Question:224 Mr. Killeen asked the Minister for Tourism and Trade the plans, if any, he has to introduce a promotion similar to the Vienna Card in this country. [7723/95]
Written Answers. - Public Transport Promotion.
The Vienna Card is a three day ticket for public transport in Vienna that can be purchased in hotels and tourist offices. The card also offers discounts at retail outlets, museums and other visitor attractions.
Bord Fáilte does operate a season extension bonus voucher scheme which offers a range of discounts on shopping, reduced admission charges and coach touring and day trip sightseeing concessions. Details and conditions of the various shopping discounts and admission concessions are a matter for Bord Fáilte in conjunction with participating properties. I have no direct responsibility in relation to the operation of the discount voucher scheme.
