Are you talking about FlyEurope the discounter? If so, that is an agency, not an airline. But as an agency it seems to have a very good reputation and simply markets discounted seats on the behalf of any number of carriers.

I canot findthe basis for the assertins made by molker, regarding a new Vienna Stock Echange listing of a new airline - - and it seems to me this is rife for name confusion.

www.flyeurope.com is the website name for a travel agency, in Edmonton (AB), also doing business as Europa Travel. In theory, they will prepare a quote for the route FCO-BUD within two hours. But they are no airline.

www.skyeurope.com is the website for the airline of the same name, which gnerally operates outy of Bratislava, but they are adding routes frequently; and they show service starting at 39 euro oneway (arbitrary dates in May).

www.1800flyeurope.com is the website for a service of the same name, which (I believe) operates as an affiiate of AutoEurope (Portland, Maine). They offer discounted transatlantic airfares, but not service bewtween Rome and Budapest. Thry are an agency, not an airline.

Finally, www.europebyair.com is a conglomertive marketing consortium of several dozen airlines; they offer many oneway route with in Europe for $99 USD. Many between Budapest and Italy, but FCO-BUD.

Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what your dad has found.

Best wishes,

Rex
