Beginning in January, Prices for Air-and-Land Packages to Famous
European Cities Will Plunge (In Some Cases, to New Lows)
by Arthur Frommer
Just four months from now, starting in January of 2002, the price of a
short European vacation will plunge to levels rarely experienced in
transatlantic travel. Blame it on the economic slowdown, the strong
dollar, the remorseless increase in the number of ocean-crossing
aircraft–whatever. Seven particular packages are especially
compelling, and will sell out fast. If you’re to enjoy the bonanza,
you might consider booking this far ahead.
(7) $799 to Dubrovnik (including most meals). In 2002, there’s no need
to balk at the Balkans. A gorgeous medieval walled city (and UNESCO
world heritage site) set on one of Southern Europe’s loveliest
coastlines, Dubrovnik offers excellent food, mild winter weather,
superb sightseeing, and impressive off-season bargains. Throughout
January, February, and March, you can experience seven nights at the
beachside Hotel Kompas, including daily breakfast and dinner, and
transatlantic flight, for just $799 out of New York. Tour operator
Travel Time (800/354-8728) charges just $100 more for many other
departure cities, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, and
Chicago. And finally, you can add another week to your Croatian stay
for just $335.
