Connecting flights from Belfast to New York

As there are no feeder flights from Belfast into European mainline hubs, you will almost certainly have to travel via London Heathrow to take a connecting flight to New York. Even going via London means that you are having to fly east before flying back west, so we would certainly recommend taking direct flights with Continental Airlines where possible. If decent prices are not available on the dates you are searching, you might find it more convenient to look for direct Dublin to New York flights, as the journey from Belfast to Dublin airport should be much more convenient than having to traipse through Heathrow to take a connecting flight.

By road, Dublin airport is just under 100 miles from Belfast -- a two-hour drive according to Google maps, but as this drive is motorway most of the way (except for between Lisburn and Newry), it should take a bit less than this. See our Dublin airport page for information about flights from Dublin to New York, and also for deals on Dublin airport parking. Air Coach and Bus Eireann provide coach services between Belfast and Dublin airport. Air coach buses depart hourly at 30 minutes past each hour from Jury's hotel in Belfast, and take just under two and a half hours to reach Dublin airport. Bus Eireann coaches depart from Belfast Europa bus centre, hourly on the hour, taking either 2 hours 10 minutes or 2 hours 35 minutes to get to Dublin airport.
