Hi, I'm new to this forum and just unearthed this discussion about travel between Madrid and Paris. I am very curious as to how Puggle found an airfare between San Diego and Madrid for $300. I am tempted to book my $650 from Seattle to Madrid via AA and United for travel March 28 - May 13. Any advice? Should I grab this or do fares really get down to $300?? My college daughter will be studying in Paris all spring and I thought this would be a nice way to visit and travel a bit with her. I need to book by tomorrow if I grab the $650 fare. Also, I can go via Lufthansa for about $30 more - is it worth the difference for the better rated airline? Thanks!
