So before I book my flight just want to see if you have had any luck with finding something a little cheaper…Right now I can book AA for $1250 (June 12-July 14) with all taxes. I can move dates a bit, cant before June 12th and after July 14.

Where have you already checked (so we do not repeat efforts)?

Putting Dublin in the mix turns up some significantly cheaper results — $997 total to DUB and return from FRA your dates with American connecting at Chicago O’hare each way. Come back from STR instead for $1003. (Just DUB r/t = $960). You can pick up a one-way hop from DUB to LON airports around June 15 for $80 if booked now, on Cityjet flying to LCY City Airport; or if you can stomach Ryanair and it’s fees, you can fly DUB to STN or LTN for about $14 airfare. So compared to your $1250, looks like this might save you about $230 on airfare, and give you some time in Dublin if you want it.
