Aeroflot: Los Angeles – Madrid, Spain. $630. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

Aeroflot is the national airline of Russia and has modernized itself in the last 20 years. It now operates all new and modern Airbus and Boeing planes and is a partner with Delta. Barcelona gets all the writeups about Spain, but Madrid is actually a pretty cool city with great museums and really good food. This is a good fare for late Fall and Winter travel.
