Railpass discount

[GoJoel]

Sorry for the probable 100th repeat of a basic question, but does it seem like the search option is insufficient? No problem though, I appreciate those who maintain these boards and those who patiently reply to threads.

My questions are:
1.) how much is the discount for the Eurostar from London to Paris? and
2.) is there a discount on the ferry from Bari/Brindisi to Patras, Greece?

I've had a hard time finding actual numbers on the raileurope website. Thanks!

GoJoel, I'll see if I can answer your questions (answered in the same order):

(1.) "When your pass is valid in Belgium or France, EuroStar offers approximately 50% discount on full 1st and 2nd class fares. The Pass Holder 1st class reduction is also available with a 2nd class Youth Pass. In Europe bookings, which are compulsory, can be made in Great Britain, France, Belgium or via any EuroStar sales outlet. Please note that space at the reduced rate is limited and subject to availability."

(2.) "50% reduction on the standard passenger fares and cabin fares on the crossings from Brindisi to Patras (Greece), operated by HML (Hellenic Meditteranean Lines). No reduction on deluxe cabins. Ferries operate from mid-June to mid-September."

The above information excerpted from the Eurail Traveler's Guide 2006. Hope this helps.

Cheers!!!

Thanks, Eagle. That's what I needed!
