From Barcelona, Spain, and traveling with a dog, what types of transportation modes are available, and would anyone kindly recommend one mode over the over, and explain why.
I love taking trains, but if a local European thinks its wiser to travel with the dog by plane or boat or bus, this is the issue.
I’ve had to go through all kinds of hoops to get the dog ready for Spain, which is why I may not have time to change plans and make a direct flight to Italy. Traveling will be tough for me especially with the dog. So I really could use some opinions. Is there a boat direct to Sicily is where I need to end the journey. I imagine I’d need a health certificate in Italian if I flew in, but is one needed if I take a boat … if there is a boat …or the train? Bus, etc. Thanks so much if you can help .

I can fly out of either Reagan National, Dulles or BWI airport. I have heard that stopping off in a city outside of Italy and then taking a smaller/budget plane to Sicily is cheaper than flying straight into Rome and then traveling to Siciliy from there.

I am going to be staying in Florence, Italy for ten weeks and will be traveling to various destinations on the weekends while I am there. What is the best/cheapest way to book vacation packages for different destinations (i.e. London, Dublin, Sicily, Paris, etc.) while I am there? I know that airline travel abroad is relatively inexpensive but I was wondering if there are websites like we have here in the US that allow you to book a whole package, and if so I’m looking to budget travel as much as possible (though no hostels). I have a budget of about 350 euros per weekend to travel to, stay, eat and see attractions so I am looking for budget conscious options. Thanks for the help!

You can drive but it takes several hours. There’s also train and bus. However, a plane ride is relatively cheap and the flight is about an hour depending on if you’re flying from Catania or Palermo.
