Multistop Trip to the States

Stinkah

Hi all,

I'm looking to organise a trip to the states, with multiple stops for my father in law.

He's never been to New Orleans and would love to go. So we're going to sort it for him as a family.

The idea was maybe to fly into New York, stay a couple of days, Down to New Orleans (I know, long flight), core days here and then a few days over in Florida flying back from Orlando or the likes.

Would I be best to organise this with Trailfinders or American Holidays and leave the hassle or could I get it a lot cheaper and to my liking by doing it online?

It's handy enough to book flights and accommodation for one location on line but I've not tried the multistop trip before.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Personally, I'd do it myself. A multi-stop trip is not different from booking one trip - you're just think of it as booking a few mini trips. You can book a flight from Dublin to NY, returning from Orlando easily enough (very easy on aerlingus.com using the "multi-city" option. You can do similar with Delta and Continental - however, Aer Lingus has some direct flights from Orlando back to Dublin on certain days of the week)

If you're going to have him fly NY - New Orleans, try JetBlue. They're a good airline and it's not such a long flight with decent seats, free snacks and live satellite TV to watch in each seat. They're head and shoulders over most of the other domestic US airlines

I have done one or two multi stop trips to the US. You might aswell do it yourself. I have always flown continential as I found them cheap and the website allows you to put in multiple destinations and it will arrange flights for you.

Just my two cents.
