Hi,

I have a really basic question about the interrail card, since I have not done this before.

My question is: Are there any train companies in Europe where the interrail ticket is NOT valid, or is it valid in every company? I know about the supplements and reservation costs, and that the ticket is not valid on underground/metro etc. Are there any lists?

We will be traveling in UK, Holland, France, Belgium and Italy.

Thank you
Henrik

Hey there,

As far as i know is the Interrailticket also valid at the trains of Arriva, Syntus, Veolia and Connexxion
I don't have a experience my self cause i live in the Netherlands but traverlers from germany never have complained about it,
so i think its possible.
Also i have to say that de Controlis very poor on the nothern Arriva Lines, so in the province Friesland and Groningen

I hope this is a useful adition to this topic

Greetings from Leeuwarden
