Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny brought the island’s culture to center stage on Sunday during the Super Bowl LX halftime show, filling Levi’s Stadium’s field with native Puerto Rican vegetation and performing almost entirely in Spanish. It was a love letter to the island, and it likely sparked some wanderlust in viewers. If his electric performance had you dreaming of palm trees, sandy beaches and the sounds of reggaeton, now is your chance to make that dream a reality.
Right now, there’s solid award availability to fly American Airlines to San Juan’s Luis Munoz Marin International Airport (SJU) for as few as 8,000 American Airlines AAdvantage miles each way. Whether you want to explore Old San Juan, hit the beaches along the island’s northeast coast or eat your way through the local food scene, this deal makes it easy to book a trip without packing your passport.
Read on to learn what routes are available and how to book this deal.
