Keeping in mind it's a UK website helps sometimes.
Hey all. Barring the unforeseen, the fam is going to (finally) be going to Europe this year for a few weeks. I really don't travel enough to know the best sites for flights. There are so many anymore and I'd rather not waste my time with some of them that are sketchy. Recommendations to use/stay away from? Flying KC to Salzburg. TIA.
Good for you!!!Hey all. Barring the unforeseen, the fam is going to (finally) be going to Europe this year for a few weeks. I really don't travel enough to know the best sites for flights.

Thanks for the guidance. I've used Travelocity in the past with luck. Lately, they haven't seemed as reliable for some reason. I actually used a co-worker's travel agent last summer. She was able to find me a better rate than what I found, but it left me feeling that I didn't look in the right places.
I need to get everything planned to a T because, despite having the trip planned, I'll still have to be convincing my wife that it's a good idea until we are actually on the plane. It's like CMC trying to hold onto a verbal commit for a year.
Good for you!!!
We'll be across the pond in late May; doing a river cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Basil, then spending several days in Lucerne afterward. We'll wave.
For flights, I usually use Orbitz. Very user friendly.
Make sure all three of you are fully vaccinated and be prepared to do testing 48-72 hours prior to departure. and possibly during your trip if you cross national borders.Thanks for the guidance.

Yup. And we just booked another Viking for Feb/Mar 2023 that goes from Auckland around the southern coast of NZ, over to the southern coast of AUS, then up the Gold Coast, thru the Coral & Timor seas to Komodo & Bali. Really excited about that one - we were starting to plan it for our 25th anniversary but life, Covid, and major wildfires in Australia) got in the way. So, we'll be going a month or so after our 29th.Viking?
How is your Covid requirements research going? I think I have all the forms for France, but we can't go into Germany or Spain at this time due to US....
I've had a lot of fun making a wish trip, but what is bothering me is where to get the health pass and airfare pricing is horrible.
I will check Travelocity and Expedia. Have used both, but now I use them to find flights and then go to the specific airline company and book.
