Great Site for Discount Airlines around Europe

Over the last few years there's been a lot of interest in discount airlines around Europe. Some of you may have heard of Ryan Air, an airline that flies between many cities for sometimes super-low fares, 19 euros or even much less (although they do usually have more restrictions on luggage weight and charge for extra). I have a friend who creates his own interesting discounted version of luxury travel by flying on Maxair (all business class) to London for $999 roundtrip and from London tacks on Ryan Air to get to his final destination.

But I recently got to realize that Europe is filled with bargain airlines, and the potential city combinations are endless! Many of the airlines are actually quite well rated too based on a recent article in the New York Times. For example, they rave about Flybaboo, extolling virtues of its airport lounge, service and amenities, all while flying from Switzerland to Prague for 8 Swiss francs!

So how to find out if you can use these discounted airlines to create a European itinerary that has you hopping between wonderful cities and countries? Go to flylc.com and you will find a search engine that shows you lists of cities and for each city every airline which services it, and all the destinations possible!

The first time I looked, I was astounded by all the possibilities... you could create an incredible and varied vacation by just getting to Europe and then hopping all around. If you ever think of taking a trip there and want to see if you can enhance it, flylc.com might be a great place to investigate.
