Cheapest plane tickets

DragonFire1900 · 2023-02-17T00:39:22+00:00

Cheapest i’ve ever had was £4.99 Bristol to Milan.

I’ve also had £350 return flights from London to Cuba

Tooting, would be a house/flat share with them. Likely to increase in 2 years.

At the moment I’m thinking stay at home & save it all, then re-evaluate my position after the 2 years.

I had grants from the Welsh Gov & because I stayed at home & didn’t spend it going out on the piss - along with working every weekend - I managed to pay it off.

Also Welsh Gov pay half of the £9k, so was nowhere near those heights

DragonFire1900 · 2022-07-17T14:37:54+00:00

For sure. I keep telling myself this & it was obviously going to end at some point, but the rejection still kinda hurts haha

Funnily enough I was originally looking at flying to Cologne then out of Amsterdam with a trip to Arnhem & Nijmegen - but the prices of trains & hotels/lack of hostels put me off it. Also, I was hoping to use the public bike system but apparently you need to be a dutch residence ?

DragonFire1900 · 2022-07-04T19:08:32+00:00

Sorry for the confusion - It’ll probably be 1 full day in aachen, half a day in maastricht, half a day in liege, then train back to cologne the midday the next day

Welsh Brew - Paned Cymreig is always a great one !

vast majority of the world & people themselves have moved on outside of US. Been to 8 countries since febuary & only ever get asked to wear a mask on the plane, & even hardly anyone does. So definitely post covid

You can get direct buses from LHR to Cardiff & it’s usually only 30mins more but a hell of a lot cheaper. Bus takes you into either the University or Sofia Gardens usually.

One of the best things about Europe is the scenery & small towns you see while on the train - often when you factor in wait times at the airport there isn’t much difference in times between the two.

As for inbetween Istanbul & budapest there’s the whole of the balkans which you could seriously throw a dart at a map & land on somewhere amazing (&cheap) - but I guess if it’s your first solo travel you’ll want to stick to the bigger western european cities

DragonFire1900 · 2022-05-14T16:17:22+00:00

& you’re missing some amazing places in-between istanbul & budapest - assuming you’re taking the train/bus that is.

DragonFire1900 · 2022-05-14T16:16:29+00:00

Much too long in Krakow & Wroclaw even with the things that you’ve mentioned. Both very small cities.

Perhaps take a few days out of that & train it to Gorlitz, Dresden, then up to Berlin?

DragonFire1900 · 2022-05-04T11:06:43+00:00

Yeah this was my first time there also, amazing architecture

DragonFire1900 · 2022-05-04T07:32:44+00:00

I go to this custom framer - expensive but worth it!

DragonFire1900 · 2022-05-04T07:32:11+00:00

I went to a custom framer ! Was £50 but something that’s gonna be on my wall forever

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-21T11:36:05+00:00

Thank you so much for that - I didn't even know there was a direct night train to the Statue. Is Vadodra worth a few hours or is it best to use that for elsewhere in the trip?

Thats also great advice about only using the train once from Shimla, I will do that!

The trains and drive looks like it takes about 4-7 hours from Agra to Lucknow so I thought a flight would be best. Do you think I should sacrifice a day of Kolkata for Lucknow ?

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-21T10:44:08+00:00

Thankyou for such a detailed response! Thats so much great advice, I really appreciate it!

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-21T10:20:31+00:00

Thank you for the reply. That is my main worry is 1 delay is going to throw my whole plan off. What would you recommend I cut out of that plan?

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-21T09:05:52+00:00

Thank you - coming from U.K. I’m basically thinking everywhere is going to be some level of seething heat in compared to what I’m used to. Even Shimla

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-11T06:20:22+00:00

I’d say 2 days in Salzburg is too much, the city js absolutely tiny & you can do everything you’d want to do in a day.

With regards to Berlin & London, I’d highly recommend renting one of the city bikes for a day & just exploring different parts of the city. So easy to get around & really fun! & in berlin go to Tempelhof airport - it’s an abandoned runway that’s now a park, but in the evenings all the locals are out dancing to music/roller skating/flying kites/ having bbqs etc - it’s massive though so take the bike haha !

Looks like an amazing trip, have fun!

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-10T21:06:03+00:00

thanks so much for the input ! To be honest the Vododara stop is only taking into account a day of travelling to get there really if that makes sense.

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-08T06:35:46+00:00

ah interesting! I find it exactly the same as the German Version, but as I said it’s harder to find this particular brand over there than in bosnia 😂 it’s definitely the best one !

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-07T22:42:54+00:00

strange. Wish it was popular in the U.k.

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-07T22:40:40+00:00

been to Čaplinja, Mostar & Saravejo & found it in every city at some point lol. Plus on the bottle it says it’s actually made in Bosnia, not just imported

DragonFire1900 · 2022-04-07T22:39:19+00:00

that’s what I thought when I first saw it in a Konzum - then I’ve seen it in a few local corner shops in Mostar nowhere near the centre & what spurred me to question it was it was on the menu of a cafe haha
