Who can take advantage of Amazon’s $25 flight offer? Details here!
If you’re looking to travel this holiday season without breaking the bank, Amazon has a deal for flights priced at just $25 available for young adults.
This year, Amazon has teamed up with StudentUniverse, a service that provides budget-friendly travel options for young people, to offer 5,000 flights at $25 each. This offer is specifically for members of Amazon for Young Adults, who fall within the 18-24 age range.
The purpose of this $25 flight deal is to make travel more accessible for young adults during a holiday period typically marked by high expenses. A survey by CreditKarma indicated that around two-thirds of millennials and Gen Z expect to incur debt during the 2023 holiday season, with a significant portion of Gen Z unable to afford returning home due to rising costs, including student loans.
Carmen Nestares, Amazon’s vice president of U.S. Prime and Marketing Tech, expressed her enthusiasm for this initiative, saying, “As a mom to a college student, I am excited to have my son home for the holidays. The festive season is about gathering with family, creating memories, and upholding traditions, so we are pleased to provide affordable flight options for young adults eager to reconnect with their loved ones.”
