1. Which airlines are generally chosen for travel from China to Ireland? Where can one buy cheaper tickets?
There are no direct flights from China to Ireland; at least one transfer is required. Because some airlines have particularly long layover times, such as Emirates and Turkish Airlines, and because transferring in Europe generally makes it easier to adjust to the time difference when arriving in Ireland, it is recommended to choose a transfer in Europe. Airlines that generally receive positive feedback include KLM and Lufthansa (also known as German Airlines). Their prices are moderate (it is said that they offer special fares several times a year, though you must book at least two or three months in advance), and they are considered relatively comfortable.
One more thing to add: sometimes the official website price is cheaper than that of third-party booking sites, and sometimes it is more expensive, so it is recommended to check and compare more.
