Getting There From Britain
Choosing how to travel to Ireland depends heavily on the amounts of time and money available for your trip. Unless you live near a ferry port the cheaper options of train or coach travel can involve a lengthy and sometimes arduous journey. Flying is the quicker alternative and there are usually cheap tickets available to most of the Republic's airports and, increasingly, to Northern Ireland. However, at the peak times, such as the days preceding St. Patrick's Day and Easter, throughout July and August and in the week before Christmas, many of the low-cost fares may not apply or the few cheap seats may have been booked long in advance. It's worth looking out for deals advertised in one of the weekly newspapers catering for the Irish in Britain, such as the Irish Post or Irish World .
