    Ryan air are flying as normal from Liverpool to knock on 23rd. Liverpool was totally snow free on Monday when I flew out to Geneva and are not currently reporting anything in the way of cancellations. Getting to Liverpool might be fun though - are the trains running at the moment?

    Going Out

    Regular Fare

    Depart:
    Liverpool 11:40

    Arrive:
    Knock 12:45

    1 x Adult 44.99 GBP


    Fare: 44.99 GBP
    Online Check-In: 5.00 GBP
    Taxes / Fees: 33.01 GBP
    Total Price: 83.00 GBP

    My folks moved out there about 10 years ago. My dads family was originally from there (kiltimagh - probably spelt wrong) At one point not long back I was in a pub with 4 other blokes called Tony English and 4 called Patrick English. Can't get that many there now as great uncle popped his clogs.

    Just as well I never went over, trying to get a flight out tomorrow (they only fly out once a day to Luton from Knock) would have been nigh on impossible and that would have meant the nightmare before, during and after xmas for me in the sticks.

    Dublin is not so bad.
