If continents were dogs, Europe would win Best in Show. The landmass is a seemingly perfect combination of pristine beaches, charming villages, historic cities andstunning nature. There's so much to see that planning a trip can be overwhelming... mostly because it's overwhelmingly expensive.

But good news: Now is arguably one of the best times to visit Europe we've seen in years.

And it's not just because the Euro is at its lowest level in over a decade. Flight prices are on the predicted decline, as well. Airfare experts, including Expedia and theAirlines Reporting Corporation, foresee that given the falling price of fuel and the rise of budget airlines, airfare will get cheaper in 2015. What's more, a recent report from these experts found that the cheapest time to buy international flights is about 171 days before a trip.
