VY busses in Norway - is the Interrail pass valid?


Karin Kroyer

Hi Community,
due to the pandemic, trains between Norway and Sweden are not operating, at least not on the days I need. Instead, the VY company offers busses between Oslo and Goteborg respectively Karlstad. Is the Interrail pass valid for these busses? 
The answer is relevant for me, since this decides how much travel days I need. I am grateful for every answer!

If Vy is offering these buses as rail replacement buses, then very probably Interrail is valid. But checking doesn't hurt.

Hi,

I asked Vy if the Interrail Pass is valid on their buses from Sweden into Norway.

This is the answer I got:

“I am sorry but the Interrail Global Pass can not be used on Bus4you/ Vy Ekspress buses.”

So now we know...

Do let Vy know that it's not very passenger-friendly to offer train replacement services in which (some?) train tickets are not valid. You never know, they might change their mind if enough people complain.
