Hi,
how much in advance should I buy my InterRail ticket?
I'm from Slovakia and plan to start travelling around Sept 6th.
How long do you think it will take from placing my order to finally get my ticket?

Thank you!

you can buy your pass even 5 minute before of depart your train! there is no rule.

however, you have to take into account that sometimes you will need your pass to buy reservation and only this is can be problem, nothing more.

Hej,

if you want to support the railcc project, please buy your ticket online at our partner :arr: [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux]

Shipping time with free standard shipping is between [b]3 - 7 business days[/b], express delivery would cost extra (15€) but is within a maximum of 3 business days.

what do you mean with 5 minutes before, don't you need like a paper-pass witch they'll send you?

so for me should it be possible to start the day after tomorrow?

so the paper pass is similarly to normal ticket. if you planning start on 6th sept you can buy it also on 6th sept (if you do not need it for make reservation(like in Italy i.e.))

Also pay attention: at some smaller stations they are sometimes not used to sell Interrail passes. Always check if you got a correct printed ticket (country of residence, starting date, ...) with all the additional things you need: extra sheet to fill in your travel journeys...
I got this summer already several emails of travellers who didn't bought their ticket here at railcc but somewhere else and got wrong printed tickets. :o
