Answering the decades-long call of Native American tribes and environmentalists alike, President Joe Biden earlier this week created a new national monument buffering parts of Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona. Meaning “where tribes roam” to the Havasupai people and “our ancestral footprints” in the Hopi language, Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni covers 917,618 acres across three distinct sites north and south of the natural wonder. Home to wildlife like bison, elk, mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and rare cactus species, the protected area encompasses plateaus, canyons, Colorado River tributaries, and countless culturally and spiritually significant sites for the Indigenous peoples of the Southwest.

Be warned that the basic $199 fare only includes one personal item that must be 17″ x 13″ x 10″ or less, and that you’ll have to pay extra for carry-on and checked bags, seat reservations, and in-flight meals. Want to splurge? A WOW premium seat to India will start at $699, which includes a roomier seat, two checked bags, one carry-on bag, one personal item, cancellation protection, fast track security in Iceland, priority boarding, an in-flight meal, and no change fee.
The new India routes will launch flights in December 2018, but the $199 flights are currently only available from January 2019 to March 2019. Book quickly if you’re interested: According to WOW air, only 4,200 seats will be available at the lowest rate, and they must be booked as part of a round-trip ticket.
