My wife thinks I should be (committed, as in put away safely for my own well-being). Not really! She understands and supports that I have to go and so I have bought tickets to Dublin leaving on April 17th (66th birthday) and onwards from there to Estella to finish my 2016 camino.
Any suggestions on the best way to get to Estella from Dublin would be appreciated.
Thanks!:)
 
The 9th edition the Lightfoot Guide will let you complete the journey your way.

Flight from Dublin to Bilbao seems reasonable. Do check out prices with Air Lingus.

Then bus Bilbao to Estella.
With Alsa or La Union company.
Alsa company goes through Logroño and La Union goes via Pamplona. In between 3.30 and 4h time.

This site can be of help.

Happy preparation!

Also look at Ryanair (budget airline) flights from Dublin. They have daily flights to Madrid from where you could bus or train to Estella. Buen Camino.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

For sure, I have traveled on Ryan Air several times and will definitely consider them.
 
I thought I'd like to let everyone know that I have booked my flight from Dublin to Madrid on Iberia and then I'll bus from Madrid to Logrono and then to Estella on the morning of April 19th. I may be a little jetlagged by this time but I'll be back on camino for five weeks. Can't wait!
