Cheap flights to Ireland

Our convenient Customer Service Portal has information about changing or cancelling your flight due to COVID-19. Before you reserve a seat, it’s a good idea to read the terms and conditions of your chosen airline too.

By using our smart “No change fee” filter, that’s how. Simply enter your origin, destination and travel dates, click “Search,” then check the box underneath the “Flexible change policies” subheading (look to the left of your screen). Expedia makes it a cinch to find cheap, flexible airfares to Ireland.

The COVID-19 pandemic may have changed the way we travel, but it hasn’t stopped our appetite for exploring. Here are some tips on how to cope with the new challenges of travelling:

• Before booking anything, find out if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your destination and origin. Get up-to-date information by reviewing official government websites.
• Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to lower your mask temporarily for identification purposes.
• To reduce the possibility of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA employee.
• TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will have to be removed from your bag and submitted for screening.
• Place any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during screening.
• If you’re bringing food through the security checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
