We are actually looking to go to Dublin later in the year... But these prices are still about 1/2 of the standard airfare from what I was able to find for this time of year.... So still a good deal... (I think..)

If its that the case good for you! For the dates i wanted the price was the same
This deal is good up to the end of May. And to counter it, Swiss are offering Dublin as one of their "last minute" deals this week - return, including baggage (and a snack) for CHF 189. Works on various days in May.
My trip home for the first weekend (Whit) in June is going to cost me about 500 with Aer Lingus.
Or should I say, my desired trip would have cost me...
I may have to have a close look. Dublin is one of my top favourite cities. And Aer Lingus my favourite airline. Went to the USA four times, first via Aer Lingus, second time via KLM, third time Aer Lingus, 4th time Swissair. Aer Lingus is (was) the best !
Be aware that Aer Lingus adds a lot of little fees in the end, even after the price said "includes all fees & taxes" there were still more fees. I believe you even have to pay for an advance seat assignment if you wanted one. Anyway, you may be fine with that, but just so you know.
I had a great time in Dublin and Northern Ireland.
Ryanair / Aer lingus, No difference. By the time you have finished paying extra for using a credit card, luggage, airport tax etc. etc. you'll be regretting it.
Happy Paddy's day to all.

We took Aer Lingus to Dublin a year ago. Total and utter rip-of - the tickets ended up costing massively more, there was no service on the plane (even had to pay for water), 2-hour delay. We paid almost 800 Fr. for two return-tickets. Should have used Ryanair for half the price :-/
