Have you bought an Interrail pass for this summer to train through Europe? Then the Interrail iPhone app is indispensable. This is all you can do with it.
Comprehensive journey planner for Interrail
With an Interrail pass you can travel all over Europe by train. The pass is valid in many European countries and on many train networks, making it easy to move from city to city. The accompanying iPhone app makes that just that little bit easier.
A must-have feature in the Interrail app is the journey planner. This allows you to quickly find the train connection that takes you where you need to be. The journey is clearly displayed in a list, with departure and arrival times. You can also opt for a map view, where you see your route through the country displayed.
Can be used offline
The trip planner also offers some handy filters specific to travelers with an Interrail pass. For example, when looking for a train journey, you can choose trains that do not require a reservation, so that you can just board. You can also choose to exclude train carriers that do not accept Interrail. The entire route planner can also be used offline, so you can plan your trip even without range.
Once you’ve found a train trip that fits your schedule, save it with one tap in the ‘My Trip’ section of the app. All your saved journeys are collected there, you can view the complete route on a map and you can check whether you have already checked in. If it is necessary to reserve a seat, the app links directly to the correct web page of the carrier, so that you can arrange that immediately.
Lots of extra information
In addition, the app offers a lot of information about your Interrail pass. This way you can read per country which advantages it all offers. This often goes a lot further than just trains in the country’s largest rail operator. In all countries you also get a discount on other forms of transport, such as ferry crossings. In addition, you can save on activities and in many countries hotel chains offer discounts if you have an Interrail card.
The app also clearly indicates per country which conditions are attached to your Interrail pass. Wherever you travel in Europe, you can always quickly check whether a particular carrier is participating in Interrail. You will also find a lot of practical information about traveling in the different countries. From the location of lockers at train stations to bus transport to the major airports.
