Did you know that you can fly to cities in Europe and speed date on a 737-700?! Yes, it is possible. Sky Europe came up with a unique way of entertaining their customers with their Sky Date option. For around $200 (GBP 99) one can participate in one of Sky Europe's Sky Date flight. That means a round-trip flight from 2 countries in Europe (i.e. Brussels-Vienna, Lisbon-Vienna, etc.), speed date while on board, over-night hotel accommodations in a 4-star hotel, a guided city tour, transportation between the airport and the hotel, airport taxes and booking fee are all included in the fee.
If you're interested in meeting new friends, discovering a city in Europe, or would like to experience speed dating in a 737-700 just for kicks, then visit Sky Europe's Reservation to book a seat.
Here are the available Sky Dates for the month of November.
Before reserving a seat, Sky Date has strictly enforced an age limit. Participants should be between 25-40 with a margin of 2 years. And take note of the following guidelines.
* Do not ask other participants for their contact data (family name, address, phone number, e-mail...)
* Do not ask the other person directly to meet again
* The dress code is town attire or casual smart
* Come with your brightest smile and look forward to a great trip!

So how does speed dating work without exchanging contact info? Sounds like they're just asking for people to break the rules!

I have used Orbitz, hotwire, Expedia and Travelocity, all have their pro's and con's.
I spotted a site called Anyfares.com, find air tickets so cheap that my savings were about 35% cheaper than Orbitz, hotwire, Expedia and Travelocity. Flights internationally such as Europe in particular that are great and South American, China and middle East countries, they have excellent rates. Domestic though there are some what competitive where I used either Hotwire or the airlines direct from their web sites.
What I really like about Anyfares.com is they sell tickets on US dollars in foreign countries and all their tickets are e-tickets so if you are in France and need a fight to St.Petersburg Russia or London or Frankfurt, they sell everything in US dollars and you have your tickets emailed in 10 minutes so you can just travel just like that. Orbitz, Expedia and Travelocity, they sell their tickets if you are out of the US, they will charged you the currency in that country if you want to fly from there to somewhere else. So if I was in France for example and I want to fly to London, Frankfurt or anywhere, they will charge me in Euros or Pound Notes (it is like charging you double when the US dollar is so weak) when if you are an American and want to save, you can't save because Orbitz, Expedia, Travelocity will charged the currency if you are outside the United States but with Anyfares.com, they don't. Euros, Swiss Marks, British Pounds, Russian Rubles and etc, they currencies are high to the US dollar and if you are an American, you are stuck if you have to meet those currencies if you have only US dollars.
So consider if you have a money budget and you can't afford the high currencies, try http://www.anyfares.com
