Black Friday is perhaps the single most important day of the year for US retailers, even as Black Friday.
Last year, US retailers set a record with $6.22 billion in Black Friday business in online sales alone.
With the online component, Black Friday continues to include more than just electronics and toys. Even airlines have been jumping on board with sales and specials of their own.
So far, deals are rather sparse, but we expect more to be announced as Black Friday and Cyber Monday get closer.
We'll be updating this list as the world's airlines announce their Black Friday sales, so be sure to check back and refresh.
In the meantime, scroll down to find the best airline Black Friday and Cyber Monday flight deals of 2019.

The airline says that the prices will be reflected in search results. Of course, because airline pricing models are incredibly complex and opaque, it's hard to tell how the discounts are being applied.
However, a few sample searches found some stellar prices, including the low $300s from New York to destinations in Ireland and the UK.

Aeromexico
![]()
Aeromexico is offering a handful of discounted flights for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Some deals are better than others — for instance, a $325 round-trip flight from New York to Mexico City is a solid deal, while an advertised $1,110 flight from Houston to Lima is far from competitive.
The best thing to do is check Aeromexico's promotion page and explore the various routes and prices to see if something works for you, and then price-compare on Google Flights.
Occasionally, you can score an incredible deal on business class — sometimes it's around the same price as coach — so make sure to search for that too. That's how I got to fly to Santiago, Chile in business class last summer, which was a fantastic experience.
