It is no secret that flying to Europe can be expensive, but here is a tip that can make the flight a lot less expensive.  Flights are usually cheaper to Dublin or London than other cities in Europe.  So regardless of your destinations in Europe, check the prices for flights to London and Dublin.  If it is significantly cheaper to fly to one of these cities, then look into a budget flight to your final destination.  Ryanair and easyJet offer great deals on flights all over Europe.  If these airlines don’t go to your destination, check www.skyscanner.net.

I have saved a lot of money on flights to Europe by doing this.  Although it is definitely less convenient.  Make sure to allow a few hours between your arriving flight and departing flight because you will need to go through customs and check in to your next flight.

Let me know if you have any questions on this!
