1-800-FlyEurope $644 LAX to Rome?
Travelzoo emailed about a winter airfare sale to Europe yesterday. Must depart before March 31, 2007 and return within 90 days. The base fare is $382 + $262 Taxes/FuelSurcharges = $644 per ticket flying out on a Friday night, returning on a Monday. (Saturday return $100/ticket more, and Sunday not available.)
Anyone ever booked thru 1-800-flyEurope? Their email address is "AutoEurope.com" which has been around for quite awhile renting cars. The airline carrier is SWISS AIR, which is actually a nice flight since we can leave the west coast in the evening and fly non-stop to Zurich and get lots of sleep. Then, a short hop from Zurich to Rome. No changing planes in at JFK or Philly like when we fly the US carriers.
It's such a crap shoot trying to figure out if the fares are going to go any lower. On one hand, it is still a little early for the winter sales. But on the other hand, $644 may not be exciting for an EAST coast fare, but is only a little higher than $599, which would be a pretty decent WEST coast fare for Rome.
What to do? What to do? I have it on 24-hour hold, as we have to buy FOUR tickets (cough, cough).
WHAT DO YOU THINK???? DEAL OR NO DEAL??

, Only kidding I have 1539
, I will sort them out if I get a chance one day and post some more. I planed on writing the reviews when we were done with the review area which was just pushed back. I will start on it and post it in Shaggy's forum by I hope next week.
