FLIGHT TIPS
Many of you will be travelling via London, with several options to Dublin. BA, Aerlingus, Air France, BMI, Lufthansa and our old friends Ryanair all do direct flights.
From Glasgow and Edinburgh the best options are Aerlingus, BA and Ryanair.
Stateside there are also great offers with Aerlingus, Delta, United Airlines and Continental direct from New York into Dublin.
And finally for those of you crazy (I mean rich) enough to be travelling from Bermuda the connection from the BA flight to Gatwick is pretty good with Aerlingus.(BA flight lands at 6.45am into south terminal Aerlingus flight to Dublin depart at 8.45am north terminal)
