$25 Flights for Amazon Prime College Students
December 1, 2023
While traveling across the country can cause a dent in a student’s budget, there’s hope on the horizon this year with $25 flights for Amazon Prime college students. As the semester winds down, many college students are not just facing exams but also the challenge of planning their holiday travels to rejoin their families, especially the nearly one-fifth who study out of state.
Amazon has joined forces with StudentUniverse, a travel agency known for special student discounts, to gift Prime Student members an incredible holiday offer. The deal? Hard-to-believe $25 flights to and from home this festive season. The promotion is specifically designed for Prime Student members, giving them the chance to nab a domestic round-trip or one-way ticket through StudentUniverse for a mere $25. But this opportunity comes with a time limit. It’ll run from December 5 to December 7, 2023.
In total, 3,000 flight tickets are up for grabs at this bargain price. On each of the three days, 1000 tickets will be released at specific timings – 6 a.m. PST on December 5 and midnight PST on December 6 and 7.
Those fortunate enough to score a ticket will have the freedom to fly to any domestic location, reaping the benefits of a discount that could be as much as $500 off the current ticket price. The travel window for these discounted tickets is mid-December to early January. You can depart anytime between December 8 and December 25, 2023, and return between December 8, 2023, and January 14, 2024.
The terms and conditions, along with booking options, will be detailed on the dedicated Prime Student x StudentUniverse page. And the goodness doesn’t end with these $25 tickets. Even when they’re all gone, Prime Student members can still get $25 off flights using a promotional code. Naturally, some terms and conditions will apply.
The benefits of a Prime Student membership, which costs $69 per year, go beyond travel. Members enjoy rapid shipping, access to Amazon’s digital services like Music and Prime Video, Whole Foods Market deals, exclusive early access to Lightning deals, complimentary one-year Grubhub+ membership, and much more.
If this promotion has sparked your interest but you’re not quite ready to take the plunge, Amazon offers a 6-month free trial of Prime Student. Intriguingly, for a limited period, the student membership is not restricted to those enrolled in college. If you’re between 18 and 24 years old, that’s enough to qualify for the membership.
