Social Responsibility

Trains emit less than 11 pounds of CO2 per 62 passenger miles compared to planes (50 pounds) and cars (about 40 pounds). This way, Eurail travelers can reduce their individual carbon footprints.

A great way to compare the energy consumption for your trip, ecopassenger.org lets you check emissions and environmental impact per transport type.

We aim for sustainability in our physical products too: Eurail Passes and travel packs are made of recycled materials.

We're owned by European railway and ferry companies. Through their commitment to renewable energy sources and the reduction of CO2 emissions, we're able to support Green Travel and a healthier planet.

20% of our employees commute by train, 67% cycle or work from home, and only 3% drive to work.

As an e-commerce company we avoid waste of print paper and recycle too. We have a clean desk policy - no rubbish!

We invest heavily in training, to send our employees on the right track, and offer flexible working hours.

We work with environmentally responsible, ISO14001 certified fulfillment centers, also members of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition. Through this, we ensure Eurail Passes meet industry standards.

We sponsor social initiatives including AEGEE-Europe's Europe on Track project. By providing complimentary train passes to campaigners, we can help them spread awareness of important issues.
