I hear a lot “travel is so expensive!” And while yes, if you are just booking the first thing you see or not scheduling your trip according to dates you can travel cheaper, it can be. But here’s the thing, there are tons of locations and flights out there that you can get at relatively low prices. When we first started traveling abroad after we got married, Nick and I would just search Orbitz not really knowing anything about airfare or how to get deals. We always figured on planning about $1,000 per ticket to fly anywhere abroad from the US West Coast. But in all actuality, we rarely pay that anymore and many times we’re getting both tickets for not much more than that. There are lots of ways to save on travel, but good airfare is one of the biggest. So here today, I’ve found you 3 affordable Fall trips abroad (from the US) and I’m telling you what they cost! If you’re looking for a great fall getaway with a lower price tag, I’ve got you covered!
All 3 trips below are to cities I have personally been to and on airlines I have personally flown, I wouldn’t recommend them if they weren’t great deals and great locations!
Los Angeles – Copenhagen | $555/person roundtrip
18 Nov – 25 Nov (though there are lots of other dates that get you this low of a fare as well)
Book directly through Norwegian Air’s website. (Tip for flying Norwegian from LA, they fly Dreamliners on this route, so choose the last row of seats on the plane, they have a ton of extra space!)
Always wanted to travel to Scandinavia? Here you go. This incredible roundtrip fare from LAX will drop you in one of Scandinavia’s most beautiful cities: Copenhagen. I can attest to this city being beautiful in the Fall and as you wander around the colorful buildings and Scandinavian architecture, you’ll see why!
New York – Dublin | $541.94/person roundtrip
25 Oct – 2 Nov on Delta
Book on Delta’s website or Orbitz (Tip for Delta: they are partners with a lot of airlines, so make sure you’re getting your miles even if aren’t loyal to them directly!)
Dublin is gorgeous in the Autumn! Falling leaves, rich stews for meals and everyone wrapped up in scarves and boots. What could be better? If you’re based on the East Coast, this is a fantastic deal to Dublin, or then even to fly into Ireland and then connect to other places in the UK or mainland Europe.
Dallas – London | $714.69/person roundtrip
17 Nov – 22 Nov on Delta
Book on Delta’s website or Orbitz (Tip for Delta: they are partners with a lot of airlines, so make sure you’re getting your miles even if aren’t loyal to them directly!)
Fancy a trip to beautiful London? Maybe a stroll through Hyde Park as the leaves are falling or spending days just popping from pub to pub? We honeymooned in London in November and I can say, though while chilly, it’s one of my favorite times of year there. London is also a great hub to jump off to other spots in Europe. Want to hop over the channel? I suggest looking at cheap fares on EasyJet’s website!
