    As has been mentioned it's easy to fall foul of the blackouts/restrictions but I've never had a problem finding free flights on previous occasions - none to be had this time around - it is perhaps telling that Ryanair aren't providing info on the levels of availability as they have done previously.

    [edit] just tried stanstead - brussels Dec 13am -Dec17pm and two non taxed flights came up; as these are the dates I was looking for Newcastle-Dublin it may be only the routes listed by the OP are available to travel tax free.

    Looks like it's great if you want to go to Glasgow and come back from Brussels or Knock!!!

    I booked a few flights last time with no problem, I can't seem to find anyrhing this time without tax added. We can go from Stansted or Luton, I might give up looking.

  • It's been an extremely limited promotion this time round as far as I can see.

    Maybe they've realised their loss leader hasn't done a lot of leading. Or, maybe they'd already done very well selling tickets for the next quarter.

    I guess we'll never know. Until the next sale comes round and has more, less, or the same availability as this one ...
  • i too habe looked for liverpool and nothing comes up for Valencia...its acon. i can't see any genuine 1p flights fro Liverpool anywhere.

    I just spent about 90 seconds looking and found 2p inc tax returns from Liverpool to Valencia in November.

    Can anyone help? It says wednesday is ok to travel on.

    2p return.
  • Using the MSE Flightchecker I found a couple of inbound flights to East Midlands but no outbound ones at all for the whole promotional period. When I clicked through to the Ryanair site, even the ones that the Flightchecker had found had taxes added to them.

    Cool if you do find one though!

    Fri-Mon in Belfast

    Friday 23rd November - Monday 26th November

    2p return.

    I cant find anything from Glasgow.. :(

    I have sued this offer a few times so I know how to search but nothing without taxes :(

    If anyone finds anything at all from Prestwick please post x

    There are several dates from Prestwick - Shannon for 2p return in November even though it's not advertised as being in the promotion.

    Also a week in Kaunas in mid November, havent checked any other dates for Kaunas.
