Air France puts Europe on sale – book today

Sure, everybody wants to go to Europe in the summer, but that’s the problem – crowded restaurants, crowded flights. Crowds period. Consider a contrarian approach, a trip during the winter. Do that and Air France will jet you there for as little as $184.

Today, Wednesday, September 27, is the last day to take advantage of this deal. You’ll be able to travel from October 30 through March 31, 2007. High holiday season — December 15 through January 7 — is blacked out. All the discount airfares we’re about to quote are one-way, and predicated on a round-trip purchase. Neither taxes nor fees are included. They’re extra.
