Cheapest way to get to Waterford (Ireland)?

Hi everyone - need to go to Waterford in Ireland around the 16th January.

What would be the cheapest way to get there?

At the moment - a return flight from Luton airport seems the cheapest - £106.

Would there be anything cheaper?

Many thanks.

    That was with Air Aaenn i think.

    I can fly from other places - East Mids, Birmingham, Humberside, etc...

    Thank you.

    I don't think Waterford airport is very well connected. In fact I think Aer Arran are the only airline, and they only fly to Birmingham, Luton and Manchester.

    You could fly to Dublin and then make your way from there. Train takes 2.5 hours but a coach might be faster.

    Wow, flights to Dublin start at £21.

    Seems to be the cheapest option!

    Thanks very much.
