Cheap Flights to New York JFK

chump

Heard this morning that Delta are now flying Dublin-Shannon-JFK
Just checked a few prices...
seem very reasonable...
1. example
Dublin, Ireland (DUB) to New York-Kennedy, NY (JFK) on Wed, 23 Aug 2006
New York-Kennedy, NY (JFK) to Dublin, Ireland (DUB) on Wed, 30 Aug 2006
Price, inclu. taxes: 330euro

With Aerlingus:
527euro, inlcuding taxes...

Now the taxes for the Delta flight seem very cheap so some more investigation needs to be done to confirm low price, but looking good.

Just checked Delta T&C's closer,
SURCHARGES ORIG NYC 40.00 USD MISC/OTHER PER DIRECTION
ORIG IRELAND
35.00 EUR MISC/OTHER PER DIRECTION
TRANSATLANTIC SECTOR
FURTHER RESTR APPLY SEE TEXT RULE
Would like to follow through and see the ACTUAL price one would pay... any volunteer to do this?

I went all the way through this, as far as actually paying for the ticket, and it still says

Fare U.S. Tax(es) Base Fare Taxes/Fees Subtotal
€288.00 (EUR) €22.98 (EUR) €310.98 (EUR) €19.02 (EUR) €330.00 (EUR) 1 €330.00 (EUR)

When do they tack on the extra charges?

€330 is a very very very good price!!! If that was the case then i think il be takin a trip over in september!!!! Like u said about aerlingus, the cheapest I could find was around 500 which put me of!!

i know some one who booked with us airways from shannon to chicago mid june for 3 weeks aerlingus were 650 but he got 345 it is via philadelphia but as the shannon chicago flight is via dublin anyway it works out the same

later in the summer continental.com prices will come back down, outside of summer season i was regularly finding one way flights either way for about $180. ual.com have deals you should look up as well, you might have to fly to london, but the connecting flight would be pennies with ryanair! but that guy's right €330 is bout as good as it gets!:)

Took that route with United a couple of times. bit tedious hanging around Heathrow for 6-7 hrs, but you will probably save €80-90. If you don't mind the scenic route, KLM via Amsterdam is another to look at.

$10 each way fuel surcharge not bad comparing to Aer Lingus's €35 each way charge

BessBoy

but who wants to stop in shannon.

Cough Cough

Yep, booked these flights, €329 return total price direct to JFK from Dublin.

No extra charges are payable, after much head scratching, the surcharges appear to be for changing flights.

I'm looking forward to my trip!

chump

Are you serious?

They aren't gonna nab you on the day or anything?

I honestly just can't believe they're that price!
