Hey awardtrail friends! Been dreaming of schnitzel and waltzes? Well, Vienna might be closer than you think thanks to some surprisingly cheap flights we're seeing. The Flight Deal spotted fares as low as $505! Now, the catch is that this price is usually for Basic Economy. If you're unfamiliar, Basic Economy typically means you'll have to pay extra for things like choosing your seat or bringing a full-size carry-on bag (check the airline's specific rules!). Still, if you're a minimalist packer or just looking for the absolute cheapest way to get to Austria, this could be a fantastic option. To find these deals, The Flight Deal recommends using Matrix Airfare Search by ITA Software to find the dates and then booking on the airline's website. Happy travels!
