    Hi All
    I notice now that Iarnród Éireann are selling a combined Train, Bus and Luas ticket... to Dublin City Centre

    Does anone know what is considered to be Dublin CC?

    Is the ticket time limited eg. 30 mins after the train arrives in Heuston?
    Or is there some delimiter that decides where is and where is not the City Centre?

    I wish to travel from Heuston to the Point Depot. As far as I am concerned this should all be covered by the "city centre" luas fare...

    The Point Depot is in Dublin 1

    What do others think?

    The Point Depot is in Dublin 1

    Hope that helps somewhat.

    Hi fh041205
    So does that mean that I can take the Luas from Heuston to Connolly?

    Where do they define that CC is between Heuston and Connolly?

    Because its between the two main rail stations. Thats the main idea. Although you can buy 3 day/7 day/monthly combination tickets which would cover the luas to the point depot I THINK. I'm not 100% on that.

    The ticket is valid on the LUAS to any stop as far as Connolly or Georges Dock and no further.

    The LUAS is a zonal fare structure and as such the line between Georges Dock and the Point is in a different fare zone and the LUAS add-on is not valid beyond Georges Dock.

    Whether you think that it should be in the city centre or not I am afraid is not what counts!! To get to The Point requires you to buy a separate ticket from Georges Dock.

    The ticket is not time limited.
