Multi trip flights

    I'm trying to book multi trip flights. Dublin-budapest-berlin-dublin

    Alot of the flight operating websites seem to be very bad at giving this option. It's either one way or return

    It's a bit of a joke to be honest .

    A travel agent should be able to book that.

    It's not really a joke. You are trying to book something that very few people do.

    Skyscanner has the option.

    Skyscanner has the option.

    Kayak too.

    Very few airlines, if any besides possibly Ryanair would fly all these routes, and Ryanair don't allow connecting flights

    Ryanair do them all.

    Just use https://www.google.com/flights and change the trip to 'multi-city'


    Multiple options for the Budapest-Berlin route.

    AerLingus and most of the big airlines have Multicity as an option, as does Skyscanner.

    The issue you might be having going with any one particular airline is that if they aren't partnered with another carrier that does the legs you need, then they can't quote for it. An aggregator (like google flights, skyscanner) will have better luck.

    For example, using Aer Lingus Multicity, you can enter DUB - BUD, but it runs into trouble with the Budapest - Berlin leg where the only options are either EasyJet or Wizz air (at a quick glance), neither of whom are Aer Lingus partners.

    What you could do in this instance is get a single ticket for DUB-BUD TXL-DUB, and buy the BUD-Berlin ticket separately.

    It's not a joke - you just didn't go about it the right way.

    Try Google flights

    Try Google flights

    Well if the customer can’t use the site, it’s a bad design. Or a joke if a design

    I love Skyscanner, been using it for years. Specially for multi city and I did it for the States. They find the cheapest flights for you as well. So it’s a bonus.

    Which site(s) are you using? As others have said there are quite a few non-airline-specific sites that have a multi city option.
