Underrated US cities 🇺🇸 in $70s-$290s RT

Premium Deal Alert: 16 January 2025

An overseas vacay is always cool. But let's not forget about all the trip-worthy places right here in our own backyard!

Flight Finder Allan even wrote a whole article about the most underrated cities in the good ol' US of A. Fun fact: Every single one of those cities shows up at least once in this deal (except for Juneau, sorry Alaska superfans).

So who needs the Grand Palace when you've got the Grand Kugel instead? And you know Big Ben can't hold a candle to the Big Idaho Potato.

I feel more patriotic already :-)
