Why the whole trip and not just the flight? A cheap flight is a terrible predictor of a cheap trip. From New York in May, Reykjavik has the cheapest airfare of a typical shortlist at about $836 — but the trip runs near $5,600, almost seven times the fare. Hanoi has the most expensive flight at roughly $2,450 and a trip around $3,800. Pricing airfare alone points you at the wrong places.
