Knock, knock: Who's There? You are.

Taking a western Ireland golf vacation just got a whole lot easier and cheaper, especially if the great golf courses at Rosapenna, Donegal, County Sligo and Enniscrone are on your play list.
That’s because the first-ever direct flights from New York and Boston to Ireland West Airport – Knock will begin on May 27, 2007.
The routes were lobbied for by Mayor Michael Bloomberg as a way to bring Irish tourists and their shopping dollars to New York City, but there’s no reason why Americans seeking an Ireland golf vacation can’t take advantage of them, too.
There will be three flights per week between New York’s JFK Airport and Ireland West Airport – Knock, and two flights per week via Boston’s Logan International Airport. The five-year-old, low cost, Scotland-based airline, Flyglobespan, will operate the routes, with fares starting at $259 each way.
