    Hey,

    So I'm going from Connolly to harcourt st. Is there genuinely no single fare fee for this? I have to tag twice which ends up as a 4 euro farw each way. Kinda nuts for what is relatively a short distance!

    Tag on in Connolly and off at Harcourt. Leap is 1.54 each way.

    They only said for people to tag on/off between lines in case they forget and get full fare charged.

    Before anyone asks (I was about to) .... you don't get the Leap 90 discount (€1 discount on the 2nd and subsequent journeys within 90 minutes) for Luas-Luas trips.

    Leap 90 Discount does not apply to Luas – Luas or DART/ Commuter Rail – DART/ Commuter Rail as these trips already have specific discounted fares.

    So can you tap on a DART or commuter and tap it off that after a Luas? Or do you tap off the DART/commuter and then tap on a Luas and then tap off again? That’s what I’ve always done.

    You have to touch off when changing modes (except leaving a bus). Touch on at Dart charges you 4.90 and refunds you when you touch off. If you don't touch off there's no refund.

    If you're going to/from Dart to commuter you don't touch off between. Similarly if going Luas to Luas you don't touch off between either.
