North American travelers looking for bargain transatlantic fares will have lots more options this summer, as European-based low-fare lines expand their reach. Three lines have announced aggressive moves:

Emirates has announced it will reduce service between Dubai and almost half its destinations in the U.S. Flights to Boston, Seattle, and Los Angeles will be reduced from two per day to one, and daily flights to Orlando and Ft. Lauderdale will be reduced to five per week each. The total number of weekly flights cut comes to 25.

For at least the second time this summer, Amtrak is offering a rare flash sale for fares on Northeast Regional train travel for as low as $19. Sample one-way fares range from $19 between Richmond and Washington, to $49 from New Haven to Washington.

Fly roundtrip within the continental U.S. for as few as 13,000 Delta miles in coach.

Most travelers adhere to a list unspoken rules and courtesies aboard commercial aircraft. Don’t kick the seat in front of you. Don’t bring a tuna fish sandwich aboard. Don’t elbow your seat mate off the armrest.
