We also like the SAS airpasses ( which are especially good for trips to thinly-populated Scandinavia - you can get most international flights between Scandinavian countries for $80, provided they're bought along with a transatlantic ticket on SAS. This pass must be bought in conjunction with a transatlantic ticket on a OneWorld carrier such as the ones listed above. The OneWorld Visit Europe Pass ( brings together British Airways, American Airlines, Iberia, Finnair and Aer Lingus for a strong European route map and flight prices as low as $65, but they'll hit you for $150 or more if you're taking a long leg across the Continent. Other airpasses have more confusing pricing schemes, but their route maps might fit better with your trip. And their peculiar route map has hidden advantages: flying out of smaller airports means shorter lines and fewer delays, and you might see a few cities you wouldn't have stumbled upon otherwise. Their route map is odd, but if you can fit your trip to their routes, they're a wonderfully low-stress way to fly. The simplest pass out there is from EuropeByAir ( 888/387-2479 For $99 per flight, with no cancellation fees, change penalties, or advance-purchase requirements, you can bounce on small regional carriers between 30 European countries. If you want to get a quick taste of different European regions, or want to include Ireland in your European trip, traveling by air might be the best thing for you. Getting from Lisbon to Paris, for instance, takes two days on a train, or two and a half hours on a plane.

Why fly around Europe when the trains are so good? It depends on how much of a hurry you're in.
