If You're Thinking of Going to Europe This Winter, Take a Look at Aer Lingus' to Getting There

The economic crisis in Ireland is among the worst in Europe, and has decimated business travel to and from Dublin. The result of that are airfares to or via Dublin that are among the best offered by any trans-Atlantic carrier. Go to the website of Aer Lingus ( www.aerlingus.com ) and you'll discover that you can fly round-trip between New York and Dublin between November 6 and March 31 for as little as $608, including all government taxes and fees, on mid-week flights purchased online. You can fly to Paris or Rome, via Dublin, for about $125 more. Going anywhere in Europe this winter, you might always want to check the prices offered by the flag carrier of Ireland.

 A single caution: the above fares are supposed to be booked prior to September 28, but I have no doubt they'll be extended beyond that deadline.
