Save up to 152,000 miles or up to 44% with cash

We’ve all been singing a pretty sad song for the last year or so.

Out of tune. No rhythm. Bad lyrics. The list goes on…

But as Europe starts to reopen, so does our songbook, and it’s music to our ears. So now it’s time to jump on booking that longed-for vacation. We’re finding some great deals on offer (the risk is baritone-low if you change your mind).

So without further ado, please welcome to the stage FCF’s Top 10 Euro Deals featured in this chart-topping chart, a combination of the cheapest and best flights. Drumroll please…

Talk about earworms! Look at those savings — right up to 44% off. And there’s plenty of availability. Lot’s of it, in fact.

Don’t see your route listed?

See our report on “The Art of Skipping Stones & What We Can All Learn from the Boise to Budapest Premium Traveler.” You can often get free or low-cost connecting flights in the U.S. to major hubs and/or within Europe, or just use that transatlantic flight as a “bridge route” at the worst.

Change Your Tune?

If you want to change or cancel your ticket, Emirates, Iberia and Virgin Atlantic are currently offering a “travel fee waiver” that includes award flights. It means it won’t cost you anything to change your tune. So sing it loud.
