Hello Annelizabeth,
That's shocking news,we met so many lovely irish people last year who were staying at the Loulass Hotel in Psaras.(We stayed next door at Kerkyra Island)Everyone would meet up in Elenis taverna just around the corner and most of the guests we spoke to had been using budger travel for years and always staying at the same place.
In fact the Irish Times last August did a really good article about that area and budget travel.
Had anyone already booked for next year? I hope you all still manage to get to Corfu , i was looking forward to meeting all the lovely and interesting regulars next summer.

Budget Travel, Ireland's only carrier to Corfu, went into liquidation yesterday and has ceased trading. This means that there will be no direct flights from Ireland to Corfu. I can't see anyone else taking up this route. It will also make it very difficult for the many Irish people who have property in Corfu, most of it in the South of the Island. Ireland has had a long relationship with Corfu and this news is very sad.

sad for the Irish but a lot sadder for the many apartment owners who are owed thousands of Euros for accommodation used last season

Given that there are many cheap flights to Manchester from Dublin, and that Easyjet now fly to Corfu twice a week during the summer, could that be an alternative way of you getting to Corfu? I hope so, because Corfu needs all the visitors it can get

You never know maybe either easyjet or Jet2 might look into doing Ireland to Corfu Direct.
Maybe you should all start bombarding them with emails about a direct flight route for you.
Sometimes it takes the public to show them there is a need for these flights.
Good Luck all in Ireland.

Also sad for their agents in Corfu who will lose revenue as well next year. I think Allways Travel in San Rocco were Budget Travels' agents for years? Is that corrcet?
