Skyscanner itself is just a price comparitor - you buy the flights off the sites it links to. Sometimes this is the airline, more often its a travel agent.

Most of them are absolutely fine but I'd stay away from eDreams anyway. I would always check the direct price on the airline's site also if its a travel agent showing as cheapest.

You can get them a lot cheaper with a bit of pre-planning OP. Aer Lingus sale is usually about 6 months in advance and you'll get a return for the 550-600 mark or thereabouts.

I flew to Chicago a few years back. We paid €600 each but that was in April. Flew St.Louis via Chicago too and that cost around the same in July.

Both times through aerlingus.

Is 850 euro expensive for return flights to Chicago ?
