Review its fare conditions to see the options and any fees. Select "Cancellation options" to specify the changes you want to make and request a refund.

If you see an error when you try to cancel a pass it could be because you have activated the pass. For Interrail/Eurail passes, open the Eurail/Interrail Rail Planner app on your mobile device and deactivate your travel days. For Swiss Travel Pass Flex, you will need to deactivate your travel days on www.activateyourpass.com. Once all travel days have been deactivated you can try to cancel your pass again.

Select which pass you wish to cancel, and select "Calculate refund".

For passes, it is only possible to cancel the entire order. If you wish to cancel only one of the passenger of a group of several, you will need to cancel the entire group and buy new passes for the remaining travellers

Once you confirm your refund, we'll send an email confirming the details. You'll also see a note alongside the cancelled ticket. Your payment card will be credited immediately and the refund will show in your account within a few days.
