..."Getting to Oktoberfest
With recent price trends suggesting fall could be a less expensive time to travel than summer — especially if you book now — we found some decent options for those looking to pack up and make the trip to Germany this autumn to take part in the return of Oktoberfest. These include options for travelers hoping to pay the cash price for their ticket, or redeem saved-up miles.
Checking Google Flights options out of the New York area during the two weeks Oktoberfest is happening in late September and early October, I found a great fare on SAS — the Scandinavian carrier and Star Alliance member — for $532. The itinerary, departing out of Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), involves a quick stop in Oslo, Norway, en route to Munich International Airport (MUC).
On the return flight, you’ll have to make a longer stop in Copenhagen. It’s not terribly convenient; you get in just before 8 p.m. and have to depart for Newark in the middle of the following day. However, it could be enough time to grab some dinner and get a quick feel for the city on your way home to the U.S."
