There’s no indication pro or against it in my opinion, nothing haas slipped. Last year it started on 22th December so it’d mean a later start date this year.

We can only wait and see...

There’s no harm in waiting to see if there’s a promotion. You can buy the pass on the day you will depart, and activate it straight away. (Although I might do it the day before!)

That’s what i thought but as  I need to reserve 4 people on Eurostar I need the pass before I do this - is that right - can I reserve seats before I actually have the pass?

Thank you and Merry Christmas/festive season! 

You can book passholder reservations on Eurostar before you buy the pass here https://www.b-europe.com/EN/Booking/Pass#TravelWish

Thanks.

If I’ve not got the pass yet, what do I do when the b-europe booking page asks me for the pass cover number?

Enter I11111111 or any pass number. They won't appear anywhere, the reservation is tied to your name.

You can also book on raileurope.com and then without any extra booking fees.

I think you meant Rail Europe ?

Oops, yes. Corrected.

Thank you Camilo.

Do the pass prices increase on Jan 1st and if so do you know by how much?

DB have already published the new prices. The prices increases vary and for the global passes they're between 1 and 9%.

Do you have a link to this? I still see the old document on their website

Thanks!

Thanks too ! Looks like the month continuous pass will be slightly cheaper (at least for youth) but it's rather an exception.

Thanks,

what’s the difference between 1.kl and 2.kl (I’m an English speaker),

It's 1st class and 2nd class.
