In the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, Norwegian Air has launched a sale with fares from North America to Ireland starting at just $99 one-way.
Flights can be booked from March 30 to June 23 — prime time to check out the Irish countryside at its greenest. Passengers looking to visit Ireland at a low price can fly from either Stewart International Airport (SWF) outside of New York City, T.F. Green International Airport (PVD) in Providence, RI, and Hamilton International Airport (YHM) outside of Toronto, Canada, to Ireland’s three major airports: Dublin (DUB), Shannon (SNN) and Cork (ORK).
If you find yourself disembarking in Shannon or Cork — you don’t have to rush to Dublin to have a good time. Head to Cork City to check out the famous medieval Blarney Castle, or perhaps check out the sea cliffs of the Dingle Peninsula, which is rumored to have the best shellfish in the entire country.
All fares are for one-way travel. The sale starts today and ends on St. Patrick’s Day. And since Norwegian has been showing some signs of financial turmoil recently, make sure to book these flights and accommodations with a credit card that offers extensive trip protection.
