Is flying really the only (or at least cheaptest) way to do this nowadays? DEPRESSING

4/7/2007 4:04:27 PM

you could always swim

4/7/2007 4:05:04 PM

Well, I don't like google directions

4/7/2007 4:05:15 PM

ummm, ship?

jesus jazon, what kind of question is this???? use some logic here.

either you can go above the water, on on the water, or under the water.

so, ummm, like, how old are you?

4/7/2007 4:07:07 PM

WELL THEN, ARE YOU GOING TO TELL ME WHERE I CAN CHARTER A FUCKING BOAT OR WHAT

CAUSE LAST I CHECKED

THERE AIN'T A PRICEWATCH FOR FUCKING DRAMAMINE AND PIRATES

4/7/2007 4:08:57 PM

where do you want to go?

and why can't you afford a $400 ticket to europe?

i don't know where to charter/book a trans-atlantic ship, but google is your friend!

Queen Mary 2 does it, doesn't she?

there are cruise ships, and then there are ocean liners. all these cruises going to bahamas, etc, are cruise ships.

Queen Mary 2 is an ocean liner, and crosses oceans.

here you go:

eh, i just don't want to spend 700-1k for round trip

Although I figured any other method would be far more expensive

4/7/2007 4:22:39 PM

i have seen flights advertised in newspapers and magazines from US to europe for like 200 and 300 dollars. are those for real or no?

4/7/2007 4:25:50 PM

everytime i go to Germany to visit my brother I pay !$400 round trip on Lufthansa because I don't ever fly anything else.

4/7/2007 4:36:09 PM

well dammit, maybe i've just been looking at the wrong cities to fly into

i remember my father flew into belgium for ~400-500 once, but meh

take a what they call "re-PO cruise. range anywhere from 600-and up. You get on over here and it gets you over there, if you need anymore info PM me.

4/7/2007 4:43:11 PM

thanks

looks like i need to join the damn navy to travel

4/7/2007 5:27:53 PM

just drive your car up to alaska and over the ice pack into siberia, then travel through russia until you hit eastern europe

4/7/2007 5:47:23 PM

we flew round trip to paris for 400 in 2003.

if you dont mind driving to DC, you could go round trip to london for 190, or paris for 230 back then.

go to bestfares.com, there's TONS of flights for under 400 bucks round trip to various parts of europe.

Go ahead and singlehand it if you don't want to fly.

4/7/2007 6:43:33 PM

I recommend the gyrocopter

4/7/2007 6:51:33 PM

Zeppelin.

4/7/2007 6:59:17 PM

passenger freighter is another alternative

ups sells rides in their huge cargo planes ~100 bux with hit or miss availability. Check the hub at the airport for more info.

4/8/2007 5:05:10 AM

Start digging!

4/8/2007 6:21:21 AM

I was looking at 26+ day trips on http://www.cunard.co.uk/Planner/Default.asp?plan_active=CruiseFinder
just for shits, and on an itinerary I found:

Quote :

" 16 Sat Cross International Dateline - Lost Day"

now that would be really really weird...

also, the longest cruise is 108 nights and is basically a trip around the world visiting ports of call in tons of countries. I can't imagine being on a ship that long, you would either be bored out of your mind or make lots of lifelong friends...
