Airfare Suggestion
 
<BR>Anyone have any suggestions for cheap airfare (i.e. consolidators, etc.) to Ireland in April from Boston? Can't seem to find anything for less than $625. <BR> <BR>Thanks!

I find $451.60 BOS-LGW for Apr 4-13 <BR> <BR>check after the 10th how much to get from LON to Dublin on RyanAir. <BR> <BR>Consolidators, may indeed be a better bet. <BR> <BR>And btw... what's up with this new "Express Search" option on Travelocity - - touting a specific airline (never seemks to be the best buy) over all the others! May get a boycott from me soon!

Rex, check out a new airline search engine at www.itasoftware.com. They only do domestic at the moment, but it's vastly superior to expedia and travelocity. This is not an ad, I have no connection with ITA software. I just happened upon it, after reading an article in the Washington Post, and I can't help thinking, that this is the way fare searches OUGHT to be done. Thought some of you folks might be interested.

Joe have you checked with Aer Lingus ? They are doing special deals for 2 for the price of 1 at the moment from ireland to the States. Otherwise Delta or United.

Ditto the message above for the www.itasoftware.com site. (I have no connection either) It's a beta version, but I've had no problems with it. Does searches only; you can't purchase a ticket at the site, and international capability should be added soon. Very straightforward. No need to use Travelocity or Expedia or any of the others again.
