Travelers looking for an affordable option to Dublin can take advantage of some attractive fare offers for late summer travel. The prices can fluctuate slightly based on specific routes.
United Airlines, in conjunction with partner airlines Air Canada, Austrian Airlines, Lufthansa, and Swiss Air, has established a standard economy fare priced at $674, which includes one checked bag and a regular-sized carry-on.
Additionally, these airlines are offering a cheaper fare at $474, categorized under Basic Economy or Economy Light. It’s important to note that these Basic Economy fares come with several restrictions:
There are no options for pre-assigning seats.
Checked bags are not included, with fees of $75 for the first bag and $100 for the second bag applicable each way.
Changes to the itinerary are not permitted, and cancellations will render the fare worthless should a traveler decide to cancel after the initial 24-hour risk-free period. Many online travel agencies may not properly categorize these fares as Basic Economy when booking with United and its partners.
