Interrail Global Pass prices start at €212 for a youth 2nd class pass and €283 for an adult 2nd class pass. The pass is only one part of the budget: reservations, sleepers, accommodation, food, and local transport can add more.
Youth, 2nd class, 4 travel days within 1 month.
Adult, 2nd class, 7 travel days within 1 month.
Children aged 0-11 can travel free when properly added with an eligible adult, youth aged 18+, or senior.
The exact price depends on age group, travel class, and whether you choose a Flexi Pass or Continuous Pass. Children aged 0-11 can travel free with a Child Pass when accompanied under the official rules, but reservations for seats or beds can still cost extra.
This guide covers the Interrail Global Pass. One Country Pass prices vary by country, so treat those as a separate calculation.
You get a set number of travel days inside a wider validity window, such as 7 travel days within 1 month. Use it when you plan to stay several nights in each city.
You can travel every day during the pass validity, such as 15 days in a row or 1 month in a row. Use it when you expect frequent travel days.
A 2nd class pass is valid only in 2nd class. A 1st class pass is valid in both 1st and 2nd class carriages where those classes are available.
Youth covers ages 12-27, Adult covers 28-59, Senior covers 60+, and children aged 0-11 can travel free under the child-pass rules.
These are the EUR prices supplied from the official Interrail Global Pass page for Youth, Adult, and Senior travellers. Prices and promotions can change, so confirm the final checkout price before buying.

Think of the pass as your rail travel entitlement on participating networks, not as an all-inclusive trip package.
This is where many Interrail budgets go wrong. The pass is flexible, but not every train is reservation-free.
Start with the pass, then add the travel choices that are easy to forget. A low pass price can become expensive if the route relies on reservation-heavy trains.
Your practical budget is the pass price plus reservations, night-train beds, accommodation, food, lockers, city transport, activities, insurance, and any point-to-point tickets you buy outside the pass.
The cheapest listed Global Pass is the Youth 2nd class 4 days within 1 month pass at €212. The cheapest Adult 2nd class pass is €283.
Children aged 0-11 can travel free when added correctly with an eligible accompanying adult, youth aged 18 or older, or senior. Seat or bed reservations can still cost extra.
No. Many regional trains do not need reservations, but high-speed trains and night trains often require paid reservations in addition to the pass.
1st class can be worth it if you value quieter carriages, more space, and access to 1st class where available. For budget trips, 2nd class is usually the better value.
Choose a Flexi Pass if you have several city stays and only travel on selected days. Choose a Continuous Pass if you expect to travel nearly every day during the pass period.
A Global Pass includes one outbound and one inbound journey in your country of residence on travel days. Extra domestic trips usually need separate tickets.
