Title: Slightly out of area help required - how can I find out the fare.... Post by: Mookiemoo on July 09, 2012, 15:54:40 For a day return from Dublin Connolly to Belfast Central
SAturday 18th August I am using irishrail.ie but because its not bookable online I can't seem to get it to tell me the fare! Going mad.

You need to use http://journeyplanner.irishrail.ie/bin/query.exe/en - although it won't give you a fare in August, if you pick an earlier date it's 9.99 euros for a single.

Post by: Southern Stag on July 09, 2012, 17:06:47 Two years ago a day return from Connolly to Belfast Central cost me 30 euros, I bought that on the day from the ticket machine at Connolly station. You could book online which as TJ said is 9.99 euros single but they also charge a booking fee I believe and I couldn't get the system to accept my card two years ago so I ended up buying on the day. Irish fares information seems very hard to obtain and confusing, even compared to our system.

You haven't posted in a while... :( Well I'm trying to keep a low profile since I feel a little like poacher come game keeper. I also don't post much on cotswolds issues and first class since - um - I don't exactly pay in general these days I know CERTAIN PEOPLE read these forums and that is just a by product of positive developments in my life I am working in ireland and mr mooks (aka the flyingscotsman on here - if he ever bothers to post lol) is coming over to visit and fancies going to belfast - hence the Q Title: Re: Slightly out of area help required - how can I find out the fare....
