My child will be 11 years 11 month when we are planning to start our journey. We are planning to buy 22 days ticket, during our journey she will turn 12 years. Should I book child ticket or youth ticket?

Child ticket, only the age from the start of the validity of your pass counts.

The important date is when you activate your pass. As long as the child is below 12 (even by one day) on the day you activate the passes then a child pass will be valid for the remaining validity period of the pass. 

Don’t forget to order the free child passes with your adult pass(es).

As long as on the first day of validity, your child has not turned 12 yet, she can use a free child pass.
