There is no credit card surcharge when you buy via Irish Rail or via Arriva Trains Wales. Irish Ferries charge everyone a crazy credit card fee which is all but impossible to avoid, Stena Line do as well but at least they don't charge a visa debit card.

Its actually cheaper to buy a SailRail ticket from Holyhead station to Dublin than to go foot passenger ticket as a result.

Fast ferry surcharge has been around for some time, Irish Rail wasn't charging it on the Swift for a while due to an admin oversight.
