Hello everybody!

I have a question.I have the EU disability card (100% + need of companion).
I bought a global pass and I received a second one for free for my companion (thank you eurail!).

Now, I am trying to book Rome - Wien, the night train of the 31st of July.

If I try to use the option “only reservation”, there are no tickets available.
So I search the booking adding the discout “eurorail pass” on the OBB account.

I have this price:
 


After this, I tried adding also the EU disability card and free companion option:
 



I did the search without adding a second passenger with global pass 
(It adds automatically a seat for the companion).
With this setting I have this price:
 


This option (1 global pass + eu disability card + companion) is cheaper than using 2 global pass.
My question is...can I do that? 
Can I do that even if I asked a second global pass for my companion?

I hope somebody can clarify it.

Thanks!

Marco

If your EU disability card states that you need a companion, then this should be OK.

In addition, think about whether you really want a seat, or rather a couchette.

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.

Yes, of course, if not it would be a false statement.
