Why European Budget Airlines Don’t Really Offer Connecting Flights

In the United States, flying on a budget airline typically comes with a 10-15% reduction in fare price, something that European ultra-low-cost carriers would simply laugh at. Flying on easyJet, Ryanair, or Wizz Air will often come at a third or even less of the price of flying with a full-service network carrier like British Airways, Air France, or Lufthansa. This is 100% by design.
