taxsaver help

    Annual price of taxsaver point to point irish rail (Athlone to Heuston) is €4960.00

    trying to find Annual cost of luas ticket (Heuston-Georges Dock/Busaras).

    Can someone help me here, with the combined cost of the above, how much of a saving can be made buying an annual ticket?

    Say you earn 42k

    I know its not as simple as deducting 20 or 40% from the cost, rather you pay in full and it comes out of gross income before you pay tax

    any help would be greatly appreciated

    Extra €440 per annum for Luas to Connolly.

    Total ticket cost €5400 but you would save €2592 according to taxsaver.ie

    There's an annual Irish rail 'all services' ticket with Luas for €5540.00 as well. So you'd pay €140 extra to travel anywhere, not just Dublin-Athlone. Might be better value if you ever travel somewhere else.
