Fianna Fáil’s election manfiesto aims to enhance the DiscoverEU pass, offering free interrail tickets and return flights to and from Ireland. The Green Party supports expanding free interrailing but favours sea travel over flying.
The Green Party proposes lobbying for a single SailRail ticket covering journeys to and from continental Europe across various modes of transportation, as well as advocating for a ban on private jets in the EU and ending the exemption of aviation fuel from taxation.
Both parties support providing free interrail tickets to all 18-year-olds annually, with their main difference being the preference for flying or sailing.
