Notes
To Begin Travel On Your Pass
Have your pass validated within 3 months of issue and before your first day of use. To validate your pass, present your passport and your pass to a railway official at the ticket window in the train station (not the conductor) who will enter the first and last date of your travel period. This must be done before boarding a train for the first time.
Please do not write on or fill in any part of your pass before it has been validated.
As You Travel On Your Pass
Before boarding the first train or ferry of each day, write the date in ink, in the appropriate box on your pass.
Seat Reservations and Overnight Travel
A pass allows the boarding of a train or boat, but does not guarantee a seat. Seat reservations are optional for most trains but are mandatory for all TGV, Thalys, Cisalpino, AVE, Pendolino, ETR 500 and X2000 trains and selected EuroCity and InterCity trains and for all sleepers and couchettes. Reservations are subject to availability so reserve in advance. Reservations for all seats, sleepers, couchettes and trains noted above are subject to an additional fee for pass and ticket holders. Seat reservations, sleepers and couchettes can normally be purchased from Europe Express at the same time that you buy your pass. If you are booking through our website, please email your reservation request. Otherwise, Please request all rail reservations by phone when booking your rail pass. Travel on certain high-speed trains (such as the X2000 in Sweden, ETR in Italy, AVE in Spain, Thalys and Eurostar) require a supplement.
Rail Pass Reservations
Unless noted in your reservation, rail passes do not include seat reservations. Overnight trains, specialty trains and most high speed trains require seat reservations, which can be added at an additional cost.
Once a rail pass has been confirmed change and supplier fees will apply.
