    Even that sounds expensive for a bus from Tralee to Limerick and back.

    Is just my take, but I think public transport in this country is horribly overpriced especially for trips that don't involve travelling to and from Dublin.

    Fingers crossed that Siptu don't have another strike in place by the time you are ready to travel as there was something on the radio about them wanting to ballot their members (bus and train) to strike as a show of support to those who went on strike on Sunday/Monday.

    sorry i should point out my final destination was gonna be dingle hence the return being nearly 40euro,which i guess aint bad 20 quid each way but 40 euro in one go kills me ha. hopefully by next thursday this will be resolved and i can head home :)

    51 quid for a train ticket is a disgrace. No wonder CIE makes losses every year. Eejits
