Student airfares

Discount airfares Finals week is next week and I am miles beyond it already.  This summer my school of music jazz combo and I have booked a bunch of dates at festivals all across Europe.  We have been playing together wince we were all freshman and now we have gotten to a level where we feel like it is time to take it out on the road.  We all have a year of school left and want to make this our summer of experience.  After the next year none of us know where we will be so this may be the last chance we get for quite a while to take a full tour.  I have spent the last week studying solid and now it's time for us to tie up all of the loose ends of the tour like hotel reservations and rounding up some cheap international airfare.  Since we are really just side acts at various jazz festivals and a hand full of solo shows, we don't expect to make much more money than what we spend.  Luckily for all of us we can use student airfares which give us a guarantee of some cheap airfare.  Unlike the rest of the trip this is one thing that really needs to be sorted out and not changed.  If I can save as much money finding discount airfares as possible that would be great since international airfares are all so far beyond all of our budgets right now.  W all hope that when we get there we can play some shows and get some more invites to play around the set dates.  In between our set shows we have a few big breaks where it would be nice to have pickup shows handed to us.  All I have to really worry about right now are the two sign posts of the date we go and the date we come back.  Getting those as discount flights would allow us a little more room to have fun and not bust our butts quite as much while we're enjoying the world.  I just hope all of my final go well and I don't have anything hanging over my head personally before the fall semester even begins.
