    I think the small print will say that your card will be charged about €25 if you do not return the same day.

    Might have been a past Irish Ferries offer but I have definitely read somewhere the bit about being charged if you don't return the same day.

    Aye, maybe it was on the Irish Ferries one, I think they've done similar day trips before?

    But they don't need to implement the "penalty" for not returning the same day. According to the T&C, your return trip on a different day will be forfeit automatically as you won't be able to turn up for the outward journey. You could pay a full price single return journey I suppose and save less.

    Oh yeah, I get what you mean! Buuut, it seems if you go to the .co.uk address, you can do the opposite to get back to Ireland for £12.50 :pac:

    So you'd have to book the outward on the .ie site and the return on the .co.uk site!

    IF seem to have a next day return offer price from the home page you should find the offer. It doesn't show the price as discounted but just checked the weekend prices and can see they are cheaper than I'd expect by a useful amount.

    Thats heavily discounted.

    Try changing your return date to a day in advance so you are staying another day and see how the prices shoot up.

    Can't remember when the new time table comes out but you've plenty of time next year but I think the new time table should be out at the end of the year in time for yet another offer.

    If you can be bothered go back through the thread and see how many offers come out between Jan and June, I'd say at least two 25% off offers.

    The thing to do is to sign up for the newsletters then you'll get notification as soon as the offers are available.

    I'm travelling the end of November I'll hold out to at least the first week before booking in case of a decent discount. Might even go with Stena as Irish Ferries have been cancelling a lot around storms when in the past they would have sailed (25 years travelling with them).

    Vans, by their nature, attract commercial fares AFAIK
