London is one of the coolest cities in Europe – and I don’t just mean the weather in winter. There’s loads to do and see, centuries of history to get immersed in, and a vibrant modern city as well. Plus, it’s an ideal first foreign destination for Americans because the English kind of speak the same language. So if you’re in the market for a visit to England’s capital city, you could do much worse than this excellent four-night trip that includes round-trip airfare for just $549.

Here’s what you’ll get for your money:

• Round-trip airfare from New York City (other departure cities available for an extra fee)
• Four nights hotel accommodation in London
• All hotel taxes and surcharges
• Airline fuel surcharges

In order to get this deal, you’ll need to travel between now and December 16, 2008 or January 16-February 24, 2009, and the lowest fares are available on Weds-Thurs departure dates. Other dates and days of the week are available for a slightly higher price. Be sure to read all about this package before you book.
