Great initiative in the UK ! We need the same for Irish schools - perhaps through the great An Taisce Green School programme ? If you are a member of An Taisce please PM. flightfree.co.uk/flight_free_schools

One ticket from Ireland to Europe: EU seeks to simplify cross-border train travel and booking
The move, opposed by operators, would make journeys more seamless, helping passengers to find, compare and buy tickets in one go.

After cutting the subsidy for international night trains in December 2025 the French Government has chosen to subsidize… the flight route between Strasbourg and Munich. Yet, these two cities were served by the discontinued Paris-Vienna night train! agir.greenvoice.fr/petitions/strasb…

We need simpler streamlined integrated booking systems and connections for travel across land and sea in Europe, including from Ireland via Britain into continental Europe. People should not be led into taking destructive flights because booking systems, connection issues and costs of land and […]

Encouraging school tours to use land and sea based transport, in the Department of Education March newsletter on Education and Sustainable Development assets.gov.ie/static/documents/b82a…
Did you know that one passenger on one return flight Dublin-Paris causes as much climate pollution as a parent who lives 7.5km from a school driving a car to and from a school twice every school day for the whole year (167 days) ?

But if that passenger did that trip to and from Paris using ferry and train, that would be equivalent to only 12 days of the same school runs ? *

Your school can have a big impact by opting to stay in Ireland for school tours instead of flight-based school trips.  There are plenty of excellent and fun school trips which can be done on the island of Ireland.  Or if you do have a school trip abroad, for cultural exchange for example, your school can look into travel by land and sea!  Travelling in this way is a great experience for students, who see the places they are travelling through, and have fun on the journey!

The website http://ByLandAndSea.ie has lots of useful information about travelling by land and sea to and from Ireland.  Will your school join the Slow Travel movement ?
