Hello all...I will be travelling to Ireland from the US in May 2004 and have a couple of questions.
As I am on a frequent flier ticket, I had to book into London Gatwick (as Ireland wasn't available the dates I wanted, as I am trying to catch the Fleadh Nua festival in Ennis, Clare). I am looking for an airline to get me from London Gatwick to Dublin. I arrive in LGW on May 23, 2004 at 9:00 and leave LGW on June 7, 2004 at 12:10. I have looked at RyanAir, but am looking for anyone with an opinion as to whether they are a good airline or with other suggestions. As I am flying in from the US, I assume I'll have to get my checked bags and go through customs before re-checking in with the next airline to Ireland.
My next question is whether it is advisable to try and fly from Dublin to LGW to US on the same day, or if I should go into London on Sunday and to the US on Monday. How busy is customs, or how does it work flying from Ireland to UK and UK to US?
Help! Thank you for any help, as this is my first international trip!
