Supplements domestic trains

High quality trains, such as trains with special services or trains that are faster than conventional trains, often require a supplement. With a Eurail Pass you pay a special price (Pass holder fare) which varies depending on the kind of train and the service offered. The supplement includes the compulsory seat reservation and sometimes also a meal aboard the train or other amenities. Please note that the number of seats available at the special Pass holder fare is limited. Advance booking is highly recommended! Below you will find an overview of supplements.
