Cached-fare history: across 4 months, Apr is the cheapest for DUB → SEL. Best time to be there: Apr–May · Sep–Oct.
Fares bottom out in April around $838 and peak in March near $1,066 — a $228 spread across the 4 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 15.5 hours outbound, on a 14-night trip — ticketed under Qatar Airways, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $838 for 8,951 km each way, that works out to about $47 per 1,000 km flown. That is about the $44 typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 31 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Seoul, this fare ranks 27th — 1.7× the $484 we hold from Istanbul. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 32 routes of similar length we watch out of Dublin, where the middle fare is $838.

DUB → SEL, answered.
Is $838 a good price for Dublin to Seoul?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $1,005 round-trip and this fare is 17% under it, about $167. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from Dublin to Seoul?
Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Apr comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Seoul are Apr–May · Sep–Oct — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book DUB → Seoul?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Apr comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Dublin to Seoul?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Qatar Airways. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
