late summer airline ticket deal, NY to Ireland $150+tax each way

[glenn1]

Just bought some tickets for my parents to visit Ireland. Laguardia to Shannon on U.S. Airways (connection in Philadelphia) for $150 + tax each way. I got tickets for 9-21/9-29 dates but I checked and 9/4-9/11 and some other dates are available, you'll just have to play around with the dates until you find a pair that works.

Couple that with a land-only package deal like this one (5 days/4 nights with 1 rental car and 1 night castle stay for $499) and you have the makings of a pretty darn nice vacation 🙂

Where did you find the deal?

Didn't find it anywhere, did a lot of legwork and shopping around on various airline's websites with different airports and dates, and wound up finding this deal.

I have to say, out of all the countries i've been lucky enough to visit, the people in Ireland were by FAR the friendliest bunch i ever met. Combined with stunning landscapes (check out the Wicklow mountains) and some excellent sightseeing, Ireland is definately one of my favorite places to visit.
