One way cheap flights in Europe - please help!

I am trying to find the cheapest way to do a flight from Brussels to Vienna, then another flight from Vienna to London. I cannot find any cheap flights - Apparently Brussels is a hard place to fly in and out of. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I should look? I'm specifically looking for one way flights, but if anyone knows of round trip fares that aren't bad I'm certainly open to it.

Thank you!

Look at www.whichbudget.com .
There might not be any flights for exactly what you want.
You can fly to Bratislava to London on EasyJet or SkyEurope, and Bratislava is apparently about 1 hour from Vienna. You could also fly from other Austrian cities to London.

For flying from Brussels to Vienna, I don't see any approximate route offhand. Perhaps you can improvise something.

AirBerlin (www.airberlin.com) fly nonstop from Vienna to London Stansted (STN). They are reliable and cheap. I'm stumped on Brussels - Vienna, too. If all else fails, you could always use AirBerlin again and connect through London STN - e.g., book one way Brussels to London, then round trip London - Vienna - London.

Egordon,
Austrian Airlines flies BRU - VIE as well as VIE - LHR. You should be able to do it for about $200 and book it all together, it would be considered an open jaw ticket. I'm not sure if you can book and price an open jaw through their website, if not, just give them a call...they have a USA 800# Good luck.

SN Brussels Airlines (www.flysn.com) flies between Brussels and Vienna. They also fly Vienna to London, so maybe an open jaw would work. Usually not bad prices, and nice planes.

Hi eg,

http://www.europebyair.com/eba/English_us/default.jsp

has $99 flights.

They will fly you direct from Brussels to Vienna for $99.

However, Vienna to London would be by way of Brussels, so it will cost $198.

egordon132,

Actually, both Brussels and Vienna have quite good low-fare service. To summarize what others have posted and provide a bit of additional info:

1) Brussels to Vienna:
The airline you want is SN Brussels airlines.
www.flysn.com

Their lowest one way fare on the route is about EUR 100 all in (EUR 70 base fare). Alternatively, if you live outside of Europe, you can book it at USD 99 plus taxes (so about the same price) through:
www.europebyair.com
Click on "FlightPass"

2)Vienna to London:
Take Fly Niki, Niki Lauda's new carrier which is also bookable through Air Berlin's website. They fly nonstop from Vienna to London Stansted.
www.flyniki.com
www.airberlin.com

Cheapest one way fares are in the EUR 50-60 range all in.

Hope this helps,
Andre

egordon,
Good luck to you on the quest for flights. Keep in mind if only for a few dollars more you can fly nonstop and into an airport of choice (e.g., Heathrow if connecting to a transatlantic) its worth it
