Another interesting business class fare from Dublin to Orlando in July/August for £651 (note you will pay in USD on United site). Edit: Some reports of payment problems for the Dublin departures so go to desktop UK site and you'll pay in Gbp £650.40.
Belfast a few pence cheaper!
There does seem to be some interesting business class fares for Miami, San Fran etc between the £7-£800 mark if anyone is interested for the period of July and August.

Note although it says first class it is a P class fare and will be business not first class... I'm not sure first class is even operated on these flights they do a BusinessFirst. If you do get first class then consider that a definite bonus!
FIrst in the US domestic market is Business Class.

I’ve flown United B/F a few times and it is a very solid hard Business Class product, what lets the American carriers down is the quality of the food service on board. But more than worth it at this price. A couple of notes -
P Class is normally used for bookings with a TATL Business Class sector followed by a domestic First class sector. Domestic First in the US is completely different to First on transatlantic flights and doesn’t feature lie flat seats - it's similar to Club Europe on BA, a slightly better standard of service and a bit more space. Also worth noting the TATL United flights do not have a first class cabin. So while you will fly F on your domestic American leg, you will not be in First flying to America.
Another note - it is worth checking that all of your flights are booked into the correct fare class as you can get booked into Economy on domestic legs where there is not availability. So double-double check that your domestic flights are booked into First (P).
Dublin is fast becoming a hub for this type of journey - BA are doing Business Class flights to NYC for the same period for around £796 with a connection in Heathrow which may suit others better.

Any suggestions for a similar return fare? Thanks

Correct me if I'm wrong but these aren't non-stop flights - these are change over ones? Would it not take the pleasure of going business class if you're changing over?
Also, I'm only 90 minutes drive from Dublin but any of you mainland UK peeps, that'd be 3 flights.

Yeah unfortunately no non stop flights at this price. Some have longer/shorter stopovers too so you'll need to carefully work out which connecting flights are best.

HOTTTTT! plus you can clear US immigration in Dublin and avoid the queue in Orlando.

Just saw and voted hot on your other post with non stop New York flights. If you want to include a day or two in Dublin as part of a holiday then I guess it wouldn't be so bad.

looks good, but it won't let you pay.
