|
|
Two things I�m wondering about..
1) Whats the cheapest way to get from London to Dublin?
2) What are some good international online websites for flights out of Dublin? (or is it better to fly out of London)?
My basic plans are to go from Spain to France to England to Ireland.. and then fly from Dublin to Miami and back (to meet a friend in Miami).. and then leave Dublin back to mainland Europe.. potentially Prague.
Also.. would London be significantly cheaper than Dublin for international flights.. or price-wise is it close enough to not make that big of a deal? |

London to Dublin try Ryan Air. Pretty cheap and maybe only 30 quid one way. |

Ryan Air is good, but the price can sometimes fluctuate~ depenidng on when you book it, etc. |

The ads for ryanair are usually on the front page of the daily papers. Try their online sites, especially www.independent.ie.
Also ebookers.com.
It depends where you are flying to whether Dublin/London would be cheaper. London has more direct flights so I would travel from there. |

Not too sure about getting to Dublin TB as I'm from Belfast.
Why not try arriving in Belfast from London (Gatwick) on a 25 pounds Easyjet flight and getting the train down to Dublin. You'll see a lot of countryside that way.
You can add Northern Ireland to your list of countries visited!! |

I flew to Rome from Stanstead with Ryan air 17 months ago. 32 quid. I booked it 2 days before on the internet. It cost me more to get to the airport because I left the middle of the night trip until I had to get a cab. 40 to the airport. 32 to Rome. |

Ryan Air sounds good for London to Dublin.. also just curious.. is there some kind of ferry boat from some location in the UK to Dublin? How much would that cost? Just curious.. I wouldn�t mind going that way either..
As far as where I�d fly out of from either Dublin/London.. actually the big one would be to MIAMI. I�ll check ebookers.com.. any other big websites I should be checking out? |

DAMN!!
Ryan Air is cheap!!! I just booked a ticket from Barcelona to Paris for �1.99.. 2 euros is unbelievable!! With credit card fee and tax it turned out to be 16 euros!! Unbelievable!!
Actually I�m tempted to just put in an entire itenerary of places throughout July hitting all the big cities that Ryan Air hits.. unbelievable!!
Still looking for the great deal of basically anywhere in Europe (at this point with the Ryan Air deals) to Miami and back. I�ll keep looking for that one.
Thanks for the Ryan Air tip.. Unfrickenbelievable!! 2 euros. |

Ryan Air is the best airline for getting to/from Ireland.
While you are there Tiber Beer, I suggest you head down south to Cork
Amazing place
My Aunty lives there
private message me if you'd like her address etc., she'd be more than happy to put you up |

Cork is tempting.. heard many good things about Cork as well as Galway. Later, I was thinking of inquiring how many ESL Posters may somehow or another be in Europe this Summer.. particularly July.. as I�m traveling around!  |

Yeah, I might be able to coordinate being in the Evil North before Prague!! I�m going to keep that in serious consideration!! Wouldn�t mind Belfast. And to drink beer with an Irishman in Ireland from Korea.. ahh.. mighty mighty tempting!! |
