    back to the point-o-purchase. During your travels, your pass is like

    cash guard it accordingly! InterRail does not grant any reund

    or lost, stolen or partially used passes. Travel insurance is highly

    recommended.

    Reservations

    Although your InterRail Pass gives you access to rail

    travel in the participating countries, certain trains such

    as high-speed, international and night trains usually

    require you to reserve a seat and pay an extra ee. Seats

    on such trains can be in high demand, especially during

    the summer holiday months o July and August. Note

    also that the number o seats allocated to InterRail Pass

    holders can be limited. To avoid disappointment, advance

    booking is strongly recommended. Most trains can be

    booked up to 3 months in advance. Please note, when

    seats or pass holders have been sold out you may have to

    purchase a ull are ticket or travel on a diferent day or at

    a diferent time.

    How to use your InterRail Global Pass

    When can I start?

    You can start your rst trip anytime ater 00.00 hours on the rst

    day your pass is valid. You must nish your last trip by midnight

    (24.00 hours) on the last day o validity.

    Record your journeys

    Inside your InterRail Global Pass cover you will nd a old-out Travel

    Report and Questionnaire. You are required to ll in (in blue or black

    ink) the details o each journey you take on the Travel Report beore

    boarding your train. Ticket inspectors will ask to see this document

    during your travels and you can be ned up to EUR 50 i your Travel

    Report is incomplete.

    We hope youll take time to send us your completed Travel Report &

    Questionnaire ater you nished travelling. I you do, well send you a

    great InterRail souvenir (see page 27 or details).

    How oten can I travel?

    The number o days on which you can travel depends on whether it

    is a Flexi pass or a Continuous pass. InterRail Global Passes valid

    or 22 days or 1 month are Continuous passes. InterRail Global Passes

    valid or 5 or 10 days within a longer period o time are exi passes.

    Flexi Passes can only be used or a certain number o travel

    days within a set period. I you have a exi pass, a travel calendar

    will be printed on your ticket.

    Continuous Passes can be used unlimited (every day) during theperiod in which the pass is valid.

    Any section marked with a applies to exi pass holders only.

    and type o train, as well as the date o purchase and/or travel.

    ** In case seats or InterRail Pass holders are sold out, you may be asked

    to buy a normal ticket. I this happens you could always consider taking

    a diferent train, or travelling on a diferent date.

    Quality trains that ofer special amenities (such as sleepers) or which

    are aster than conventional trains, oten require a reservation at

    extra cost. The surcharge or this includes the compulsory seat

    reservation and sometimes also either a meal aboard the train or

    other perks. For an overview o trains that require a reservation

    please see the table on the reverse o the InterRail map.

    Filling in the Travel Calendar

    When travelling with a exi pass it is important that you record the

    date o each journey in the Travel Calendar (printed on the pass). You

    must write in ink and its imperative to do this beore boarding the

    train. Not doing so is the same as travelling without a ticket, which

    means you risk a hety fne. The month should be written below theday; i.e. 18th October is18

    10(see example). Be very careul flling in the

    date. I you make a mistake you cannot correct it as this could be

    interpreted as raud. I you make a mistake you will have to enter the

    correct date in the next travel day box and consequently lose a travel

    day.

    Travelling by night train

    For passes with exible travel days there are 2 possibilities or

    travelling by night train:

    1. In the event that your train departs beore 19.00 hours, you need

    to use 2 travel days (ll in the day o departure and the day o

    arrival)

    or

    2. I youre travelling on a direct night train or boat that departs

    ater 19.00 hours, you may take advantage o a special rule which

    allows you to use just one o your travel days. I your rst trip o

    the day is on a direct overnight train departing ater 19:00 hours,

    enter the ollowing days date (i.e. the date o arrival) in the calen-

    dar box. For example: i, on 2nd August, you take the direct night

    train rom Prague to Budapest departing at 21.53 hours; you only

    have to ll out 3rd August in the travel calendar. When travelling

    by night boat (Superast or Blue star Ferries) you can ll in either

    the day o departure or the day o arrival. Please note that you

    cannot start travelling beore the rst day o validity on your pass.

    Train reservations and additional costs

    To ensure you have a seat, it is possible to make a reservation or

    most trains. For certain European trains, such as the high-speed,

    international or night trains, reservations are compulsory. To nd out

    whether reservations are compulsory, check an online timetable, orenquire with your travel agent or at a railway station.

    On some trains the number o seats available or InterRail Pass

    holders may be limited (reservation is subject to availability), so you

    should make reservations as early as possible.** Reservations can be

    made at most major train stations. The costs or a reservation are not

    included in your pass and can vary widely depending on the country

    What to expect while travelling

    1st or 2nd class on the train

    Depending on your type o InterRail Pass, you are allowed to travel

    in either 1st or 2nd class. I you have a 1st class pass, you are not

    entitled to a reund i you travel 2nd class. In order to travel in 1stclass with a 2nd class pass, you must pay the diference in are. Please

    note that some trains do not have 1st class cars, and on ships there is

    generally no class distinction.

    Will there be ood on board?

    Many long-distance trains have ull-service restaurant cars ofering

    breakast, lunch and dinner. Bufet and bar cars sell light meals

    throughout the trip, and vendors with ood trolleys oten pass

    through the train selling beverages and snacks. Enquire at the station

    whether the train you want to take has a bufet or restaurant car.

    Trains in Europe

    There is a diverse range o train types in Europe, each

    ofering a unique and interesting travel experience.

    High-speed trainsWant to get there really ast? How does up to 300 kph sound?

    Many high-speed services criss-cross Europe, all ofering comortable

    1st and 2nd class cars and catering.

    Other day trains

    There is also a ull schedule o domestic and international trains run-

    ning at regular speed that can get you to your destination quickly.

    These are generally called Intercity (IC) or EuroCity (EC) trains. Others,

    such as Direct, Interregio or Express trains, make more requent stops

    along the way.

    Legendary scenic rail lines

    Shimmering lakes, plunging gorges, snow-capped mountains,

    coastal splendours Europe abounds with picturesque, back-

    country routes that boast breathtaking scenery. Try the line between

    Perpignan and La Tour de Carol in France or Italys Ventimiglia to

    Cuneo train. There are also legendary tourist lines that dot Europes

    landscape. InterRail Passes are accepted on many o these trains or

    entitle you to a discount.

    Night trains

    arriving at your destination the next morning relaxed, rereshed

    and ready or a day o sightseeing. Night trains serve Europes

    major cities and ofer a variety o sleeping accommodations. Most

    overnight trains ofer either sleepers or couchettes, and some also

    ofer seats. Prices vary according to the amount o comort and

    privacy. I youre on a budget, consider a couchette (rom 15 to 69) or a seat (rom 5). Couchettes are mixed compartments

    (men and women together), with our open bunks in 1st class and

    our or six open bunks in 2nd class. A sheet, blanket and pillow are

    provided, but be prepared to sleep in your day clothes. Seats are

    available on selected trains, and are generally only available in

    2nd class.

    For maximum comort and privacy, reserve a 1st (one or two

    passengers) or 2nd class (two or three passengers) compartment.

    These compartments usually have a wash basin. Toilet acilities can

    be ound down the corridor. The costs or sleepers is, o course,higher (rom 30 to 197).

    Train Station Smarts & Tips

    Check your station!

    Many larger cities have multiple train stations, and trains do not

    always stop at them all. Double check exactly which station you

    need to depart rom so you dont miss your train. I there is a specicstation in a city you want to arrive at, also check that the train youre

    taking does stop there.

    Train schedule and platorm inormation

    Most European railways have a website where you can consult

    train schedules and platorm inormation. The website

    www.railpassenger.ino/ also ofers a lot o inormation that can

    help you plan your journey.

    Baggage

    Most major railway stations have baggage carts, let-luggage o ces

    or coin-operated lockers or storage o your luggage. Aboard the

    train, luggage racks are ound above seats or at the end o the car,

    but do keep an eye on your baggage as the railway is not responsible

    or lost or stolen bags.

    Getting on, o and seating on trains

    Youve checked the schedule and know the departure track, now

    youre ready to board! I youve made a reservation, youll nd the car

    and seat number printed on the ticket. Displays on platorms at some

    stations show the composition o long-distance and overnight trains,

    and indicate where your car will stop on the platorm. Be ready to

    board the train the minute it arrives; station stops are oten very short.

    You can see i a car is 1st or 2nd class by the numbers posted near the

    trains door or on a window (some trains have both classes in one car).

    Pay close attention to destination displays and/or car numbers near

    the door. Trains can be split and sent in diferent directions, so make

    sure the car youre in is going where you want to go.

    Are we there yet?

    Station stops arent always announced, or may be announced in a

    oreign language you dont understand. Take note o your scheduled

    arrival time and the names o the last stations beore your stop so

    youll be prepared to exit the train when it arrives at your destination.

    Station names are clearly visible at platorms.

    Dream on

    On night trains, customs and passport checks are oten conducted

    while you are sleeping, so it is common practice or the car

    attendant to collect your InterRail Pass and passport (or travel ID)

    or border ormalities. The documents will be returned to you in the

    morning and you will enjoy an uninterrupted nights sleep.
