India & Sri Lanka 
in $750s-$900s RT

We're sending you off for the weekend with a bit of India (and a side of Sri Lankan sunsets!)
Chicago is obviously the big winner here, scoring both the sole Colombo route AND a selection of other rarities. The catch is that most of them have 12-24 hour layovers on the way out, but here's the thing — they're in Hong Kong. Downtown is a 20 minute hop from the airport, it's walkable and compact, and you don't even need a visa to enter. It's basically just a free day trip!
The rest of you have to choose between Mumbai and New Delhi. Which is better for travelers is a hotly debated topic, but all roads lead to tasty street food :-)
