In previous articles on this site, we’ve covered the primary budget airlines that fly in a few major countries – but perhaps the best crop of budget airlines is in Europe. Many of the low-cost carriers in the US tend to be regional, only serving a portion of the country – but in Europe, the budget airlines not only cover the country they’re based in but also typically many other countries in Europe besides.
Using the budget airlines that fly in Europe has become such a cheap way to get around that even the traditional Euro backpackers are often opting for a cheap one-way flight from one city to another instead of the time-honored Eurail pass and overnight train. Unfortunately, the vast majority of them don’t fly all the way across the ocean to get you from the US directly – but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be informed about them anyway.
There are a couple ways in which Europe’s budget airlines can be useful to you, which I’ll outline below – and then you’ll find a list of some of the more prominent budget airlines in Europe.
Have you ever dreamed of visiting France? Have you ever thought that you needed to win the lottery to afford such a vacation? If so, try to think of alternatives for a moment. Especially when you travel with a group of friends, it’s cheaper to rent a holiday apartment rather than book hotel rooms. ”
The summer officially ended – although in many European countries you can still flaunt a lovely tank top and not freeze in it – and most travelers think about planning the winter vacation or figuring out where to head to for the holidays. But, wait! Autumn is an excellent time to explore Europe even if your budget is stubborn. The low-season is the perfect opportunity to search for those 
Although my family used to pack up us kids nearly every summer and head to France, this has not been a tradition I have been easily able to carry on with me into my adulthood. Unfortunately being a young professional with student loans and poor college student have left me little by means of travel funds—ultimately leading to me staying off the continent of Europe in the summertime for the past several years. However, luckily, airfares to Europe this summer seem to be even lower than many low season fares, which is great for those poor students and young folks like me. The economy may be crap and preventing many of us from finding jobs, but at least we can fly to Europe for cheaper. Hooray! 
The resurgence of the dollar and unbelievably low airfares are making for ideal conditions to take that trip to Europe this summer. In fact, with prices lower than they have been in ages, you’d be foolish not to take advantage of some of the deals out there at the moment. 
Perhaps the most depressing part of being an “adult” is that no matter what I do, I will never again experience the pure bliss involved when you hear the school bell ring for the last time for a whole 3 months. The anticipation, the glory, the pure joy of knowing you’re off for THE WHOLE summer to hang out at the pool and eat popsicles just can’t be recreated. So, in efforts to get as close to the euphoria of “school’s out for the summer,” I always like to book a great summer vacation to look forward to. Especially with prices across the travel industry way down this year, you can save mucho dinero by everything from airfare to hotels. 
During the past 14 months or so that I have posted travel deals on this little ol’ blog of ours, I have come across some fantastic travel deals, as well as some deals that were merely average. On the scale of merely average to fantastic, I have to say that the deals I found today are beyond fantastic.
It is a good thing we have a laid back attitude or otherwise those of us who live on the West Coast of the United States might get a bit angry about always playing second fiddle to those on the right coast. Our sports teams are often ignored, our television schedules determined by those who live next to the Atlantic, and our states often overlooked by those who think the universe is centered between Washington, DC and Boston.
Compared to North America and other locations in the world, Europe is a compact continent that is generally easy to traverse by public transportation, especially if you have a 
If you have been looking for deals on cheap flights to Europe this summer you know that they are harder to come by than the proverbial needle in a haystack. Why anyone would look for a needle in a haystack is beyond me, but I can relate to those of you scouring the interwebs for affordable flights during the summer months. After all, summer is the best time to travel for so many of us.
