What’s the cheapest place to fly to in Europe in or around this window?
Could fly out of MSY or BR or Houston (if discount to do so is enough).

In my experience Dublin and Rome were relatively cheap.
Athens and Paris were a little more $$$

I recently booked Tampa —> Prague —> Vienna —-> Budapest —> Tampa for 8 days at $1,100 per person all in for March 24’. Only two connections along the way. I’d imagine Houston could do the same or better.

Not amazing; but, quite good by modern standards. I’m seeing lots of good deals to London, Amsterdam, Munich and Eastern Europe right now.

I am also looking for flights around that date but pending on what locations we are going to. Im just curious if you had an itinerary yet so I can get some ideas. Looking at tours it's hard to see what is legit.

We are looking at that time frame also. Flying into Spain, either Madrid or Barcelona and flying out of Rome

This past summer I flew to Vienna, then took a train to Prague & Budapest. It was cheapest to fly back from Lisbon.

That’s gonna be a horrible trip due to not being able to settle down more than a day or so

Works out pretty well actually. Roughly 2 to 2 1/2 days in each City. Flights between stops are in the evening and short direct flights so we check in to the hotel and wake up in a new City.

Really wish we could put a moratorium on this board on people saying trips don’t have enough time for each city.

Yes we all get it. 6 weeks in the south of France, engrossing oneself into local culture of one small hill town for is the ideal travel and way to understand a place. Most of us get like 2 weeks PTO.

I've got unlimited PTO (Which we all know isn't unlimited) but I just want to see more places. After 3-4 days in a city I'm ready to see something new.

What to know about the ETIAS requirements Starting in 2024, American passport holders traveling to 30 European countries will need to receive authorization to travel via the ETIAS, a long-awaited measure designed to prevent terrorism.

I would caution you about this timeframe. It gets pretty hot in Europe in the summer & they aren’t too fond of AC over there. We went to Italy, Switzerland, and France in June this year. It was a great trip, but very hot (high 90’s). Our AC in the Zurich hotel (a brand new Hyatt) would not get below 74. I called the front desk and they thought I was crazy for thinking it should be colder. Same story in Paris, but it was even hotter and we asked for another room twice.

I stayed in a hotel room in Rome where you had to leave you room key in a switch for the AC to work. I’d get back to my room at night and it was 80+* in there. So, I jumpered the switch with a clothes hanger and got the AC working while I was gone. The manager found out from the cleaning ladies and the dude lost his shite on me
