For the purposes of this article, I searched for flights from Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) to Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN). The airline doesn’t offer daily service, so there’s only a handful of dates to choose from in September.

I entered the promo code when booking, and the round-trip cost successfully decreased from $270 to $154.

Since this is a budget carrier, expect to pay for any extras, such as seat selection or a carry-on bag. This promo code is not valid on previously booked itineraries.
