Visit a port wine tasting in Porto, Portugal, or sample some pastries at the Cafe Central in Vienna.
Traveling to cities like Porto and Vienna would typically be very expensive.
The cheapest round-trip flights, however, start at $453, and airlines are now offering discounted travel to places throughout Europe.
Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, Miami, and Minneapolis are the main U.S. airports from which you may fly to Europe.
But there are several possibilities available in Europe.
Cheap flights are available beyond Porto and Vienna, among them to Copenhagen, Stockholm, Berlin, Munich, Dublin, and Helsinki, to name a few.
These offers are valid for travel from February through May and from October through December.
These prices should only be in effect for a few days.

In conclusion
These deals with Europe are not always simple to find.
It's usually more expensive to go to Europe in the summer, so it's absolutely worth purchasing these tickets while they're still affordable.
Airlines have been lowering prices to Europe since the beginning of the year, but these cheap prices won't persist for long because flights will inevitably fill up.
