You may say that I am biased but I believe that Ireland is probably one of the best places on planet earth for a vacation or holiday. Ireland will never provide us with the sunshine and balmy days of Florida or Italy but nobody travels to Ireland for that type of experience. When the sun shines it’s a very welcome added bonus and gives the wonderful features of the real Ireland an even better ambiance.
If only to boost my view, last week I read an article in the New York Times where DAN BARRY (the NYTimes This Land columnist) shares an experience that confirms Ireland as a destination not to be missed

A recent article in The Independent in London described Ryanair’s low cost air-fares as ‘flights of fancy’.
“Buying a ticket from Ryanair’s website is an experience that leaves me enraged,” the journalist writes. “Although the front page flashes adverts about free or low-cost flights, the starting price no longer bears any resemblance to how much you’ll finally end up paying.”
I am a fan of Michael O’Leary and what he has achieved but at this stage I am coming to the conclusion that the notion of “low fares” with Ryanair is fast becoming no more than a myth.

On Friday, May 9, 2008, myguideTravel was a sponsor of the annual ICCUSA (New England chapter) Emerald Award Gala Ball held at the InterContinental Hotel in Boston. ICCUSA is the Ireland Chamber of Commerce in the USA
and is a non-profit business networking organization with a focus on Ireland. ICCUSA is nationwide in the US and each major city has its own chapter. ICCUSA’s goal is to foster business relationships and economic exchanges between the US and Ireland in a variety of ways, including a breakfast speaking series, charitable fund raising and an annual trade mission.
