Flights to NewYork

dfcelt

Anybody know of a decent website for flights to NYC.
4 adults going in July for 5nights, (Monday through to Sat) & I'm the one asked to find the best rates
Aer Lingus site is looking like 900euro :eek: each but surely theres far cheaper out there.
I'd really appreciate some help on this.

MrJoeSoap

What dates? I assume you are going from Dublin?

As far as I can see Delta do a return from the 3rd to 8th for US$639 each.

Try Expedia.com for some good prices.

Going on Monday 10th JoeSoap, thanks for the reply, I'll check that website out

MrJoeSoap

July 10th - 15th is €539 each (incl. taxes) on www.delta.com

Absolut

$2694 for four people from Dublin to JFK via Heathrow on the 10th of July to the 15th on American Airlines.

It's slightly cheaper if you go Dublin-Chicago-La Guardia, but probably not worth the stop-over hassle, and JFK is a little easier to get from than La Guardia if you're staying in Manhattan.

Thanks Absolut, got flights for 2,756 on Expedia.com. Stopover in shannon, on to JFK & direct flight back. 538 each at 1.28 exchange rate, not too bad I suppose

Absolut

That's a decent price, and the shannon stopover is a lot less hassle than the Heathrow one.

Just watch out for the exchange rate - you'll normally get a slightly worse rate from your credit card company than what you'll see on the like of www.xe.com

Are those dates set in stone? you may get a much better deal flying mid week

Did you book that on Expedia.com or .co.uk?
No problems with Irish Credit Card? I heard you could only use US or UK cards on the respective sites?

dfcelt

Your right Faltermyer, after filling out all details Iwent to pay & it wouldn't allow it. I rang their US no. & was told I had to book through expedia.co.uk. Ended up 20euro dearer each :rolleyes:
