Hello! I don’t know what to search this under but here goes if some people can give me guidance it will be appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

Me and my friends want to go to Europe August 2005. We want to plan a itinerary where we start either in Dublin and in Munich or vice versa. Which way would be the most cost effective? Of course what country we end at we want to fly back from there back to JFK NYC. We have 5 cities we want to visit Dublin, Ireland; London, England; Munich, Germany; Paris France; and the 5th place we don’t know if it should be Zurich, Switzerland, or Milan or Venice or Rome, Italy. We’re looking to go to the first 4 for sure, then the 5th city could be either of the 4. I would also like to know an airline which would allow airline "hopping" So we start at lets say Dublin stay there 3-4 days then go to london by flight and stay there 3-4 days WE WANT to TAKE THE CHUNNEL to PARIS and stay there 3-4 days then take a flight to either of the 4 cities and stay there 3-4 days, then go to Munich Germany the 3-4 days and fly back to JFK. We would like to live in hostels though since we are college students and it would be a great way to meet people and what not. If this isnt the proper forum for this can someone please move it to the right forum which I have no clue which it is.
