    Clear your cookies or use an incognito browser window and check the price again, Ryanair stores your search info and will often put up the prices based on what you've searched for previously.

    Have you looked at flying over to see if that's any cheaper? :)

    Flights are £241 sterling with Ryanair + baggage + checking in online/credit card fee's too, so about €500 for one person. :(

    Was looking at Aer Lingus to Gatwick/Heathrow and getting a train, think it works out at the same price.

    You'll have a great time. Solo travellers attract other solo travellers, and couples!!

    SO jealous! :D

    Thanks so much for this, going to check it out now.

    Can get Aer Lingus to Gatwick for €106 incl baggage, not sure about train times/prices though.

    Off to do more searching :)

    Goodluck LaHaine :)

    @rustopher - Lots of reasons but in recent times it's because of other users. (bullying, threatening, etc.) Many users come back under different names/accounts. I was a daily poster on Boards and decided to leave due to similar reasons took a 6 month break and was back new name and happy out :)

    WOW really?? Think it helps not to be a daily user, i think its great for asking peoples opinions on different things etc. It can be addictive alright.
    I do read people argue over and back sometimes...funny! I wouldnt ever get that involved though.

    I know a poster was getting a lot of stick in a thread about having a very high post count ('you clearly need to get a life..' that sort of thing) and was mentioning closing their account and starting afresh. It is not a good thing if someone feels 'forced out'. :(


    Best of luck to LaHaine, have a ball!!! :) xxx
