An Inexpensive Trip to Croatia

I am going back to Croatia again in August and made a great discovery. There is an inexpensive way to get to Dubrovnik (at least less expensive). I’m saving $600 by flying to Ireland and taking the 99 euro Aer Lingus shuttle to Dubrovnik. Plus I get to spend a night or two in Dublin, not bad. The best price on Orbitz is $1523 leaving from Boston with stops in Philadelphia and Franfurt. My fare with a stop in Dublin is about $800 with taxes using an American Airlines ticket I bought in January and the Aer Lingus Shuttle.
