One option for travel is a direct flight from the United States to Ireland. Many airlines make this route a few times a day including Continental and Delta Airlines. Keep in mind this can be more expensive than taking connecting flights.

Another option is to take a flight to other European cities. This is the best option for anyone interested in seeing any other part of Europe. Once you are ready to fly to Ireland there are many budget airlines you can take over.

Many people who fly to Ireland choose to land at London's Heathrow and take either a connecting flight, train or bus to Ireland. Taking a connecting flight can often save you money on your ticket price.

Budget airlines have made travel across European countries not only inexpensive, but popular. For as little as $40 round trip you can fly to most major cities using lines like EasyJet or Ryanair. Both fly from a variety of countries, including England, to Dublin and Cork.

Try to book your airfare to Ireland in off-season or the shoulder season to save hundreds of dollars. Also you can save money by flying into larger cities.
