Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel my flight booking to Southeast Ireland due to COVID-19?
Our Customer Service Portal is your one-stop shop for most travel questions, including about flight changes related to COVID-19. For more peace of mind, we suggest reading through the terms and conditions of your preferred airline before booking your tickets.
What's the best way to find cheap flights to Southeast Ireland that have flexible change policies?
By using our nifty "No change fee" filter, that's how. Simply enter your travel dates, click "Search," then mark the checkbox underneath the "Flexible change policies" heading (look to the left of your screen). Expedia makes it easy to find affordable, flexible tickets to Southeast Ireland.
What are some of the general tips for travellers to Southeast Ireland during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 has triggered big changes to the way we travel. If you're planning a trip to Southeast Ireland, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges:
  • Before you book a flight, check if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by reviewing government websites.
  • When you go through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Those who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the building.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Rather, position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for inspection.
  • One liquid hand sanitizer container is now allowed in your carry-on luggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag for scanning.
  • Place any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
