Re: Going to Ireland through Heathrow on two separate tickets
I did a similar trip in 2013. Las Vegas-NY - Gatwick - Dublin then Holyhead. Never again. (Hey I saved $2.74 going this way
)kidding!
On the return it was Holyhead-Dublin-Heathrow-NY,
In Heathrow I missed the connection to NY so had to stay overnight. In order to get the airline hotel voucher I needed to enter the UK and it is surprising I didn't get arrested because I was shouting at the top of my lungs because I couldn't find the Aer Lingus agent who was in an area I couldn't get to. Long story and complicated! Very stressful.
Again, never again.
