Can anyone tell me what airlines fly to Boston so I can look them up for the cheapest flights. The dates I am looking at are 28Jun-2Jul, high season I know. I have a €689pp price from Aer Lingus but that seems high.
 
Aer Lingus and American Airlines fly to Boston from Ireland. There is usually a charter flight to Boston from Ireland during the peak summer months - I think American Holidays operates this charter flight - I flew on it in 2005 and it was fine - a lot cheaper that scheduled services - worth checking out.
 
Flyglobespan.com are starting flights to Boston from Knock airport in May or June. (Don't forget to add on your ten euro per person fee to depart from Knock - the "development charge").

Does anyone know if you can clear US immigration in Knock Airport? No mention of it among all the waffle on the link provided by DrM. If not, I think this will be a considerable disadvantage, particularly during the busy summer months, compared to Dublin or Shannon.

[Update: They've confirmed that 'all immigration checks and clearance will be carried out in the USA, not Ireland West
Airport Knock'. Bit of a downside, all right...]
