UTRECHT--28 Nov--PRNewswire-AsiaNet/InfoQuest The EURAIL GROUP G.I.E. is offering its customers even more choice in European rail travel by increasing its product range to include new passes and country combinations from 2007. (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20061127/235893 ) Eurail's popular National Pass range, offering travellers the possibility to discover a single country in depth, will have more countries in its portfolio with Benelux (Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxemburg), Croatia, Ireland, Italy and Portugal available from January 1, thereby increasing the total number of passes to 15. In addition, the Eurail Regional Pass, created three years ago to allow unlimited travel in two bordering countries, will also have new countries combinations on offer. In 2007, customers will be able to choose Austria and Hungary or Italy and Spain in addition to the 16 other passes already available. "Eurail is adapting its pass range to match the way many overseas visitors travel today," says Rene de Groot, Eurail's Managing Director. "With holidays abroad getting shorter and more frequent, many travellers have less time for extended journeys throughout Europe, and our National and Regional passes will allow them to comfortably explore one or two countries in depth in one trip.By adding these pass options, we are offering our customers increasingly more choice and value for money." In addition to the Eurail National and Regional Passes, Eurail continues to offer the Eurail Select Pass, valid for 3, 4 or 5 bordering countries chosen by the traveller, as well as the original Eurailpass (renamed to Eurail Global Pass), covering a total of 18 countries, for people wishing to discover as much of Europe as possible. The EURAIL Group comprises 27 railways and shipping lines, as well as several bonus partners. For more information about Eurail and rail travel in Europe, go to http://www.Eurail.com .
