Are you ready for take-off?
Amazon is offering $25 flights this holiday season — but only to a lucky few.
The retail behemoth is partnering with StudentUniverse to offer the mega-affordable trips for the second year in a row.
The deal will be available to Prime members aged 18-24 that are enrolled in the Amazon for Young Adults program, according to the company.
The companies will release 1,000 of the discounted domestic flights daily at 10 a.m. PST, Dec. 9 through Dec. 13.
Those who qualify can purchase a one-way or round-trip flight for a discount rate of up to $700 off the current retail value of the ticket on StudentUniverse, a company that offers discounted travel rates to students and young adults.
Travel must take place by Jan. 14, 2025.
The deal should provide a boost for on-the-ball Gen Zers who can snag it — the offer comes as a large portion reportedly can’t afford to fly to see family for the holidays, according to a survey from Credit Karma.
The study showed that young travelers will go into debt to book their seasonal trips — or have parents pony up the cost of coming home.
“As a mom to a college student, I am excited to have my son home for the holidays,” Carmen Nestares, vice president of U.S. Prime and Marketing Tech at Amazon, said in a written statement.
“The holidays are a time to gather with loved ones, make memories and create traditions, and we’re happy to help make flying more affordable for young adults who want to spend this important time with family and friends.”
Amazon offers a 6-month trial to their young adult program at no cost for new members.
After the trial ends, members will then be charged $7.49 a month.
Beyond this upcoming travel deal, those who join the Amazon for Young Adults program will be granted access to discounted travel on hotels and over 220 airlines with an additional 10% off all flights booked on StudentUniverse.
“At StudentUniverse, our mission is to make travel more accessible and affordable for young people,” said Mirza Smajic, Vice President of Global Supply and Brand Partnerships at StudentUniverse.
“Our ongoing partnership with Amazon young adults has allowed us to support thousands of young travelers in securing budget-friendly flights and accommodations worldwide.”
“Now in its second year, this campaign is a heartfelt way to bring joy during the holiday season by helping young people across the country travel home to reconnect with loved ones.”
