    Hi Everyone,
    Was meant to book flight from dublin to lanzarote two weeks ago (were hoping to go at easter) but didnt get to do it so went onto aer lingus to book the flights today & OMG serious price hike.
    So anyhow i just luked up the prices of going to lanzarote from belfast & there way cheaper so i was thinking of booking the flight going over from belfast airport & the flights coming back home to dublin airport (if we come home to belfast airport were going to have to end up booking a hotel for the night dont really want that)
    Has anyone ever flown out of belfast airport & back to dublin with aer lingus should it still all be straghtforward enough or would we be bringing a load of hassle onto ourselves.

    I have never flown out out of Belfast but in general, I do not see why there should be any extra hassle. Aer Lingus do not sell return tickets at a discount anyway. So you lose nothing by booking BFS-ACE and ACE-DUB separately.

    If you get the bus to belfast you will arrive in at the Europa bus centre. Bus leaves very frequently to the international airport from the Europa bus centre.

    Price is £7 single so not too bad. If you get the train you might be able to get off at the Europa train station. If not you'll land in to Central station and its about a 15 minute walk to the Europa to get the bus...Or a taxi would cost less than a fiver.

    The Enterprise goes to Belfast Central. It is only ever redirected to Europa if the bit of track leading to Central is closed. But there are frequent buses between Belfast Central and the city center. If you have a train ticket, the buses are free to use as well.
