Reservations
Reservations for 2nd class can be purchased online. To do so, the passenger option must first be selected:
Then the “Adults” selection can be deselected and the “Free Travel Pass” option selected.
Reservations for 2nd class are issued free of charge. Only on some heavily used services are reservation fees of 2.50 € charged.
The prices displayed for Premier Class include the price difference between 1st and 2nd class, so these reservations can be booked to travel in Premier Class with a 2nd class FIP Card.
Reservations for 1st class FIP Coupons cannot be booked online via Irish Rail.
Personal Tip
In Ireland, the names of passengers are generally displayed on the reservation indicators in the trains. If this is not desired, the booking can indicate that the ticket number should be displayed instead.
