Thank you so much for your reply. Does transavia have all the costly add ons and more importantly are they reliable & without a lot of hassle? After I posted I saw that if I left the next day I could fly on Air France for $88 or 108'with a prepaid bag & somewhat changeable ticket. I wanted to leave after 5 days but maybe it's worth it to stay a day and be on a normal carrier. And I've never flown air France. What do us think?

Is there an overnight train with good connections from Paris to Budapest or Vienna or Prague? What do u think of trains vs planes in Europe?

By the way if the airline leaves you stranded because the plane is grounded, does the European law reimburse you for your new expensive ticket on another carrier and cover your hotel if need be. Thanks!!!!
