Need help booking on bahn.com
 
I've been trying to book a German Rail Twin Pass on www.bahn.com - 5 days, 2nd class. Even though the website lshows 2nd clas as an option, only 1st class comes up as a choice Am I to assume that only 1st class is offered for this particular pass?.
Does anyone out there have experience with this website and can give advice? Thanks.

I clicked through and it worked fine - offering me a 2nd class pass

Start here;

http://www.bahn.com/i/view/overseas/...railpass.shtml

Click the orange button "Book Your German Rail Pass Here"
Click the link "German Rail Pass"
Click the link "German Rail Pass for Adults (>25years)"
Click the link "Travelling in 2nd Class"
Click "German Rail Pass for 5 Days" or "In the Basket" (next to the 217 Euro 5 day pass price), or "Details"

Aramis,
Thank you for your reply. I'm pretty sure I followed your instructions, but the end result was 217 euro each for a total of 434. I can get a first class twin for 444. I was hoping to find a 2nd class twin. Where did I go wrong?

You are correct - I missed the fact that you were looking for a twin pass - the DB site is not displaying or permitting any information to come up when you select that link. Strange.

I found another page on DB that said the cost should be 323 Euros

You might have to email them and ask for help.

Aramis, Thanks for checking on this for me. It might be easier just to book with Rail Europe for a few dollars more. I've got time to think about it and in the meantime, maybe DB will fix their problem.
