By Air
Discount airlines have made flying to other European cities affordable if you catch the right dates by booking ahead or a sale. Be forewarned that these airlines have very low baggage allowances and may apply hefty charges for over-weight or excess baggage. Paying online for excess baggage is much less expensive.
