re: MSY to Europe Flights - help needed (May 24-Jun 2 window)

Op figure out your trip first. You have London, Paris, Amsterdam, frankfurt, Munich, Barcelona, Rome, Milan, Dublin, etc. that would all likely be cheapest to fly directly into than to fly somewhere else and get there.

Set a flight tracker on google flights. You can likely get sub $800 flights into many of those depending on where you are flying out of.
