Very reasonable prices and fraternised by locals, as opposed to tourists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallaght24 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I notice your all flying to Belfast are the flights to Dublin expensive or is it just the currency exchange issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be loaded to fly to where the game is, airlines pump the prices up to ludicrous levels to cash in. Always fly to a nearby city or the country next door and get the train in.

deecie Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Not really, my flight to Dublin was £29.99 and my flight out was €9.99. Hardly expensive when it costs £20 to get a taxi to the airport in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham of Montrose Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 You have to be loaded to fly to where the game is, airlines pump the prices up to ludicrous levels to cash in. Always fly to a nearby city or the country next door and get the train in. Or be ready to book as soon as the flights become available. I got flights from Inverness to Dublin for £89, Friday to Sunday on the morning they became available. The same flights are now £339. I got Aberdeen-Gatwick-Zagreb and return for £140 last year.
