How can I get around Europe on a budget?
It used to be that getting around Europe was a matter of getting a EU rail Pass, and there are actually lots of opportunities still to do that. Recently there has been an upsurge in budget airlines and you can get terrific deals on those budget airlines for flying say, from London to Paris, Paris to Prague and the Czech Republic. The fares are amazingly low. The trick is that sometimes they fly into off airports. For example, you are not necessarily flying into London's Heathrow. You may be flying into Stansted, for example, which isn't exactly in the heart of the city. If you are flying into what you think is Barcelona, it may not actually be Barcelona. It may be 50 miles outside of Barcelona, so that's something to take into consideration. These budget airlines have made a tremendous difference in travel within Europe.
