MarkJust a note before the deal, booking any flight given the current situation is at your own risk. If you were to book a flight I’d recommend reading about the country you plan to fly to current situation and of course Ireland’s (i.e whether you’ll have to quarantine or PCR test etc.), using a credit card as you have greater protection, reading the cancellation conditions and in most cases booking directly with the airline.
Yesterday I did a New York On A Budget Guide and it was so popular it actually crashed the website! I usually post a deal a day but seeing as it’s Valentine’s Day here’s an extra one.
This deal is for a weekend trip from Dublin to New York in June with direct Aer Lingus flights and 4 nights in a 4* hotel for €607 per person (based on 2 people sharing). There is also an option to fly from Shannon for €630 pp!
New York City comprises 5 boroughs sitting where the Hudson River meets the Atlantic Ocean, with Manhattan being the most famous borough. There is an endless list of things to see and do in Manhattan alone such as Times Square, Central Park, Empire State Building and the Rockefeller Centre to name a select few. I would also recommend going to Brooklyn and seeing the iconic Brooklyn Bridge or take the ferry to Staten Island and to get up close to the Statue of Liberty.
