Answer 1

You need a normal aussi passport. Don't go to england first, just go to Northern Ireland...the whole thing will be easier.

Does your granny know your going yet?

when will you be 16? you're not allowed to book a flight in any way shape or form until you are 18.

good luck anyway wish i was moving there!!! lol

Answer 3

Hiya,

You are only entitled to an Australian passport unless you have dual citizenship with another country. You don’t need multiple passports for international travel so that’s fine.  To go on vacation to Ireland you do not need a visa. You may find it extremely difficult to immigrate there (if not possible) at your age due to you are probably too young to have attained any skills that would be needed for a work permit (& I am not sure if they issue permits to under 18s). Then it comes to being easier to fly to Britian first. It may very well be that the flights you book will take you into London & then on to Ireland. Heathrow is a major world hub & a lot of international flights go through there. So yeah you might have heard that it is easier to go through there first as there will be more flight routes open to you. End of the day just go ahead & book what ever flights have the best price & times for you. From an ease of passing through immigration stand point won’t matter whether your first point of entry to the EU is through the UK or Ireland.

Hope that helps!
