The web’s been abuzz this week with news that flights to Europe have been cropping up for under $300 as a result of — as Mr. Frommer postulates — the huge decline in trans-Atlantic flyers. Which, if true, means it’s only a matter of time before the airlines stop slashing [...]

As far as conversions go, Japan’s got to be one of the worst places to travel to right now. But be honest, when has lack of money ever really stopped you from traveling before? At least there are a few (okay 10) ways you can save a few thousand Yen [...]

Well, maybe not nothing, but there are some insane deals right now for flights across the Pacific. I don’t know what it is with American lately, but they’ve been practically giving away seats this winter (remember last week’s deals to South America?). Good news for travelers, perhaps bad news for [...]

I know that I’ve somewhat been harping on this whole dollar-is-good-to-travel-with-again story for a while now, but for all those readers outside of Obamaland, at least let us Americans revel in this for at least a little while before it inevitably ends (ahem — bank bailouts, deficit spending, etc…).

It’s probably best not to be too vocal while your on the street about the fact that one of the main reasons you’re in a particular country is how cheap everything is and how your otherwise meager lifestyle is elevated to that of a swingin’ business mogul during your trip. [...]

As if Americans weren’t already envious enough of Europe’s wide selection of low cost airlines that charge less than the price of what most airlines in America tack on to check a second bag, they’ve now gone ahead and instituted a price war, driving fares even lower. “Let’s hope there [...]

Are you one of those people that googles for promo codes before you book your flight? Well, apparently the airlines are making it easier and increasing promo code availability, hoping to siphon you away from those affiliate sites that they’re forced to pony up a commission to every time you [...]

It may a little ways off, but Ryanair is envisioning of one day starting a new airline where one way tickets for flights across the Atlantic would be as low as £10, which is almost what I paid just to be able to watch a movie at my seat during [...]
