Trying to decide where I want to go this year... I've narrowed my choices to
Prague in April 700-850 a ticket
Austria in April or July 900-1300
London April 700-900
Or
Porto in June 800-950

Which would you choose and while I'm open to others these places are on my bucket list along with a few more. However, Europe before Asia/Australia for me.

Where are you located? I’d think you could beat those prices with a little patience

New Orleans and I'm always looking, I found Lisbon last year after Thanksgiving for 450. I haven't seen anything close to that yet.

Yes and no, I travel alone because she doesn't like to fly and allows it under a certain amount.

Austria is lovely, any time of the year.

I’m a big fan of London these days, in part bc the nonstop from MSY is a very easy flight. It’s such a layered city, full of interesting things and with plenty of cool nearby day trips. Terrific food, too.....from ultra high end to fish n chips. No language barrier makes it super easy to visit with minimal prep or research.

If I were traveling solo, I’d probably opt for London.

Where in Austria - Vienna?

I'd probably vote Prague but I love Austria. A trip to Budapest is also easily done from Vienna.

Fly into Quito Ecuador $365 out of MSY on COPA April 18-25. Visit Quito, Cuenca, Salinas or evening the Galápagos Islands, just depends on your interest.

What a diverse & beautiful country.

I dont really think you can go wrong with any of those.

Are there any festivals or events going on in the countries you listed during the travel times?

Was in Prague in April a few years ago and really enjoyed the Easter markets they had set up.

In order of preference:
Halstatt, Austria
Salzburg

Prague
Cesky Krumlov, Czech Rep.

Vienna is worth a day, but I get bored there after awhile.

My take...Salzburg, train to Halstatt, back to Salzburg, high speed train to Munich, fly home.

ETA - Budapest (AKA...Buttpaste), is worth a visit, especially if you do the day cruise to Szentendre.
