Special offers from Air France are very helpful
I’ve made no secret of the fact that I like Air France because their prices are generally good, and their food tends to be much better than any other airline. So I’ve been scanning their “special offers” and I am seeing some really good deals at the moment: Air France special offers
They have some really cheap flights to the USA right now, and the exchange rate still makes the pound really valuable, so once you get there you can live almost like a king for what you’d spend on a “budget” trip to anywhere in the euro zone. But not everyone has enough time to fly all the way across the Atlantic, so their weekend breaks are good deals as well.
You can actually have a cheap weekend if you combine one of these low fares with a stay in one of the Paris hostels or Amsterdam hostels, and if you stay in places that have private rooms you’ll still have your privacy at a lower price. You can also get a free breakfast at most of those hostels, and make yourself other meals and snacks using the community kitchen as well. It’s probably cheaper than staying home, and you’ll be able to feel superior to your homebody friends as well.
