Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Click&Go €1 booking deposit apply to my weekend break to Washington DC?
€1 booking deposits are only available for sun or city breaks in Europe. Check out our terms and conditions for more information.
How many days should I spend on my city break in Washington DC?
If you’re hoping to pack all the main events and attractions into your trip, it’s best to spend about 4 days in the city if possible. Remember to account for a little bit of jet-lag, too, as DC is 5 hours behind Ireland.
Can I fly directly from Ireland to Washington DC on a short break?
Absolutely! There are plenty of flights to the US capital every day. Our partnered airline Aer Lingus flies directly from Dublin Airport, but if you’re hoping to travel from Shannon Airport, you’ll need to changeover in London before flying to Washington DC.
What is the best time of year to visit Washington DC?
The summers in DC get hot – so if you’re hoping to enjoy strolling around the city and exploring the many incredible landmarks and attractions, it might be best to avoid the months when the temperatures soar. The fall is particularly beautiful in DC, although it’s a pretty common time to visit, so you might be facing some large crowds in the city’s streets. The winters get below freezing, which means the city is a little quieter and makes for some picturesque moments in the snow, too.
Are short breaks in Washington DC from Ireland possible?
Absolutely! While heading all the way to the United States from Ireland for a short break might sound a little overwhelming, we’ve got you covered! With an abundance of places to stay, from cheap and cheerful to high-end sophistication, Click&Go can help you find the perfect location so you can make the most of your Washington DC city break.
