Europe Bound Student & Youth Travel Discounts
       
 
.

.

There is an abundance of youth/student discounts for the Europe traveler who is enterprising enough to search them out.

 

Who Qualifies for these Savings? 

Most of the youth or student discounts require you be under the age of 24-26 years at the time of travel. Many companies will want verification that you are the "correct" age for their product.

A number of these travel bargains require that you are a full time student or educator and don't care what age you are. You will probably need to provide verification of your student or teacher/faculty status such as a student ID and/or a letter from your college registrar's office stating your full-time student status. Give yourself plenty of time to gather the information/documents they may require. It is well worth it to spend time reading the fine print!

Parents will be happy to discover that their children under 12 years are generally half price on many types of transportation and their teens qualify for youth prices. It is a good idea for students of any age to bring the school ID to Europe. This can get you discounts on some sight admission tickets.

The majority of these bargains need to be purchased before you leave home such as air and rail passes as well as hostel and discount cards. There are some transportation deals only available in Europe.
