Cheap flights from Dublin to London from £12

The Republic of Ireland's capital, Dublin, is the largest city on the Emerald Isle and has a thriving historical, cultural and industrial scene. Dublin's busy international airport now has two terminals. Terminal 1 mainly looks after short haul flights, including London to Dublin flights and vice versa, while Terminal 2 is much bigger and mostly deals with long-haul, including those US bound. The terminals are linked by a footbridge. There are numerous transport links that run from Dublin city centre to Dublin Airport, as well as a network of buses and coaches that serve the towns and cities across Ireland.

Dublin to London flights arrive at Dublin Airport, and the airport is conveniently located 6 miles from the city centre. Depending on the location from which you are departing, there are a number of transport options available including local bus services that run from the city centre, South Dublin and Kildare, as well as national coach services that travel from places further afield, such as Cork and Belfast.

Although there is no direct train service, bus routes also connect with nearby train stations, Connolly Station and Heuston Station. Drivers can access the airport via the M1 and M50 motorways. Alternatively, taxis offer a convenient way to arrive at the airport quickly.

From sights like Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and the Houses of Parliament, that have shaped the capital's history, to ground-breaking art galleries such as the Tate Modern and National Gallery, there are many reasons visitors are continually captivated by England's vibrant capital. The West End is the beating heart of London's theatre scene, while nearby you can feast on authentic Asian food in bustling Chinatown before popping into an atmospheric Soho pub or eclectic music venue. Despite the fact that London is Europe's largest city, many of its central sights can be explored on foot or via the underground tube system that will whisk you to whichever area you wish to discover in no time.

Flights from Dublin to London can arrive into one of the capital's five main airports - Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, Luton and London City Airports. All five airports are well connected to London's city centre. Gatwick is served by the fast track Gatwick Express train, which takes around 30 minutes to arrive into London Victoria, as well as the local Thameslink service. While Heathrow is linked to the city by the Heathrow Express or the slower - but more economical - underground Piccadilly line. Stansted and Luton can also be reached by the Stansted Express and Thameslink train services respectively, while central London City Airport is easy to get to on the DLR.
