    Boston –
    PRO = Small, easy to get around, historical, good shopping; direct flight from Dublin and Shannon.
    CON = Weather could be s**t in Feb\March. It will be cold and there could be show, sleet and ice storms.

    Washington –
    PRO= Great sights to visit, small, easy to get around, historical
    CON = Weather as Boston, direct flights?

    Chicago –
    PRO = Nice city, good shopping, direct flight
    CON – very spread out, weather worse than Boston, Direct flight but 2hrs longer than Boston.

    Dallas – never been

    Florida -
    PRO – Warm, theme parks, beach, golf etc.
    CON – No direct flights. And might be pricey that time of year as it is a big US holiday destination.

    San Fran –
    PRO – great city full stop, nice weather
    CON – No direct flight, and it’s a long flight.

    LA –PRO – None, well maybe the Hollywood sign.
    CON – S**t hole, long flight.

    You might also try Montréal Canada,
    PRO – lovely city, very European, good shopping, good value for Euro v CAN$.
    CON – No direct flight, weather worse than Boston (but they have underground streets and shopping centers

    Ive been to Orlando, tampa and maimi and tbh i didnt think they were great, far to touristy. That tainted my view of america and hence im looking to go again and see another side to it

    Don't go near Dallas

    it's a pure urban jungle

    small bit of JFK stuff there, but city, is smoggy, and crap

    Been to 19cities in USA and Chicago/Boston would be pick of Air Finglas Flights
