All journeys are priced at half equivalent return fare. So a return journey costs the same.

A significant portion of ticket sales are still singles. A lot of people purchase singles in the morning as they don't know how they will be getting home that evening. A lot of people queue up for returns every morning as well.

Daily and weekly price capping is something we are discussing with Irish Rail. That would go beyond the now famous Oyster card functionality in London which only handles daily capping. Thats the killer function for us as it ensures the lowest fares over a week of use.

The port issue is something we raised with IE, it will be fixed in due course. I have no problem from behind two different corporate firewalls.
