Belfast probably has the most uncommon name for an airport: George Best. Best was a famous footballer in the 70´s, whose life of debauchery and glory seemed to have inspired Northern Ireland people, alongside with his football skills his life was marked by his bohemian lifestyle, regarding women and alcohol, in fact one of his most famous quotes was"In 1969 I gave up women and alcohol. It was the worst 20 minutes of my life". If you are interested in cheap air tickets you might fancy going on the route from Belfast to London (Luton) with Easy Jet. But while in Northern Ireland you may not want to leave that quickly because the country has so much to offer to an eager voyager. Did you know that the RMS Titanic was built in this coast line city? Well, the city has made a sort of Museum where you can visit the early installations in the Pump-House, who is not interested in witnessing a part of history which as gained an aura of mysticism. But there´s much more to see and do, the Parliament while not a first choice as a tourist attraction in this case is a thing to consider since it is surrounded by a beautiful garden transforming the visit into the heart of politics into a more colorful experience. The fares to go around the city are not that expensive and since the city is not that big as well you might enjoy tourist bus ride. Also going into the city from the airport is not a difficult challenge since the airport shuttle functions in perfection. If you are indecisive due to some political stress in the past, just don´t be. Nowadays, a climate of stability is now deep into the heart of Northern Ireland people, especially since The Good Friday agreement (or The Belfast agreement).
