Oh Ryanair, stop tempting us with 1€ ($1.47) fares! Ryanair is advertising 1 euro flights until midnight on September 17, 2009 for many European routes. For example, I found a Porto (Portugal) to Milan (Italy) flight for October 15, 2009. However, they add 5 euros at checkout for payment handling, unfortunately, they won’t let you “not pay” so anyway you go about it, the flight will be 6 euros — or $8.81. Still, if you have a European vacation planned, it might be worth checking out to “jump” over to another country, cheaper than the train!

Extras breakdown:

• 1 checked bag: 10 euros extra (carry-on, people!)
• 1st on flight: 3 euros extra
