Flexi vs Continuous
Two types of Eurail passes are available, each with their own obvious advantages. Flexi passes let you choose a specific number of days on which you travel during the validity of the pass. For example, if you purchase a Global Pass – choose 10 days within 2 months, you may travel on any 10 days within the specified 2-month period. Travel days do not have to be consecutive and you are free to decide during your trip precisely when you use them.
Continuous passes allow unlimited travel on any trains through the entirety of the period the pass is valid. Continuous passes are more expensive than flexi passes but afford the freedom of travelling whenever you choose. Flexi passes also vary in the number of travel days and the period of validity between each pass and country, so choose your pass carefully. All Eurail passes are available as a flexi pass.
