Everywhere there are budget airlines. The "normal" prices are more expensive to fly, but I never buy those tickets. Ryan Air and EasyJet over here both regularly offer tickets where the base price is 6 Euros. Once you add the taxes and fees for baggage, web check in, paying with a credit card, etc. The price of a round trip ticket is around 40 or 50 Euros for those flights. Trains for the same distance are rarely less than 100 Euros. I choose which events to attend more on the question "can I get a cheap flight?" than I do question based on the event itself. Though a really good event might tempt me to go up to 100 Euros in travel costs.
