Purchaseable tickets range from five business days to a month, allowing almost all tickets to use trains on at any moment (depending on the price) with a limit of 2 weeks to a month. For example, the cheapest pass allows you to use the train for five days under 15.
How much will it cost with the discount?
The ticket price fluctuates, of course, depending on the days purchased, but also on the age of the buyer. Until now, the cheapest option was five days for those under 26, which cost €200.
