Leaving out of RDU on May 2, returning May 9. Ticketed price was just $420 round trip, but I used Ultimate Rewards points from my new Sapphire Reserve card and only needed about 28k points.

My plan is to have this be a solo trip so I want to get a motorcycle and ride through southern France to Italy and back. I'm more interested in food, wine and great views than anything else.

Any opinions or input is welcome.

The alps by motorcycle would be pretty awesome. I've driven from Munich to Northern Italy and back twice. Its an amazing drive. I'm not sure I'd go much into Italy on a motorcycle unless you are very experienced as they drive insane there.

Same here, had been throwing around the idea of going to a conference in Madrid in August. Randomly check flights today and got a horseshoe from AEX to Barcelona, coming back Madrid to AEX for $450 on Delta. Crazy cheap.

Could have a pretty nice time with a few days in barcelona, a few days driving up the costa brava and costa sol and then into the mountains for a spell. Enjoy! Such a cool area of the world.
