You’d pay more to get to some European cities.

Icelandic airline WOW has just announced a new route from Dublin and Cork to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in America. And the best part is that it won’t set you back a small fortune.

Prices start from €129.99 when the route begins in June 2017. The flights will operate on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.

I just did a quick check and you can fly out Monday June 19th and return Sunday June 24th for just €301.13 all included. The outbound flight is €129.99 and the return is €155.99, together with some charges brings it to just over the €300 mark.

What a STEAL.

According to The Irish Times, the founder and CEO of the company, Skúli Mogensen, said:

“Pittsburgh is certainly a destination on the rise and one that will appeal to a wide range of Irish travellers looking to discover somewhere different, so we’re thrilled to add the destination to our route list.

“The past year has truly solidified our presence in the US.  In the last six months alone we have added San Francisco and Los Angeles to our route network and we look forward to continuing this rate of expansion into 2017.”
