Flights to Europe Anonymous
In your opinion, is it worth saving the money to flight-hop your way into Europe (by way of Canada, England, EU mainland, etc), or better just to take a direct flight? I'm trying to minimize my costs getting to Rome next fall, but I've never even been on a plane before, much less transferred between them.

Take a direct flight. Also, Air Canada is the worst airline I've ever been on. Don't ever fly with them.

Find a discount travel agent (I don't know the US ones) and ask about deals. Sometimes it's better to go direct, sometimes not. The earlier you book the better.

What you can also do is get a standby flight, which is cheap but you have to wait at the airport for an empty seat.
