Clarification on the 4-day Greek Island Pass

A

Hello,

Slightly confused about two things, if someone can help..

First, I see posts from 9-10 months ago saying how you need to reserve a ferry ticket through email. Is this still true in 2022? There are online ferry websites of companies that cover the pass that offer tickets where you can enter a discount if you have Interrail pass, directly while buying the ferry ticket (like 20-30%). However, I didn’t see the option for the travel day pass discount.

Also if someone can answer, this page here says that the 4-day travel pass only cover “Four FREE domestic trips” for Blue Star Ferries, not 4 days. I’m not sure which is true, or if I’m reading it wrong or if it’s a typo.

It is 4 days indeed so we've adjusted it on the page. Thanks for flagging rvdborgt and apologies for the late clarification and confusion caused, AlexMitch. Cheers,

The Greek Islands pass uses travel days:

About booking: just send them an e-mail to ask if they have online booking for Interrail pass holders.

Please ask questions in the community and not via a private message. That's the quickest way to get a response. I don't work for Eurail/Interrail.

The longer run ferries only go 1/day in general. There may be more to populair islands-but then its likely a ferry of another comp that does not take these passes

Are you sure about that? Because the page I linked to says “trips”, not days.

That may be true, but I was thinking, since these passes include both Minoan Lines and Blue Star Ferries maybe we can combined them to make trips across multiple islands, to Kalymnos, for example.

@Magdalena @Marion Am I right that this page is incorrect in suggesting that the Greek Island pass has 4 trips rather than 4 travel days?

Seems like no one knows for sure. I saw here that it’s probably 4 days, but I went ahead and sent an email to Attica group.
