    Doesn't matter. They are intended to be usable whenever you want to start it for the rest of the year.

    Interesting that it classifies a child as someone up to age 18 before they turn 19 but Irish Rail classify a child as being under 16 years of age, would there be an issue using it for kids aged 16-18 on Irish Rail?
    Child

    Children Travelling on Intercity Services

    Who is eligible for this ticket?

    Customers under 16 years of age

    This works on the bus eireann red routes(out as far as cellbridge) too so a fantastic deal. The trip from these towns to Dublin city alone are normally €7.60 return per adult so for a family and unlimited travel withindublin that's a huge saving

    How long do these take to arrive? Need one for next weekend but feel like I might be taking a risk if they're slow getting them out?

    Its up to 4 children, but not necessary. Neither is 2 adults. But thats when you get the value out of it. Daily cap on 1 adult is 10 euro on mixed usage in Dublin.
