Booking Flights for Sabbaticals

Traveling to Europe with a family of 4 is not cheap under any circumstances, but the last week of August is particularly “tres cher”. And when you’re trying to do something as unusual as not coming back within a couple of weeks, it apparently gets even more complicated.

Denise saved us again with a link to a great source for one-way flights that actually cost half the price of a round-trip ticket – instead of twice the price like you are charged when you call the airline directly. You need to fax over an authorization to buy a one-way ticket (odd?) but for the price I’ll happily dust off the old fax machine and dig out a pen.
