Hello lovely people,
I am planning to travel in the following countries for about 18-20 days in end of May: Germany (i start here) - Switzerland - Italy - France - Belgium - End in Germany. I am planning to buy 4 global passes as i feel it is convenient to have a flexibility with the trains to be boarded. However, i have some questions that i wish to be clarified before buying these passes.
Question 1: How does the boarding a train work? Can i simply board any train from one place to other (regional or high speed train)? or is it required to book the tickets on some specific website or any app to avail the pass? (of course i understand a seat reservation has to be made separately otherwise, seat is not guaranteed ). The question is about boarding the train and what to do if ticket controller appears and asks for ticket. Can i simply show the pass on my mobile?
Question 2: Does this train include the city metro or trams also? If it does, the same question for boarding
Question 3: If i buy 15 days in 2 months pass as i may be staying in one place for 2 or more days, How do i update the travel days in Global pass? It is somewhat related to question 1, but I want to clarify if a journey needs to be updated on a certain website or an app.
I actually read some threads already and having such a scattered information has confused me a lot. I just want clear answers before spending about 2000 Euros on this.
Thanks and Have a nice day :)
