G'day Fulton, BootsnAll loves European train travel. We love the convenience and efficiency, and how it gives us more of a sense of place than traveling by plane. And given the 21st century hassles that accompany any trip to an airport, we love trains even more.
We also love saving money, and that's why we're excited to finally be able to share our new European rail tool. It offers BootsnAll customers access to a unique partnership with the Italian rail system that includes some pretty sizable discounts on train tickets. You'll be able to search for and book train tickets anywhere in Europe, too, for travels throughout the continent.
So what's the big deal? - Huge discounts on Italy train tickets: the average discount found is 30% -- savings that can add up to lots of extra pizzas and gelato on your next trip!
- E-tickets: skip the lines, as long as your ticket is within Italy, you can print an eticket and not waste time waiting in line at the train station.
- Get only what you need: Do you need a ticket, reservation or both? You can buy point-to-point any or all of the above. Not sure what the difference is? Read Tickets vs Reservations.
- Check out all 6 reasons why we love the new Europe Rail Tool
Happy travels!
