  • Do I need to change trains at the city names that are listed?

  • What do the point-to-point ticket prices include?
  • Do these prices include supplements, reservations, or sleeping accommodations?

  • Do I need to change trains at the city names that are listed?

    Not necessarily. These destination and intermediary cities are displayed for railpass and ticket purchasing purposes only. Please check the train schedules to determine where you need to change trains.

    Why does my RailSaver itinerary not show all the destinations that I entered?

    Your customized RailSaver itinerary will only show the destinations and segments that it can provide prices for. For example, RailSaver will hide segments in which you will be traveling by automobile.

    I prefer the cost savings of a 2nd Class railpass, but RailSaver is recommending 1st Class. Why?

    For travelers over the age of 26, many railpasses are only available in 1st class.

    Why do I sometimes use both railpasses and tickets for a trip from one city to another?

    Depending on your exact itinerary, it may be significantly cheaper to use combinations of railpasses and tickets to cover specific train rides.

    Are the prices for point-to-point tickets exactly what I would pay in Europe?

    RailSaver.com tells you what you should expect to pay for a point-to-point ticket at a train station in Europe. These prices are based on the base one-way fare and do not include reservation fees or supplements. While very accurate, there may be variations due to currency exchange fluctuations or last minute fare changes. Railsaver cannot guarantee that point-to-point fares will always be exact.

    What do the point-to-point ticket prices include?

    These prices are based on the base one-way fare and do not include reservation fees or supplements.

    Do these prices include supplements, reservations, or sleeping accommodations?

    No.

    Do these prices include locally advertised specials (such as Germany’s Happy Weekend or Good Night tickets)?

    No. RailSaver.com does not search for these types of specials that are advertised only in Europe. You should inquire about specials before purchasing your tickets.
