Woman flies to Milan for 14 hours because it's cheaper than London trip

The £50 flight was half the price of a train to the capital.

Dagmara decided to make the most of her day A thrifty woman paid £50 for return flights to Milan, spending 14 hours in Italy for less than a day out in London. Dagmara Kedzierska made the savvy trip due to increasingly expensive rail tickets in the UK. It would have cost the 30-year-old over £100 alone to get a return train from her home in Manchester to the capital. So instead, the business owner flew to Milan Bergamo for half the price.

Despite its upmarket image, the city is affordable . Travel blogger Nele van Hout wrote: ‘It is totally doable to go to Milan on a budget and still have a fantastic time… ‘There are a lot of things to do in Milan for free.
