This is only one example of how cheep it is to fly international. I have flown on Brittish Airways and enjoyed it. KLM is another great choice when flying into Amsterdam.

Here I use Northwest and connect to KLM (a partner)
But that is because I am not in a big city. I have ot hop a commuter to get to a major airport.

My airport is growing up, but you still in almost all cases of going overseas have to get to a larger airport first.

My next trip to Sweden is only $330 (aprox) round trip..
I encourage all of my stay at home american counterparts to go explore the world.. if you do not have a passport, sure it is about $100.. but it is good for 10 years. Go get yours now!
It takes up to 90 days to get one back from the state dept right now, the last person I knew that ordered one , had a wait of about 70 days.

Soon you will need a passport to travel to any forighn country, so even if you are not ready to go over the pond, a trip to Mexico, or Canada, will require one, so just do it.

There comes more than just a littel satisfaction when you are first called a "world traveler" so please do it.. you will be thrilled by your adventure.

Plus if you take photos, your blog will be more interesting too.

Untill later, this is DeRex wishing you a happy and healty , good night.
