Stena Line ferry crossing between Wales or Scotland
and Ireland during the pass's validity (It is OK to leave via one port and

for holidays. (Call 800/677-8585 in the USA for information on ferry connections.
Visit Seaview for
online timetables, news and information).
"Standard"
is British for "second" class.
Ireland's train system
fans out from Dublin but dosn't go into much of the countryside on west coast.
The bus system is better for these areas, and much cheaper (e.g. $20
Dublin-Cork). Check
