What I cannot explain to my satisfaction is why airfare here in Europe is so much cheaper than back in the US. For example, I excluded LCCs because of their nickle-and-dime add-on fees and compared legacies, non-stop, coach, round trip, daytime departures of roughly the same distance. MEM-DEN United 872 nm, €616; MAD-DUB Iberia 902 nm, €133.

That is a ridiculous difference for essentially the same flight. Fortunately I'm taking the less expensive flight next month.
