Cheap flights and travel info - Germany

Finding cheap flights to start your travels is not all that easy these days. After taxes and fuel prices are added on top of your initial offer you might choose to stay at home after all in some cases.
The main ports for international flights in Germany are Frankfurt, Berlin and Munich.

Being flexible helps. Avoiding peak times such as summer and Christmas holidays gives you a better chance of obtaining a fair deal.

Last minute flights can be found in many magazine adds and on the internet. Sometimes good deals can be found this way but it can be hard finding your destination among the offers.

On-line booking. Flights within Germany are operated by Lufthansa and some smaller companies. Several low budget airlines like Easy Jet, Ryan Air and Virgin Express have good offers within Europe and Germany.
Booking a flight on-line can sometimes save you a bundle compared to booking the same itinerary with a travel agent overseas.

Travel within Germany by train is also worth checking out as there are sometimes special discount offers.

Bucket shops in places where lots of travellers roam can be useful too, however they sometimes do not book the online cheap ones.

Round the world tickets (RTW) can be a very good deal. These can usually only be obtained from travel agents. Airline alliances can offer interesting combinations to get you around the globe combining several continents for as little as U$ 2000,-

Be careful what you get as some cheap deals are very inflexible. No changes, no refunds when you have to cancel etc. ; ask before you pay.
