minute to call anywhere in Europe! Cheap rates for countries around the
world.

airfares, inexpensive plane tickets, cheap rates for car rentals, and
inexpensive air travel links are here. The sites below are where I find
the most deals for study abroaders
and exchange students. They are the cheap airfares which can often be
found on these travel web sites.
Definitely comparison shop!
Different sites have different prices for airfare at different times of the year
and during special promotions. In short,
no one site is ever your best bet
for finding the best travel deal.
Try a few and find the one with the best priced airfare for your study
abroad/exchange country.
