Some Delta customers scored a late Christmas present on Thursday.

Delta acknowledged a glitch caused steeply-discounted tickets to be offered online Thursday -- some for as low as $27, according to customers.

They celebrated their finds on social media, including cross-country flights for $40 and Boston to Honolulu lifts for $68. One customer said she bought tickets between Tallahassee and Los Angeles for $27 each way.
