With one of the fastest growing European economies, Ireland has become a favourite among high-tech companies, however it is still just as appealing to tourists who travel each year for the buzzing towns and cities or the quieter country life.

Many major international airlines offer direct flights to Ireland, whilst other flights to Ireland travel via the UK. Ferry services between Ireland and the UK operate between Dublin and Holyhead in Wales; Rosslare and Fishguard and Pembroke, also in Wales; Belfast and Liverpool, and Belfast and Stranraer. Services also link Cork with St Malo, Cherbourg and Le Havre in France.

Own a holiday home outside Ireland? Have you discovered how expensive it can be to get to from Ireland?

The cost of getting to that holiday home in the main seasons throughout the year can prove to be quite costly for a holiday home owner living in Ireland. Figures researched in May 2007 have found that although there are a choice of airlines - (Aer lingus and Ryanair being the major players in the Republic and easyJet from Belfast) it is not too easy picking up a bargain. Aer Lingus and Ryanair fly to Malaga in southern Spain twice a day, however flight costs over Easter 2007 to this destination were costing €250 return, and the Aer Lingus price for October 2007 is currently €345.

There are a lot of Irish who own holiday homes in this part of Spain and there are not many alternatives if you want direct flights. You can of course fly into Britain on Ryanair for example to London Stanstead or Luton and take a cut price flight onto Spain. The problem here is that you might have to wait around at the British airport for a few hours and that you flight from Ireland might be delayed and you miss your connecting flight.

If you flying to the south of France, Nice can prove very expensive at popular times. Flights can cost around €300 return. They are also costing more from the UK in May when the Cannes film festival and Monaco Grand Prix are on, but you can fly from Dublin to Marseille and Nice by Ryanair and Nice by Aer Lingus.

Tips on how to get a good deal

Ideally travel mid week, not the weekend
Register with airlines on line for latest deals
Keep a look out for any new airlines entering the market
Consider a charter flight. You can search the web for operators
Look at the alternatives - flight from Ireland to a "stop" in the UK, Switzerland, France etc and change flights. (easyJet is developing a good route network out of Paris and Geneva now)
Look out for advertised last minute bookings.
Work out your travel arrangements several months in advance.
