Actually fares are relatively cheap right now from the US to Europe if
you shop around. United has a cheap flight from Wash-Dulles to Brussels.
British Airways is running US to London flights during March for $199 to
$260 round trip (check out their website for details/restrictions) with
almost no advance purchase requirements (I think they want 3-day advance).
