Youth Passes:

Youth Passes are available to travelers who are under the age of 26 on their first day of travel. Youth pass holders are entitled to discounted 2nd class travel for the duration of their passes. This is the preferred way to travel for students and young adults. Travelers can meet other travelers, compare experiences, get advice and form friendships; all while traveling Europe in a safe and comfortable environment. Older adults, tourists and businessmen tend to travel in the quieter 1st class cars.
