~$110 fares to Europe?

It may just happen, reports the Torygraph. This could mean a whole new generation of Americans who visit Europe more than once in a lifetime. Could low airfares be the end of ignorant Euro-bashing? Perhaps. But then again, the people burning Citroens in the streets aren't the kind of people who would take advantage of a cheap trip to Europe anyway on moral grounds. Their loss.

Connected to this is the new 7E7 Dreamliner, a new plane from Boeing that is supposed to be far more fuel-efficient than its predecessors. Since fuel is one of the major marginal expenses incurred by an airline and a rising one to boot, an efficient jet could mean long-haul discounters springing up everywhere. Fantastic!
