At this late stage, I doubt they'll get much cheaper.

Try out delta.com and continental.com for flights to New York to see if they're any cheaper.

This site is fairly good at finding bargins http://matrix.itasoftware.com/cvg/dispatch/login

Althought I doubt you'll beat delta prices. Even €477 with EI ain't too bad.

American holidays do packges (I've never used them) http://www.americanholidays.com/content/amhols/index.html

I flew recently with Delta to Atlanta from Dublin and I thought they were very good... Good service, food quality was good.. Nice staff etc. If they are cheaper than aer lingus, I would go with them to be honest.

I just booked a return flight to chicago for about €470 after tax with United Airlines, might be worth checking them out.

Try booking each leg "one way" that way you get quoted the USA - IRL fare in Dollars . This works on the Aer Lingus site not sure about the others.

Also check out british airways site... I was looking there yesterday and they had some very competitive rates.... Only thing is that you have to go via London...
