It’s a travel deal that seems too good to pass up: a $25 flight from Amazon.

But there’s a catch: the offer is exclusive to Amazon Prime members on the young adult plan, supply is limited to 1,000 tickets a day, and it’s limited to travel through Jan. 14, 2025.

Amazon is offering the $25 flights in partnership with StudentUniverse, which offers travel discounts for students and young adults. They’re offering 1,000 flights each day for $25 over a five-day period for Prime members from ages 18 to 24, with the promotion designed to make it more affordable for young people to travel home for the holidays.

Here’s how to get the deal.

How to get a $25 flight from Amazon

Amazon Prime members on the young adult plan can activate the StudentUniverse discount for $25 flights at amazon.com/25flights.

People who aren’t Prime members can sign up for the young adult membership and then activate the StudentUniverse discount. Members can book their flights starting at 11 a.m. Arizona time on Monday, Dec. 9.

A young adult Prime membership costs $7.49 per month, or $69 per year; Amazon offers a free six-month trial. StudentUniverse is free to access.

Members are limited to a single round-trip or one-way flight.

Where can I fly for $25?

Amazon and StudentUniverse’s $25 flights are available for travel within all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. No international flights are offered at this discount.

When can I travel for $25?

The $25 flights are valid for travel from Dec. 9 to Jan. 14, 2025.

How many $25 flights will be available?

A total of 5,000 $25 flights will be available over five days from Dec. 9-13. Amazon will drop 1,000 of the $25 plane tickets each day starting at 11 a.m. Arizona time each day.
