Delta / KLM – $813: Los Angeles – St. Petersburg, Russia. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

A good sale to St. Petersburg. If you don’t care about miles, Aeroflot has this for $731. Aeroflot’s fare earns 25% mileage with Delta, so you’ll earn about 3,000 miles. With this fare, you will earn 100% mileage this year. If you fly this year, this is better overall. If you fly next year, the decision is harder as Delta hasn’t released their mileage earn chart for partners yet.
