Increased airline competition in Germany and the rest of Europe has made travel by air a more popular option for travel to, from, or within Europe. In some cases traveling by air can even be cheaper than going by rail in Europe. Even if the fare is higher, the time savings offered by the air option may pay off in the long run. Here are some useful links and tips for traveling by air.
