If you want the absolute cheapest way to fly to Europe (and don’t mind loads of restrictions) then WOW is probably your best bet.
They’re recently lowered their prices to $69 OW to London and Paris from September to December, 2017 (and $99 OW fares Amsterdam and to Reykjavik, Iceland) from SFO (and that includes all taxes and fees!)
But… there’s lots of fine print.
- The $69 price there is only valid if you buy a return flight home which is more expensive – the cheapest return flight we’ve seen from Paris is $249.99 – so you’re looking at a bare minimum of $318.99 round trip with cities like London having return fares starting at $369.99
- Fare is “WOW Basic” and includes only one small “personal item” that must fit under the seat in front of you – if you want to bring a traditional carry-on, get a seat reservation in advance, get any onboard entertainment or refreshments (even water) you’ll have to pay more. I
- All flights stop in Reykjavik (but you can add a stopover if you like)
