    It will depend on what rate of tax you are paying.

    Period depends on the employer. If you're public sector, note that your salary figure used for calculation of the pension levy is reduced by the cost of the ticket - a saving of a further 10% for most (on top of 52% paye + prsi + usc if at higher tax rate).
