The question is this, for me - will Irish Rail take the opportunity to add service Rosslare-Limerick and to request IF and Stena allow them to sell tickets on board their ferries for the extra services to pickup passengers who got to the ferry other than a sailrail or who didn't realise you could book through from Fishguard, or will they be so afraid that possible volcano activity will bar them from shutting the line that they will let the sister company mop up the business?

Not only will many of the ferry passengers be off LON-SNN flights, but some people might choose to try and get to DUB and SNN if those airports stay open more than UK/European ones for transatlantic. Enterprise could also see a bump in traffic depending on whether GLA and PIK can stay open for flights to Dublin or people divert to the Stranraer-Larne ferry.
