    Dub - JFK, SEA - DUB next April/May - €486 without bags, €586 with bags.

    Thoughts on whether I will beat this by waiting until new year to book? (Current sale only runs to March).

    Personally I don't think you can beat that, that is about as cheap as it gets imho.

    No chance, that’s a great price.

    Thanks lads. It seemed grand, but wasn't thinking it was as amazing as you say. Perhaps when I've got NYC return for c.€400 , then the extra €180 for coming back from Seattle seemed "ok"...

    Booked!

    But the days of 400 for JFK with bags are prob gone, I would expect East Coast return to be 490/500 so an extra 80/90 for a popular west coast route seems a great deal to me.

    21 nights. 10 days at various ports, 11 at sea. Will need a liver replacement at the end of it.

    Very surprised too, saying that I wouldn’t be too annoyed, 586 is still a great deal.

    That sounds pretty amazing.

    as for the price drop, its a coin flip. You could have procrastinated and seen it for up 80 quid instead. Better to lock in a good price and be sorted than hold out in the hopes of beating it.

    That's your lesson in basing your travel plans off boards

    Its a mindset pal. You still got a great price and you've got a great holiday coming up. Enjoy the bargain and enjoy the holiday. Sounds amazing. Best of luck with the liver!
