After extensive research before going on our trip to europe and seeing 5 big cities I found the Eurorail was going to kill us as far as money went. I just want to make sure those who don't mind scheduling a bit more and sitting on the train a bit less know that they should do tons of looking around for cheap airfair. For our intraeurope travel a rail pass was about $800. Our airline tickets from Dublin to London to Amsterdam to Prague to Rome back to Dublin cost us aproximately $520. It saved us quite a bit.

We used bookingbuddy.com and clicked on every site to check out dates and for the best rates. We also used Ryanair which had some amazing deals as well. Good budget airlines in europe are:
ryanair
skyeurope
easyjet

check all their individual sites as well. Obviously if you want to come and go from these countries as you please and not on a time frame the eurorail would be beneficial but we got shocking looks on peoples faces at hostels when we tell them what we paid and how much time we saved. So I just thought i would pass it along.
