Direct or one stop?

Cheapest months to fly from Ireland
- Good value: January, late November and early December, and most of May and September.
- More expensive: Irish mid-term breaks, Easter, Christmas and the summer school holidays.
Tips to pay less
- Pick the cheapest day of the week using a flexible date search. With few flights per week, the price difference between days can be large.
- Pack light. Paying for a checked bag both ways can double the cost of a low-cost fare.
- Book three to five months ahead for holidays and one to three months ahead for quiet months.
- Check in online to avoid airport check-in fees on some low-cost airlines.
