Discover Europe with great savings and easy booking

Born in 1997, Trainline is a tech company with the mission to make booking of train and bus tickets easier, reach new destinations and promote a more sustainable travel sector. We offer affordable solutions and travel information in real time, displaying routes, prices and timetables of more than 270 train and bus companies in 45 countries.

Three months in advance! It’s when most carriers release their tickets (apart from Eurostar – look for Eurostar tickets six months in advance). Want to get the best price for your journey? Book early. Prices normally go up closer to the departure date. Plus, you might not get seats together if you book late (which might be a bonus for the introverts out there).

It depends on the company the booking was made with and on the type of ticket purchased. If sale conditions allow it, you can easily cancel your booking online.

You can request a refund after canceling your booking, if allowed by the ticket terms and conditions. You can also receive a refund if your train is canceled, and in some cases of delays, by the train company.
