I will be studying abroad in Ireland for a semester in Cork. Throughout my time in Ireland, I hope to travel around other countries in Europe. I was wondering if anyone could help me with information on the most economical type of traveling Europe?

Buses, hostels, and university dining halls. Museum free days. Bring your student ID.

And for getting to the continent check out the burgeoning number of European discount airlines. www.whichbudget.com

Hi M,

If you repost with Ireland in the title, you should get more responses.

You can check out the website of Cork airport for possible destinations.

While Ryanair has (much) more connections from Dublin, you can still get to many interesting destinations from Cork with Aer Lingus, which also has low prices when you are a bit flexible.

Check flights throught London. Usually flights from Cork to London have quite reasonable rates, and then there are a lot of options from London to most of European cities.If you prebook flights in advance, you may get some very cheap rates.I happened to flight with EasyJet from London to Athens,only on 30 euros some years ago!
