Which Agent Offers the Best Package Holidays From Cork, Shannon, And Knock?

Let’s be honest: the thought of trekking up the M7 or the M8 to Dublin Airport is enough to put a dampener on anyone’s holiday excitement. Between the early morning start, the parking hassle, and the sheer size of the queues, it’s a bit of a mission before you’ve even seen a plane. 

But here’s the good news—Dublin isn’t the centre of the universe (don’t tell them I said that). You can jet off to the sun straight from your doorstep. Whether you’re near Cork, Shannon, or Knock, the best package holidays are often closer than you think. And if you’re wondering which agent offers the best deals from these regional airports, well, you’ve come to the right place. At Budget Travel, we know that your holiday starts the minute you lock your front door, which is why we’ve made flying local easier—and cheaper—than ever. 

Why fly from your local airport?

We’ve all done the "Dublin Dash." You know the one—getting up at 2 am to drive across the country for a 7 am flight. It’s exhausting. Flying from Cork, Shannon, or Knock changes the game completely. 

  • Less stress: Smaller airports mean shorter queues and less rushing. You can breezing through security in a fraction of the time. 
  • Save money: When you factor in the petrol, tolls, and expensive Dublin airport parking, flying local can often work out cheaper overall. 
  • Convenience: There’s nothing quite like landing after a week in the sun and knowing you’re only a short drive from your own bed.
