Irish Rail group bookings

    Hey, not sure if this will be applicable for my scenario, but there is a group of us; 8 travelling to Cork for the weekend... Friday > Monday, but with tickets at €66 return I just noticed on the site there is a discount for group bookins for 10 or more

    http://www.irishrail.ie/your_ticket/group_travel.asp


    It mentions that tickets start at €12 on all routes, so if there is 8 of us, and we get 10 tickets for 240, it works out at €30 per person instead...

    Anyone use this group booking before!? just wondering if something like this would work for 8 people instead of 10 by just getting 2 extra tickets!?


    Also, prob should mention 5 of us are going on Friday and 3 on Sat... not sure how this will work if at all, but I don't see a reason why not doesn't mention anything in the terms and conditions about it!

    But yeah anyone know anything about this, any advice appreciated

    I really can't see how a group booking could be made when not all of the group is travelling on the same train, that, allied to the fact that you don't have 10 people travelling only 8 means it's a non-runner.

    If any of your group have annual taxsaver tickets they can get a discount bringing the fare to €51.
