Welcome to GFE, backpackzac. And happy (soon) birthday. A few more details are required to help advise you on your trip: - What time of year are you planning to travel?
- Have you considered the type of accommodation you'd like? Hostels, hotels, etc?
- Are you looking at rail travel or flying between each city? Consider both types depending on the final order of cities visited. Eg London to Paris via Eurostar train will be good if you book more than a month ahead you should be able to get a good ticket price. AMS to BER I'd look at flying with Transavia as the train journey is long/overnight.
Prague has an international airport, so you just need to check airlines which fly to and from DFW to see if there are direct flights. To start you off, check websites for airlines like British Airways, American Airlines or Czech Airlines. Happy planning.

Hey, Im going to be turning 18 by the summer and am also planning on going backpacking. I had a hard time convincing my parents to let me go on the trip, but it helps if you have a well planned itinerary, which you seem to have. Also it might help if you rent a cell phone while in europe. I know my parents will feel more comfortable with me going knowing that they can reach me if they need to. Good luck!
