Air Europa Website in English anywhere?
 
Can only find site in Spanish - I know they partner with Continental for flights from US - but a while ago I found a website directly for Air Europa in English that had cheaper fares - now I can't find the site.(looking for someway to get fare less than $1000 Boston to Madrid in summer). Thanks.

Have you checked fares using consolidator sites such as OneTravel.com and aggregator sites such as mobissimo.com and kayak.com?

Hi,

Air Europa codeshares the flight Newark - Madrid with Continental. I just went to their website and was quoted 410 Euros( including taxes), which is approx, $550 for a flight leaaving Newark 7/4 and returning 7/15( random summer dates). Not bad considering that same flight in Continental website is quoted for $910.
WEbsite is www.aireuropa.com and it's only in spanish. If you give me your dates I'll be happy to check for you.
Even if you don't speak spanish is not that difficult . "Origen" is departure, "destino" is destination, "fecha salida" is departure date, "fecha regreso" is return date. Then click on "seguir" button( continue). The first amount that it quotes ( 336 euros) is before taxes. The only way it would give me the amount with taxes is by setting up a dummy reservation and continuing with the reservation process . Then it updates the amount to include taxes.

Steve,

I went to the URL that you provided but , at least for me, the "FRom" field keeps saying "loading" but it never does. When I switch to Spanish, the FRom and To fields load with no problem. Do you have same problem? Thanks

CL - Sorry - you're right :( I didn't get as far as checking ...

Steve,
THanks! At least I know it's not my computer acting up!

I got my great fare from Seattle to Madrid via the TravelCuts.ca site. It had dates available that Travelocity at first appeared to have, but didn't have when you actually clicked on the dates.

I also saw the same fare on Orbitz.com, but couldn't purchase it due to not having a US credit card. I think TravelCuts.ca is only for Canadian residents, so try Orbitz and TravelCuts.com and other consolidator sites.

Note that the Spanish Air Europa site only lists New York as the one American departure city.

I'd suggest setting up an Orbitz fare watcher for various summer dates to zero in on that elusive cheap fare to Madrid.
