Too good to be true? 2 tickets anywhere in the world for $299?
I'm new here, although I've been lurking for a long time. Excited to finally be joining you with this my first post!
My husband and I are planning a second honeymoon in September/October. As of now, we're planning on starting in Paris (5 nights), flying to Venice (4 nights), and then taking the train to Florence (3 nights). I've been searching for cheap airfare from SLC to Paris and happened upon this website:
http://www.mysticalvacations.biz/
Has anyone done anything like this? Does this sound too good to be true? I usually think if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is, but...well, what do you all think?
Alternatively, I also just found airfare (plus taxes and fees) flying in and out of Paris for $500 or open jaw flying out of Milan for $679. Which would you recommend?
TIA for your help!

There is an old(and wise) saying....."If something seems too good to be true, it probably is"
I checked their site.
1. The vouchers are only good through the travel company.
2. You MUST get your hotel reservations from them. At what price?
3. There is an additional $30 fee per ticket.
4. They send you the info via postal mail..allow upt to 8 weeks.
5. You mail your request to them at least 60 days in advance
3. The "money back guarantee" is good for only 72 hours. Since they can take up to 8 weeks to mail the vouchers to you, I wouldn't count on using the guarantee.
Similar programs have found that the dates people want to use their vouchers are never avaiable.

Their website also states:
"You must pay any tax, ticketing fees, surcharges, etc."
Assuming that means taxes for the plane tickets, that would be an extra $100 you have to pay each ticket (on top of the $30 fee).
