BA/AA launched a new fare sale from Dublin last week and it appears that AA is matching. Of course the fare is not much use with United’s new earnings regime, nor is it as attractive as the super Danish deal that United refunded. But, if you are look for PQM’s or miles toward Million Miler…
There is little choice of lounge at Terminal 1 in Dublin, and so most airlines and memberships use the DAA Executive Lounge. You can see a list of which airlines provides access. There is a choice of food most of the day.
The Conrad Dublin offered a EUR69 upgrade to a one bedroomed suite – too good a chance to miss. This review provides details of the room, their breakfast for HHonors members and room service. A property I recommend when in Dublin.

I had a recent stay at the Hilton Dublin Airport, whilst paying an extraordinarily good rate (EUR 66), in the current sale, the changes to HHonors have shown up now the stay has posted. Crediting to my Virgin account, before the changes I would have earned 1,000 miles by double dipping the fixed amount per…
Some months ago there was a mistake fare from Mahe in the Seychelles to Dublin, in Business Class on a mixture of Air Seychelles and Etihad. The trick was arranging a flight to get me there, but luckily United’s partner Ethiopian came through with a routing from Dublin, via Frankfurt and Addis Ababa with Mileage…
