Interrail Discount with StenaLine

Hi,

quick question : How does the discount on StenaLine ferrys work? I want to take the Göteborg to Kiel ferry in mid-July, mid-Trip. The Interrail-website states “Save a travel day on your Pass when travelling with Stena Line. This benefit can be used with a valid Pass even if your travel days are over.”. Does that mean it can only be used when having an active pass day or if all days are used, but the pass is still valid? Cuz I wanna be using it mid-trip (Not all days are used up) without using a day of the pass!

 

Thanks for the help!

 

With the best regards!

You can use that discount during the active period of you global pass(the 1 month or 2 month you have to use your days on a flex pass). But you dont need to activate a day to use the ferry with the Discount.

So yes you can use it like you are planning to.

It’s always worth looking at normal fares and special offers, don’t rely on the small interrail discount being the cheapest.

Stena UK/IRL have a flash sale on at the present, there may be similar for the Northern European/Baltic routes.

Thanks for the advice! But I already booked this ferry. Just wanted to make sure ;)…… I actually checked for offers, but there were none. I did however booked over the Swedish website instead of the German to avoid StenaLine automatic currency conversions. So paying in kr instead of € saved me about 25€ on top, so with Interrail-Discount (260kr/about 24€) - not so bad.

350€ total for two people with standard cabin w/ window and breakfast still outrageous, but I just love ferrys ;)!
