We are planning our first trip to Europe. We plan on staying for a month. Not including air fare and hotels. How much spending money should we be expecting to spend. (We aren't big on bringing back a lot of knick-knacks.. We want to spend more on activities) Ball park park ranges are fine.. We just want to make sure we aren't underestimating!!

Me and a friend are wanting to make a trip to Europe next summer but have no idea where to even start on planning this. Neither of us have ever been out of the country, what do we need to get, and what do we need to do, and how do we get the best possible rates for the whole thing?

Kady asked:


My boyfriend and I are students. We have heard from many people over the last few semesters that have been taking trips to foreign countries (such as Europe, where we would like to go) on a discounted rate due to being in college. We would really like to take a trip ourselves but we have NO IDEA where to start. We would like a package deal, but whatever is cheaper. We are also interested in making our own way and staying at hostels...so that would make things a little cheaper, sounds funner anyways.
Help...

All-Time Reel Guy asked:


We were told you can only book 331 days ahead at most, and we wanted to use our frequent flier air miles for a European vacation next year. Delta told us we should make the entire round-trip booking 331 days in advance of our return date.

We would like to fly Delta, and depart end-May '08 for France (or close to that), returning on July 23, 2008 to Cincinnati from either Stockholm or Copenhagen. 331 days from July 23, 2008 is next Monday August 27.

I checked with Delta yesterday and they said they have no spots available for frequent fliers (50,000 miles awards) from Cincinnati to France from mid-May through Mid-June of next year. What can I do to increase our chances of being able to use our air miles for these round-trip flights - anything? Fly to another destination within Europe? Check with Delta's partners? (how does THAT work?) Go on a waiting list?

Thanks for your thoughts!

falkenad asked:


So I am a resident of Canada, and this summer I am taking a three week trip to Ireland, Bavaria, and the Netherlands. While I am in Europe, I want to keep in touch with friends and family back in Canada. Maybe via Facebook Mobile, not sure if that works where I am going. I plan on buying a cheap, unlocked phone from some online vendor. But if I want a good sim card for texting back to Canada to use whilst in Europe, what is my best option?

Jake Sully asked:


I have about $ 2,000 put aside for my trip to Europe, which I am planning to take in the fall.

Should I buy a new laptop now (which will cost me around 1,000 bucks probably), or should I keep my money and use it for the trip to Europe? I was using my laptop every day, so it's kinda important, but the trip to Europe is important too. Right now, I can only use my sister's computer!

jackie asked:


I'm planning to go to Europe next spring for 3 months. I'm wondering what it would roughly cost for the trip. I woudn't eat at restaurants,I'd try to get cheap hostels,I wouldn't spend on tours or anything like that. Is it possible to make it on 6500.00 including a rail pass and airline tickets?

anastasia p asked:


My question is, would it be safe to video graph a trip to Europe? Or should I be in fear of being mugged? Maybe video graph in the nicer areas? I am a little skidish because this will be my first time over seas. Thanks.
