Safe journey and I hope you both get to spend wonderful quality time together.
All the best to you and your lovely Dad.

As my Dad turns 90 on Thursday, I surely feel it, too! I won't be there in person, but in spirit. Mum turns 82 on Wednesday as well!!

Dad recovered enough to come home but returned to hospital the next night, got transferred to a hospice and sadly passed away the next evening. The only blessing being that he did so surrounded by my Mum, me and my 2 brothers.
The funeral was last Tuesday and I've got a few more days at home until I return on Wednesday

I had a bereavement flight, you will need to have a death certificate. It really wasn't much saving. Flight prices usually go higher 6 weeks out and keep going higher right up to the day of travel. Flyin on Xmas day or New Year may sometimes be a little cheaper. Icelandic have some of the cheaper flights. Also consider Aer Lingus to Dublin and taking the ferry to Holyhead.
