Please reply fast I am leaving tomorrow

I have a 15-day Flexi Pass, and I need clarification on how many days will be counted for my upcoming journey.

I will be leaving from Rome at 5:10 AM to Milan and plan to book a train from Milan at 18:10 PM, which will drop me in Prague at 10:39 AM on 27 February 2025.

This journey requires me to transfer at Zürich HB at 21:40 on 26 February and then take another train from Linz Hbf to Prague, arriving at 6:52 AM on 27 February.

Could you please confirm whether this journey will count as one day or two days of travel on my Flexi Pass?

I have attached an image of my travel details for reference. Thank you so much for your help!

Hello ​@ARJUN 

You will need two days, the second one for the journey Linz - Prague.

This journey will use 2 travel days. The first travel day will get you as far as Linz. The second one will cover Linz-Prague.

You can board any train and as many trains as you like during your travel day before midnight even if you will stay on that train after midnight (in your case until 6am in Linz). But getting another train on the next day triggers another travel day.

You can avoid using another travel day by getting a regular ticket. It looks like that would be only 19€ on OEBB right now (for Linz-Prague).

Alternatively book the direct Zurich-Prague night train: 54€ couchette, 76€ sleeper (good value!). Only one pass day required then. Leave Milan at 3pm.

In any case do leave Milan earlier than planned. 13 min is not a safe enough margin before a once daily night train.
