Last Chance to Get a Free Travel Day With the Eurail Selectpass!

December 21, 2006

    UTRECHT, Netherlands, Dec. 21 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ --
There are just less 
than a couple of weeks left to take advantage of Eurail's
special end of year 
offer.

    The Eurail Group G.I.E. is offering an extra day of
rail travel on all 6-
, 8- or 10- day Eurail Selectpasses purchased by 31st
December. The first day 
of travel must occur within 6 months of purchase, so you
can buy now and 
travel in 2007. 

    The Eurail Selectpass is one of Eurail's most popular
and flexible of 
rail passes as it allows customers to practically tailor
make their own pass. 
Travellers select 3, 4 or 5 adjoining countries of their
choice and the 
number of days they wish to travel. Adjoining countries can
also be linked by 
Eurail's bonus partner shipping lines, resulting in some
unexpected but 
interesting combinations like France and Ireland, Germany
and Sweden and 
Spain and Italy.  With 22 countries to choose from there
are over 750 
possible combinations, giving customers true freedom and
flexibility!

    "This is a great offer for people wanting to see a
bit more of Europe for 
less," said Ana Dias e Seixas, Eurail's Marketing
Manager. "Whilst Eurail 
Selectpasses are already excellent value, this special
offer is giving our 
customers even more freedom to explore Europe by
rail."  

    Taking the train is the easiest, most relaxed way to
experience Europe. 
Europe's rail network is extensive and trains are frequent,
taking travellers 
from city centre to city centre quickly and efficiently,
avoiding long check-
in queues and waits at airports or driving and parking
hassles. One of the 
main advantages of taking the train is that you actually
get to see the 
country you're travelling through, whether it's a bustling
city or tranquil 
countryside, the train is your window on Europe's diverse
scenery and 
cultures.

    The EURAIL Group comprises 27 railways and shipping
lines, as well as 
several bonus partners.  For more information about Eurail
