When looking to fly to between major European cities, always look for an airport that is close, e.g. Beauvais instead of Charles de Gaulle, Pisa instead of Florence. Budget airlines use these and the savings are considerable. By watching online, I was able just a couple of weeks ago, to get a flight from Edinburgh - Pisa return for only $28 CAD.
