If you prefer a legacy airline to low Norwegian Air flights to Europe, then flyers in California and Nevada may find buying a ticket to Portland, Oregon PDX or Seattle SEA Airport for a low cost ticket to Europe from those airports. Two tickets can be a lower fare alternative ticketing strategy for Europe from Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Francisco for travel next winter.
Many European cities priced at $800+ from LAX and SFO are priced in the $400s and $500s from these northwest USA cities. The cost of a round trip ticket from LAX to PDX or SEA is about $117 to $135; LAS Vegas LAS is about $137 to PDX or SEA and SFO to PDX or SEA is about $155 to $190 with several different airlines.
