A recent fare promotion to Cork presents a solid travel opportunity. Prices may fluctuate based on selected routes.
The Matrix Airfare Search by ITA Software indicates that the standard pricing for this route is about $698 for Regular Economy. However, users looking for lower rates can find fares starting at $498 in Basic Economy when booking with American Airlines.
The $698 fare offered by American, British Airways, Finnair, and Iberia comes with one checked bag allowance along with a standard-sized carry-on bag.
Conversely, the Basic Economy fare of $498 has several restrictions:
Several key limitations include:
- NO advance seat selection allowed.
- NO checked baggage included; fees apply: $75 for the first checked bag and $100 for the second.
- NO changes permitted post-purchase.
- NO cancellation option; should travel plans change after the 24-hour risk-free window, the Basic Economy fare cannot be redeemed for future travel.
It’s important to note that many online travel agencies may not accurately label these fares as Basic Economy when booked through American, British Airways, Finnair, or Iberia.
