In contrast to other railway companies, there are no specific fares for youths or seniors available for ICE services. Instead, you can choose between three fare categories: 'Supersparpreis', 'Sparpreis' and 'Flexpreis' (as from 1 August 2018). These are available in 1st and 2nd class. There are also fares for children (under 15 years old) and passengers with reduced mobility.
Tip: when booking online, just indicate the number of passengers per age group and our booking system automatically gives you all the corresponding fares.
Seat reservation on ICE trains is optional, for a supplement of €6* per journey in addition to your ticket at the Supersparpreis or Sparpreis fare. If you have a Flexpreis ticket, however, seat reservation is free and automatically included when buying your ticket.
Children younger than 15 years old travel free of charge if they are accompanied by at least one parent or grandparent with either a Sparpreis or a Flexpreis ticket.
Children travelling alone:
Passengers with reduced mobility pay full fare and their companions travel free. Belgian wheelchair users must have a ‘free companion card’ from SNCB (the card number must be indicated on the companion's ticket).
