Tren Italia vs. Italia Rail

Is there a problem with using the Italia Rail site? I like everyone else have been having trouble with the Tren Italia site.

TIA

Prices are much higher i believe than trenitalia - if you're talking about the site run by Wandrian Rail in the U.S. using the old CIT or Italian railways Eurail Tariff and Eurailpass outlet in the U.S. - once one of only three such official outlets along with RailEurope (French and Swiss railways) and DER (German railways) that could sell passes and tickets here. There are a few more now.

But i may be mixing it up with something else.

Thanks for the reply. I was talking about the

www.italiarail.com vs going with www.trenitalia.it

I was thinking it might be a price difference as you mentioned, but the italiarail seems more user friendly.

Anyone else? TIA

Hi M,

If you check the prices at the two sites, you will see that they are about the same, except that Italiarail charges S&H.

At Trenitalia you get an eml confirmation that is your ticket.
