Dublin-Belfast €10 web fares

pixiebean22 · 22-09-2010, 13:02

Can anyone tell me if these €10 single fares operate on the Dublin-Belfast line?

Thanks.

They do, although not on all services and there is a limited number of seats offering the fare on each train. The early afternoon departure from Connolly and morning departures from Central are generally the most likely to have the reduced price. Only journeys originating from the ROI can be booked online, i.e. you can't book a single from Central/Portadown/Newry.

Cheers for that. Been trying to book tickets but can't book more than 28 days in advance so just wanted to check if they were available on that route.

Irish Rail only allow booking 28 days ahead

Irish Rail does not operate time based pricing, it is demand based so there is no jump in fares 7 or 14 days before travel as is common elsewhere

18 euro single on all trains is available, the late evening departure is 10 euro normally
