Re: Tuesday Open Thread (none / 1)

I just looked at some ticket prices - yowza, it is more than I expeced, but then controlling for my crap currency it looks about right.

Austria -> Madrid was coming in at $900. Think I'll just fly...

Re: Tuesday Open Thread (4.00 / 2)

The whole real point of the Eurail passes is that they end up being cheaper than long range ticket.

Don't see them as paying for travelling every day for a month, but more as a way not to have to bother with setting up the travel too much in advance, and a few free nights when you don't have to check in at the youth hostel.
