More airline news

I was very happy to learn this morning that easyJet, the discount airline, has announced 5 new awesome destinations from Basel. Beginning in late June they will fly to Alicante, Barcelona, Palma de Malloraca, Rome, and Nice. Actually, I don't know anything about Alicante (actually I've never even heard of it), but the other places all sound great to me. Barcelona and Rome are both next on our list of weekend trips that we need to plan, but I can't imagine going to either place in the hot summer. Perhaps we'll have to wait for the fall so we can take advantage of the new bargain fares!
