Euro is down against the dollar might be a good time to head to Europe

A Euro is back under $1.30 again, much nicer than the $1.60 of last summer. Equally nice are the likely continued deals to be had on trans-Atlantic airfares, and more great deals on hotels and tours once you get to Europe. Low costs, a low exchange rate, and probably reduced visitor numbers in total all combine to make for the 2009 season to be the best for quite a few years. If you're thinking 'Should I/shouldn't I', you might want to give yourselves the benefit of the doubt and head to Europe this year.
