Germanwings' 5th Birthday Means Cheap Tickets

European LCC Germanwings always tries to be innovative--after all, they were the first to try to win LCC customer loyalty with their attempt at an air miles scheme, although they probably missed the point that people who use budget airlines do so because they want to pay the cheapest price, not cash in miles for free magazine subscriptions.

This week, rather than go all out to copy RyanAir's free tickets, Germanwings is offering a deal that might turn out to be better value. Since the airline's celebrating 5 years in the skies, tickets on 50,000 flights are on sale for just €5 (that's less than $7). Unlike RyanAir's "free" tickets, these €5 tickets already include all taxes and charges. Flights are on sale until midnight Sunday, and you have to travel between November 2007 and February 2008.
