    Why is it €2.50 single way From Ballyogan Wood To Stephen's Green
    And €2.60 single way From Stephen's Green To Ballyogan Wood?

    Why is it 10 cent more??
    Bull****

    Might be expensive but you are traveling 17 stops?

    Dublin bus charge €2.20 for their max fare. Thats just 30/40c more for the sake of convenience and comfort of a tram

    It is a bit irritating all right. I usually pay for one zone less and take my chances.

    I doubt this means the Luas in general is a scam.

    OP, you are wrong.

    OP, your original question is a fair one, but the rest of your posts aren't ok. This isn't After Hours.

    Post like that again in this forum and you'll find yourself comprehensively banned.
