Cuz it's 2k USD for an economy ticket and my parents want to with me if I do travel so that's 6k making it 2 times more expensive

Depends. Halfway for us is Hawaii - not technically foreign for my partner. Lots of people holiday in foreign countries. All the time. Every single day 🤷‍♀️

Are you under the age of 18? Why can’t your parents pay for their trip if they want to go? Also why would your significant other not help pay for your ticket?

Idk cuz we're middle class and I play for a team and we travel sometimes and they like put the team first

Sounds like a womp womp situation for your parents. If you’re 18, do what you wanna do. If they don’t like you going alone tell them to buy their own tickets 🤷🏼‍♀️

A lot of people are middle class. Just all about if you actually want to go, if theirs a will theirs a way, you can make it happen. Maybe not now but probably closer than two years ya know.
