Newark - Nj
Gatwick - Newark International Airport ( LGW - EWR )
They left my bag in London! 3 days without my bag and counting.
Miami International Airport - Dublin ( MIA - DUB )
I had to travel to Ireland for my aunt's funeral. I traveled the same day I booked the flight. I thought the price was horribly expensive (approx. $1950). I could not find a mechanism for attempting to obtain a bereavement fare if such an option still exists. Other than that the flight(s) were fine. Nice people working for the company.

Dublin - Heathrow ( DUB - LHR )
This was a horrible experience. The booking stated aier lingus. After wasting 20 mins with them we find out it's a british airways flight. Then we find out it's overbooked and we had to wait until.last.minute and rush though security. You need to detail the correct airlines.
