WW: Boston to FRA ($159 - one way)
Hello all,
I've been trying to find a flight to Europe on the cheap and skyscanner keeps coming up with one way flights to Cologne for anywhere from $100-$121 but when I get past the month view and select a specific day with that price, it apparently no longer exists.
What I do know is the skyscanner uses historical data from the past 15 days so at some point the flight was actually at that price. What I have noticed though, is that this price keeps fluctuating by a dollar or two every few days so I know it has been at that price recently. I'm wondering if anyone has any information on where this flight may have came from so I could potentially watch this airline and book it the minute it comes up again. Try it yourself: Go to skyscanner, Boston to anywhere for the month of July, and Cologne will be one of the cheapest to come up, I think at $121 at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated! Or if anyone has any info on flights to Europe in July for $150 or less! That's what I'm really looking for! Not too picky on where in Europe
Cheers!
Curtis

Try Eurowings and WOWAir, both low cost carriers who operate flights from Boston to Europe.
Eurowings starts flying to Boston on the 1st of June.

Yeah, WOWAir isn't bad but nothing for under $150 outside of Iceland. Definitely the best budget airline but no crazy deals. Eurowings had flights going to Boston for 145 euro but you can't select Boston as a departure airport so I would only take it on the way back.

So it seems like the prices may be coming from the return flight of Boston back to Cologne via Eurowings. Eurowings only allows roundtrip flights booked from Cologne or one way flights from Cologne to Boston. Anyone know of a workaround? Here's the link: https://www.eurowings.com/en/booking...OS/2016-7.html

I really doubt you are going to find a flight $150, especially in July and August.
You can also try Norwegian Airlines.

1) Since its birth, it seems WOW's sweet spot has been the low sides of shoulder seasons.
2) Without looking, I don't remember how far Condor will get you out of PVD.
