Don’t you just love going to Europe? And if you haven’t been there ever, don’t you just dream of going there someday? There’s something about that continent that always attracts people, seasoned and newbie travelers alike. It’s probably because Europe is just so rich in historical and artistic culture. When one thinks of art and music, images of Beethoven, da Vinci, and even the Mona Lisa easily comes to mind. Europe has its own magic which continually captivates people. So it is not surprising to find many tourists flocking the continent from all sorts of nationalities.      Although Europe remains to be one of the best travel destinations in the entire world, it is also a known fact that European airfare is rather costly. A big key top this is the currency conversion of euros. Typically of course, we would purchase tickets to Europe based on our own respective currencies. But the thing is, they are still expensive because they need to meet the financial balance in euros. Because of this, people choose to just dream about going to Europe. But actually, that shouldn’t be the case. There are various way sin which you can get yourself cheap flights to Europe.

      The first thing you need to consider if you are going to Europe is the period of your travel. You should know when the off-peak seasons in going to Europe are. During lean months, you are sure to be able to book cheap flights to Europe. Months from April to June and September to October are considered to be high season so chances are, ticket prices would shoot up because people be more concerned with booking a flight rather than the costs. Usually, the lean season kicks off by November and goes on until February.

      Aside from the months, the day itself can give you chance to obtain cheap flights to Europe. Often times, Tuesdays and Wednesdays are considered to be off-peak days and since there are but a few fliers to Europe during these days, airline companies would offer discounts and other promos to be able to attract travelers. Moreover, cheap flights to Europe usually come up with departure times set at dawn.

      And another thing which you can do to get cheap flights to Europe is by means of purchasing a return ticket. One-way tickets seem to be such a money saving option because you pay half or sometimes more than half than what you would with two tickets. However, most airline companies offer discounts for travelers who choose to buy return tickets because they get to offer their services a couple of times instead of just once. Sometimes, companies would not say this at first so you would have to be mindful of such offers. It’s a part of their marketing strategy but if you’re wise enough, you can actually use it to your advantage.

      See, flying to Europe need not be a dream forever. You can actually make it comes true if you just plan it well and consider all options. After all, there’s always the internet to help aid you on these. Within a few clicks, you may already find yourself jet-setting towards Europe.

More Europe, Less Euros: Travelling on the Cheap   by Andrew Rega

The first thing that should be on your mind when it comes to booking your holiday in Europe is arranging your flights. It may sound obvious, but the easiest way to save money on your flights is to book well in advance. According to many travel experts the best time to reserve your flights is eleven months in advance of your trip, due to the flights just being released. As a result, plenty of cheaper seats will be available. The opposite is also true, as booking at the last minute can result in substantial savings as airlines try to fill up their unsold seats.

Further savings can be made on your European sojourn by simply splitting the cost with your travelling companions. Depending on the accommodation you wish to stay in during your trip, you could save a considerable amount of money. Staying in youth hostels, which, despite the name, are no longer just the preserve of the youth, as many hostels now have family rooms, is always a financially sound option and if you do decide to split the cost, it could ending up costing you next to nothing. Investigate cheap hotel chains as well, as many are significantly cheaper than their Travelodge cousins in Britain. In France, for example, many budget hotels offer three person rooms for under £20 a night.

Keeping an eye on the exchange rates is also a useful idea. Fluctuations between the Pound and the Euro could be the difference between a leisurely, fun packed holiday and a minimalist, dull one. For example, Greece, a once cheap option for a family holiday, has become relatively expensive on the back of its entry to the European Union and its view of itself as an Olympic host and European football champion; while Italy on the other hand, remains very reasonable. With that in mind, do some research and find countries that offer competitive rates on accommodation, food and tourist attractions.

Depending on your destination, it’s worth remembering when planning your holiday that renting a car may be more convenient than relying on pubic transport. Cheap car hire in Spain and Tenerife, for example, is relatively easy to find and allows for far greater flexibility.

Quite possibly the best tip for saving money on your European holiday is to shop around for a low cost insurance policy. The travel agent - online or on the High Street - will attempt to sell you insurance but many travel experts recommend arranging your own instead, as it’s almost a guarantee that similar cover can be found for a lower price elsewhere. This rule also applies to European breakdown cover. While we’ve all heard of the RAC and AA, it’s worth bearing in mind that it’s still just insurance and a number of companies will offer the same thing for less money.

When booking a European holiday on a budget, the easiest way to save money is simply to shop around for the best deals, with the internet being a godsend to travellers wishing to book their own trips. Research the countries you’re planning on visiting too and make yourself aware of any opportunities to save money on food or accommodation. By taking all of the above into account, your European trip is sure to be a great experience which won’t break the bank.

Cheap Flights   by Leigh White

Most cheap flights travellers have faced the occasional moment of clarity when they have questioned their own wisdom in using cheap

flights carriers. Those moments often arrive when your flight has just been cancelled or you’ve just been hit with a bill for the 300

grams of excess baggage you had the misfortune to accumulate on your holiday.

There are, in all honesty, no shortage of shortcomings when it comes to the cheap flights industry but there is no question it has

revolutionised the planet for countless thousands of ordinary people.

For many living in large or remote countries they would simply never have had the opportunity to visit foreign countries if it weren’t for

cheap flights.

And for those living in Europe, the entire region has become a potential long-weekend destination.

The market for long and short distance travel has expanded rapidly since early innovators such as Ryan Air came on the scene in the late

1990s. This brand new demographic of international travellers, while not without their drawbacks, are certainly expanding the tourism

opportunities across the globe.

For Australians the entire Asian region has been opened up with a number of cheap flights

airlines competing with each other to drive prices down.

Local tourism operators in places like the UK have turned out to be some of the biggest losers, however, as they are suddenly competing

with Spain, Portugal and Italy for the weekend holidayer market.

Where before the choice for the average English family was a weekend in either Brighton or Portsmouth, now destinations such as Amsterdam,

Cairo and Prague are just a cheap flight away. And they are proving irresistible with record numbers of travellers taking up the

opportunity to fly internationally each year.

Some good tips for booking cheap flights:

• Always book ahead: Savings will always be at their maximum if you can book your ticket well in advance.
• Travel in off-peak times: Travelling during off-peak and shoulder seasons between Autumn and Spring are always cheaper than summer.
• Don’t be afraid to use a travel agency: Some of these get access to great deals and if you are a first time international travellerthey can take some of the heartache out of the experience.
• Research on the internet: there are many fantastic cheap flights websites out there with access to some great package deals.
• Safety concerns have arisen in certain regions in recent times - particularly in Asia and Africa. When it comes to air travel, theword “cheap” should never apply to safety. If an airline cannot compete in the marketplace without slashing their safety budget then it

  should forfeit its right to operate at all. Make sure you check the safety record of your airline.

The girls on their hens party are screaming at the guys on their stag party, the leg room is cramped, the hostess is rude and the

departure time came and went before you boarded… but after arrival, as you sit back and soak up the warm foreign sun on distant shores -

without having to break the bank - you’ll reflect on just how great cheap flights are.

Cheap flights have changed the world.

New Low Cost Airline to Offer Cheap Flights to Malta   by Edward Penza

One of Europe’s leading low-fare airlines, Norwegian Air Shuttle, is set to start operating a route between Oslo and Malta from April 2008 onwards.The announcement was made after Norwegian AS — one of Europe’s leading low-cost airlines — successfully concluded negotiations with Malta International Airport (MIA) and the Malta Tourism Authority (MTA), opening the doors for Norwegian AS to operate the route offering cheap flights to Malta.

Norwegian Air Shuttle will operate two flights to Malta a week, every Tuesday and Saturday, and is expected to move tourism to Malta in Norway, providing the Mediterranean island with a new influx in tourism. Joining the likes of Ryanair, who have been operating direct routes to Malta for over a year with relative success.

The addition of yet another low cost airline is expected to further boost tourist numbers visiting Malta and Norwegian Air Shuttle opens a window of opportunity to attract more Scandinavian tourists to visit the Maltese islands. Malta’s economy heavily depends on tourism and the introduction of low cost airlines to offer cheap flights to Malta is seen as a positive move by the authorities who had been protective of national airline Air Malta.

Norwegian AS commenced operations in September 2002 with four domestic routes and six B737-300 aircraft but has grown considerably since then and nowadays has 31 aircrafts and an additional 53 new B737-800’s on order from early next year. The low-cost airline offers a flight network of 128 routes to 76 destinations from Norway, Sweden and Poland.

“We are very proud to include Malta in our already extensive European network” said Daniel Skjeldam, Chief Commercial Officer of Norwegian AS.

“Malta has always been a favourite destination for Scandinavians and we realised that there is a great demand, judging from the numerous enquiries we receive from our customers. We believe that with low prices and a direct flight, it will be a success”. Mr Skjeldam added.

He went on to say that the airline is collaborating with the MTA and MIA to promote the route in Norway, offering cheap flights to Malta, and he expressed his appreciation for the support that both entities have shown throughout.
