Being a country that is friendly and full of culture Ireland is one of the best honeymoon destinations you could visit. Ireland has readily become more of a better value to travel to over the recent years and has an abundance of activities to do and always have breathtaking coastal views. Ireland offers many other landmarks, tours, parks, and museums that have free admittance.

How to Get the Best Deals

Sign up For Frequent Flyer Miles: If you are going on a long flight those miles add up, and many airlines offer this service free. Alternatively, if you fly private, consider getting a jet card and enjoy a whole host of benefits, including pre-arranged fares and access to a global fleet of aircraft to choose from.

When planning your honeymoon, you will have to take the following tips into consideration to get the best deals.

  1. The Right Season: Planning your honeymoon during Christmas, New Year’s, or another major holiday can have price consequences. Also, if you plan to have your honeymoon during the winter season and plan to go to the Caribbean, it might be a bit more expensive. The down seasons saves on cost.
  2. Do Your Research: If you are planning to fly out of the country for your honeymoon make sure you look at direct flights. Connecting flights can sometimes be a headache as well as effect travel dates depending on how often flight is offered. Look around and compare prices with travel agents, online travel sites, hotels, and airlines. Take into consideration all the extra costs you might incur from, hotels, meals, visas, travel insurance, and other transportation costs.
  3. Sign up For Frequent Flyer Miles: If you are going on a long flight those miles add up, and many airlines offer this service free.
  4. Ask about Deals and Promotions: Many hotels or resorts will give you a free upgrade of a room, promotions or give you a complimentary meal or champagne in honor of your honeymoon. So when you check in let them know you just got married.
