Flash sale: Round-trip flights to Amsterdam from U.S. cities for just $326!

The Netherlands has reopened its borders to U.S. tourists less than a month ago, and we're already spotting fantastic flight deals to Amsterdam, its capital and most famous city.

With no vaccination, negative COVID-19 test, or quarantine needed, snagging a round-trip flight for just $326 to one of the six European destinations without COVID-19 entry requirements is truly the icing on the cake.

These fares are offered by TAP, Portugal's flag carrier, which frequently provides more affordable flights to Europe compared to its competitors, often with a layover in Lisbon (LIS). Back in 2017, I took a one-way flight with TAP from Newark (EWR) to Brussels (BRU) for around $200, benefiting from student discounts at the time.

Today's offer comes courtesy of Scott's Cheap Flights, featuring deals from various U.S. cities primarily available from November 2021 to early March 2022, including some routes around Thanksgiving but excluding the Christmas and New Year holidays.

Keep in mind that layovers are often part of these flight deals, including one nearly 15 hours long as illustrated above, so consider this if long layovers are not ideal for you. The total fare covers taxes and fees for one adult. TAP's economy class allows one personal item and one bag under 17 lbs, with an option to check a bag for $32.

When you arrive in Amsterdam, I recommend exploring the De Pijp neighborhood, where I stayed in an Airbnb during my last trip in 2019. Don't miss the Albert Cuyp Market, where I loved the fries, Dutch hotdogs topped with potato crisps at Bulls and Dog, gluten-free vegan pancakes at Mr. Stacks (currently closed), and the trendy café, Coffee and Coconuts (see below).
