oktoberfest 2015 for a few yrs now , my buddies and I have joked that when we turn 50 we are going to go to the oktoberfest beer festival - - -
it is upon us ....
I was there years ago ... but we are seriously looking into flights , travel times etc ...
Anyone have any recommendations ? I thought the flight prices would dip alittle about this time ... I think I can get round trip for around 750 - 800 ....
of course I have been in Germany before ... and want to visit a few other sites ... but anything you guys recommend would luv to hear ... Colonel Angus may be smelly. colonel angus may be a little rough . but deep down ... Colonel angus is very sweet. | |

Ehhhm..... no! Octoberfest actually starts on September 19 and ends on October 4, so going there in October might be a tad too late. - Octoberfest and I are polar opposites.

Try one of the smaller airports nearby and take a train in.
And unless it just HAS to be THE Oktoberfest at the Wiesn, I would consider one of the many smaller events around Bavaria. Cheaper, shorter lines... Either way, have fun!

When I travel to Europe I've always tried to land in London or Amsterdam to save on ticket prices. Once you're in you then switch to a regional carrier where flights are ridiculously cheap...
Travel by train, it's cheap and convenient. If you rent a car get a diesel, fuel is cheaper, better range and the modern diesels are sweet!
