Are budget airlines a good deal?
2008-04-17 17:38:00 With budget airlines, you can fly between European cities for startlingly low prices. But, is there a hitch to that €20 flight from London to Venice? Maybe. Here’s our quick recap of budget airline advantages and disadvantages. Some pros 1) You can fly for cheap, especially with advance planning. How? There are many ways to fly for close to nothing. Lots of airlines offer promotional fares that are essentially free, requiring customers to pay for taxes and incremental charges only. 2) Transportation is quick. For example, traveling from Paris to Warsaw by train will take a minimum of 15 hours, with many connections taking 20 hours. An air journey takes just two and a quarter hours. 3) Multi-stop holidays in Europe can be effortlessly and inexpensively scheduled. The low-cost carrier business model is based on one-way fares, not roundtrips. Leisure travelers who don’t have to adhere to strict schedules can flexibly plan very affordable hops around Europe. 4) Approached...
