On Thursday, WOW Air announced that it will offer tickets from the US to Europe for as low as $55 to commemorate the airline’s fifth anniversary.

“We want to celebrate our anniversary and share our great success by offering the best prices ever seen,” said WOW Air founder and CEO Skúli Mogensen said in a statement.

The $55 tickets will be available for flights between Los Angeles and San Francisco to Amsterdam, Netherlands; Copenhagen, Denmark; Dublin, Ireland; London, England; and Berlin, Germany.

In addition, the discounted tickets will be available for flights from Miami to destinations such as Brussels, Belgium; Edinburgh, Scotland; and Frankfurt, Germany.

The $55 tickets go on sale June 1, 2017, for travel between June 11 and June 28, 2017.

In total, 100 seats from Miami, 150 tickets from Los Angeles, and 200 seats from San Francisco will be available at the $55 price point. So, act fast!

WOW’s flights from California will be operated using its fleet of new Airbus A330-300 widebody airliners.

The Iceland low-cost carriers made waves in January when it offered flights to Europe for as low as $69 as part of its promise to offer cheapest flights across the Atlantic.

WOW, which was founded in November 2011, has grown considerably in the past few years. The airline said it transported a 1.67 million passengers in 2016. Mogensen told Business Insider in January that he expects that number to reach 6 million by 2020.
