And because America is at a turning point don’t we all want to get on board.
Especially when on board is with our friends at Aer Lingus who early last year had me all booked up for the Florida Keys when…!

Waving the flag for DC and Aer Lingus

Cruise into ’21
Or a Happy Blue Year, the kind of blue you only find on the sea
Or the blue of Greece. So let’s put them together.

A six-night Greece and Croatia cruise, leaving from Venice (Ravenna) on Rhapsody of the Seas from €569pp taking in Split, Olympia and Athens.

If you’re an Irish United fan, and there are many, you’ll no doubt know about Celtic Horizons and Abbey Travel.
And the important thing is that we will all be together again soon in a football ground.
