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.
This deal is for a trip from Dublin, Shannon or Donegal to New York over St Patrick’s Day with Aer Lingus flights and 4 nights in a 3* hotel from €739 pp!
If you’re looking for a few ideas of things to do in New York without loosening the purse strings take a look at the New York on a Budget Guide.
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 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 get up close to the Statue of Liberty.
