re: A few tips for Student Travelers and others traveling internationally...

The issue is I am not looking for next couple of months, I am looking for April-June 2017 and the cheapest current is 1140 RT.


However, because we want to visit Lisbon, Barcelona, and Madrid we are probably flying either into Lisbon or Barcelona and working our way to the other. So I'm looking for a one-way ticket moreso.

One way to Lisbon for the months I'm looking at: 667 in April and May. 967 in June currently.

One way to Barcelona: 964 in April, 1,212 in May, 1,212 in June currently.

So even booking the 667 to Lisbon my return flight from Barcelona the cheapest is 1,881 currently. At least for the 16-20 days I plan on being in the countries.

Of course, I plan on traveling by train once I've landed but for my flights from New Orleans it isn't "600."

Now they may have better deals the closer I get and I'm waiting to see if I can't find another deal how we had recently at around 400. But what I am currently looking at is exactly what I stated earlier.
