What's the cheapest way to get to San Diego from the UK/Ireland

What's the cheapest way to get to San Diego from the UK/Ireland?
I'm from Belfast and my friend and I are planning to go to San Diego for two weeks sometime in August. His girlfriend and her friends are over there for 3 months and invited us over for a holiday. However, the flights seem a little expensive! Can anyone advise me what the cheapest way to get there is? I'd imagine we'd have to fly out of Dublin or London. But is it cheaper to fly direct to somewhere in California, or get to New York and get an internal flight to CA? I've been told domestic flights are very cheap in the US. If it's the former, then is there anywhere in CA (or near San Diego) that would work out cheaper to fly to? (we're prepared to get a bus to San Diego). We've looked at direct flights from Dublin/London to San Diego and they're just too pricy. Can't justify paying that much money for a 2 week break. I'd appreciate any help - any advise with regards to airlines and so forth. Cash is tight so we're really looking for the best deal we can. Cheers.

Get a low cost airline

I have discovered from personal and professional experience that depending on what the travel itinerary is, it can actually be cheaper to take a flight with 1 stop; in your case, Belfast, Ireland to San Diego, CA(Traveller and Owner of a Travel Agency). Kindly email me at: indysteve1563@yahoo.com, or reach me directly through Yahoo Messenger; I have some great news for you regarding your flight itinerary.

take a flight to new york or washington DC and fly domestic into San Diego...that is the best way to go.
6 :
In the cost structure of airfares, San Diego Lindbergh Field (SAN) is often considered kind of out-of-the-way. Flying into Los Angeles (LAX) could be an option. You would be transferring to a special bus http://www.lawa.org/flyAwayInfo2.cfm at the airport that'll take you to meet the Amtrak trains http://www.amtrakcalifornia.com/ at L.A.'s Union Station. The routing you want will be the Pacific Surfliner, and it runs several times a day.

From: SAN - San Diego International Lindbergh Fl - US To: ACC - Kotoka International Airport - Accra - Ghana One-way trip Economic You first have to flight from SAN to LGW (Gatwick Airport- UK)... And it would cost (the cheapest) US$ 775 (20h traveling) Then you have to catch a fight from LGW to ACC... with Ghana International Airlines and it would cost US$ 475 (6h 30 traveling) Total cost: US$ 1,250 (almost 30h with the connection time in Gatwick) Have a nice trip.

I'm taking a flight from D.C. to San Diego. If I take a chicken sandwich to eat in the plane,

I'm taking a flight from D.C. to San Diego. If I take a chicken sandwich to eat in the plane,?
do you think it will spoil? Basically, my flight is at 6 pm but i will go to the airport around 3pm. But i won't be eating the sandwich until i'm actually on the flight, which will be around 8 pm. Therefore, the chicken sandwich will be in my bag for 5 hours. Will it spoil? Thanks.

Just don't let it get warm. San Diego, yay! You should go to Kojak's on Mission Beach. It's got crazy food.
2 :
#1 - GROSS #2 - Since your flight is at 6pm, they should serve you on the plane. #3 - Will they even allow you to bring it on board?
3 :
no, but if there is some sauce on it, it may taste nasty cuz it will be warm.
4 :
Its fine, just dont put payo or things like that on it. Also, make sure that they allow you to take food with the new regulations.
5 :
Not if you wrap it good and put it in a cooler bag with either an ice pack or ice. With the new restrictions to the flights can you still carry on food? I've been hearing no drinks . . .
6 :
I think it would spoil and I am not sure that the airline would let you bring it on board anyway. But I think left in a bag for 5 hours it would be taking a risk eating it.
7 :
Assuming you'll even be allowed to bring the oh-so-dangerous chicken sandwich on board... It should be ok. Wrap it tightly and then double wrap it in a zip lock or something like that. Recommend leaving the mayo and any lettuce/tomator off - it might end up as one big sloppy mess if you don't. If you can - and you might not be able to - bring condiment packets with you.
8 :
no it wont i took a chicken sald sandwhichg and it wasok
9 :
Are you travelling as an un-accompanied baby or a brainless twit? If anyone has any luck since last week you will have your sandwich (spoiled or not) shoved down your face by an out of patience TSA "representative". Glad you're not sitting next to me honey buns.
10 :
Make sure you can bring food on the plane...you might want to call the carrier you're flying with. Then too, even if you can bring food, I don't think I'd take a chicken sandwich. It will taste weird being out of a cool refrigerator, not to mention the bad microbes and bacteria that will use the sandwich as a medium to grow on. Take something that's made for lugging around an airport like a bag of chips or fruit or something else.

most of all cases of food poisoning are from chicken (FACT) any meat product is best kept refrigerated, at room temperature cold meats very quickly spoil and are deemed unsafe to eat!!!

Well i suggest if you are going to fly on a plane to wear a diguise. Per say maybe a LONG BEARD and a towel around your head. And make sure to bring lots of fluids. and make sure to open up watches and such electronics and bring the opened electronics on the plane on your carry on with the wires exposed and such.And sing the song You Dropped The Bomb On Me outloud the entire plane ride
2 :
To make the flight a more pleasant experience, put all liquids in your check-in bag and not in your carry-on. There will be long lines, so be patient. And buy Dramamine - chewables. I've flown several times since 9/11. I have several friends that are airline pilots and flight attendants. It is safer now than ever to travel. Relax and have a safe flight.

Things have really settled down since the post 911 days. I mean as far as the overall feeling that is in the airport. I traveled alot in late 2001 and early 2002, and man was in uncomfortable and eerie at most airports. Things are better today. My best advice is to arive at the airport early. Beacuse lines have gotten longer since before 911. I would advise 2 hours. That way incase you do have issues, you will have ample time to correct them. Also remember that if you carry liquids in your carry-on, they need to be in 3 ounce bottles and be in a clear ziplock bag. Otherwise you will have to put them your checked luggage.

I flew in February from Newark to Las Vegas, and they seem to have their routine down a little better than before. Check out your airport website--it has the info so you know what you can bring and what you can't, wait times, etc. http://www.san.org/
5 :
For starters, some of the most important information you can have is about what you can and can't pack, and whether it can be carried on or checked. Here are a couple of links to TSA web pages that you should familiarize yourself with. The first is the TSA prohibited items list, the second is the TSA 3-1-1 liquid carry-on guidelines: http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/prohibited/permitted-prohibited-items.shtm http://www.tsa.gov/311/index.shtm Make sure you get to the airport at least 2 hours before your scheduled flight (check what the airline has to say about arrival time as depending upon the size and normal crowd level of the airport, you may have to be there a little earlier even). At the security checkpoint you are required to remove your shoes and have them screened, so I would advise wearing shoes that are easy to remove and put on, as well as socks so you're not barefoot on the airport floor. If you carry on liquids (all under 3.4 oz. and placed in a 1-quart zip-top bag) the bag will have to be taken out of your carry-on so security personal can see it. All of the security measures can be a nuisance, but they're in place to protect us, and it's really not all that bad. It usually takes me around 5 minutes, if that, to get all the way through the security checkpoint. Depending on what all you're carrying on though, your stuff can become separated if it's in different bins, so just double check to make sure you have everything before leaving the security checkpoint.
