Delta is running an amazing July 4th fare sale to London today. I’m seeing business class tickets to London today for as low as $1,770 all in. This is an amazing discount off of normal business class pricing. This is amazing because you’ll earn a ton of miles and get to fly in business class for a fraction of the normal price. If you want to get in on this sale, make sure you purchase your ticket no later than today, July 4th, 2012.
