies may not correctly label these fares as Basic Economy.
Beginning January 8, 2025, travelers to the United Kingdom will need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA). The ETA costs £16 for a duration of two years. If you’re merely transiting through the UK and staying airside, you won’t need an ETA. However, if you choose to clear UK border control, one will be required. Beware of scam sites that sell ETAs for more than the government-approved rate.
