Spin the Globe Cheap Destination of the Week: Calcutta, India
I am very proud to introduce a new feature on Europe Cheap Ticket Links. On each Thursday from now until the end of time, I will spin the globe on my desk, stop it at a random location and track down the cheapest flight information around for that destination.
The inaugural Spin the Globe Cheap Destination of the Week is none other than Calcutta, India (these days called Kolkata). Home to 14 million people, Calcutta is known as “Cultural Capital of India”, “The City of Processions”, and the “City of Joy”. Calcutta has a rich history tracing back to the days of the British Tea Company and it has produced some of India’s leading thinkers and leaders. This bustling city is both a challenge and a delight for travelers. As more than one travel writer has written, you haven’t traveled until you have been to India. And as I like to say, if you are going to India you might as well poke around Calcutta.
Currently, you can fly from London to Calcutta for the not too unreasonable price of £337. For pricing information on flights to Calcutta from other locations, go ahead and give the Booking Wiz a try.
