This regulation does not include what is stipulated in the General Terms and Conditions of Transport Contracts of Renfe Viajeros (Renfe Passengers).
The Interrail pass will be presented along with an ID card with photograph to any authorised agent who requests it; failure to comply with this requirement will mean that the passenger will be deemed to travelling without a ticket.
Interrail is valid for the class indicated on the pass. With a 2nd class pass you can travel in 1st class, paying the price difference, at the full fare.
Flexible pass holders must indicate the date of travel before starting the journey in the corresponding box; it must be written with black or blue permanent pen, in the form (dd/mm), for example, May 7 = 07/05.
The trip is valid from midnight of the chosen day. If you start the journey on a direct night train departing after 7.00 p.m. and arriving after 4.00 a.m., only the date of the day of departure must be shown. The same process applies when travelling by ferry, included in the Pass.
No pass can be used before midnight on the first day of validity; the right to travel expires at midnight on the last day of validity.
The pass will be presented stapled on a cover, which describes the main points of the conditions for use, together with a form for the registration of the Global Pass holder details and a Travel Journal that must be completed with the information regarding the journeys, which will be checked by the control staff. Once the trips have been used up, the passenger is required to send the pass free of charge to the address indicated on the cover to check its detailed use. Subsequently, the passenger can recover the pass, if requested, by also receiving at his address a gift from Interrail.
The following will be considered as fraud: travelling with a pass with the altered date, showing a photocopy instead of the original, the pass being used by a different person or travelling outside the validity period.
For trains or ferries that so require, the seat reservation, lying seat supplement, cabin use in shipping companies, port fee, etc. must be purchased, for this it will be essential to present the pass that is valid on the date of travel requested.

If they are unable to present any of the documents indicated at the boarding control, and the customer wishes to travel by train, they will be told that they must acquire the corresponding ticket as they do not have a valid ticket to travel.
If the passenger cannot provide any of the above documents on the train, they will be considered as a passenger without a valid ticket to travel.
Passengers will be responsible for consulting and satisfying the requirements regarding the personal and transport documentation required for their trip by plane, which may vary depending on their nationality, age, reason for travel, as well as the countries of origin and destination. This control will only be carried out by Iberia.
The connection of passengers under this intermodal ticket is guaranteed, pursuant to the terms provided in these conditions:
In case of a delay in one of the services, if the passenger is unable to use the leg of the other service, the latter company shall facilitate the trip contracted at no additional cost using the means it deems appropriate.
Should the customer fail to board the train connection as a result of an incident in the aeroplane service, Renfe will provide a new reservation on the first train with available seats at no additional cost. The new reservation will be made in the same class or a higher class, depending on seat availability.
In case the passenger misses the connection, the passenger will be entitled to receive assistance with regards to transport, accommodation, meals, etc., as established in the air transport regulations.

Renfe Viajeros' (Renfe Passengers) commercial offer establishes special conditions for transfers with guaranteed connections, with a single ticket and competitive prices for passengers, as established in the Integrated Ticket between different national routes and departure and arrival stations.
In addition, the connection will be guaranteed for passengers who have purchased an Integrated Ticket, provided that the passenger has the tickets covering the journey from the departure and arrival stations, including all legs of the journey, and that there is a period of time of at least 60 minutes (when changing to a different train at the same station) or of at least 90 minutes (when changing to a different train between two stations in the same municipality) between the theoretical time of arrival of the inbound train and the time of departure of the outbound train.
Tickets purchased independently for each leg of the journey will be classified as a different transport contract and the connection will not be guaranteed if the above requirement is not met.
The guaranteed connection is not offered on AVLO, Cercanías (Commuter) and Metric Gauge trains, nor between these and other services.
Passengers with a guaranteed connection ticket must make their own way between stations in the same city, except where there is a Renfe train or alternative service, such as in Valencia, where tickets will be valid for the journey between both stations.
If a connection is lost due to failure by Renfe Viajeros, passengers will have the right to a free ticket for the next train, in addition to compensation for delayed arrival at their destination. If passengers decide to abandon their onward journey, their return journey to their departure station will be free and they will receive a refund of the ticket price.
In order to benefit from a guaranteed connection, passengers must have their tickets on them from their departure until their final destination for each journey leg.

CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS
The conditions for changes or cancellations will be those set specifically for the applied fares for the tickets.
Passengers need to show their tickets alongside valid documents proving they are eligible for any discounts, and keep them until the end of the journey. In addition, they must have their identity document with them.
This regulation regulates how passengers who, for reasons not attributable to Renfe, miss their train at the station at which their trip begins are offered the possibility of continuing their journey, under specific conditions, on the next train with free seats.
AVE and Larga Distancia (long distance high-speed) services on domestic routes, with the exception of passengers whose ticket expressly indicates that this provision is not included.
This is applicable to passengers on AVE (high-speed), Alvia, Euromed and Intercity services who have a valid ticket for a specific day, train and route, subject to certain price options, and arrive at the departure station indicated on their ticket after the train departs, within a maximum of 30 minutes from the train's scheduled time of departure.
Renfe will offer the option of travelling on another train that serves the same route as the original ticket, paying a supplement established for this purpose, with the options indicated below:
The train offered must be equivalent or lower than the original, in other words, if the missed train is an AVE (high-speed) train, any other may be offered, while if the missed train is a Larga Distancia (long distance), any other option may be offered except an AVE (high-speed) train.
The customer's decision to accept or reject any of these options does not entitle them to any other type of additional compensation, nor to the claim any expenses that may be incurred as a result of their decisions.
The customer who has missed their train must go to the Renfe Service Centre or to the ADIF Customer Service Offices, as applicable, to obtain authorisation for the new ticket to be issued. If neither of these two points are available at the station, the customer can obtain the new ticket directly from the ticket offices of the ticket's departure station.
For the new ticket purchased, only the pet complement and bicycle complement will be offered.
The conditions for using the new ticket are those corresponding to the price option and, where appropriate, the corresponding supplements, regardless of the services originally arranged by the customer.
The amount to be paid shall be a percentage of the dynamic price of the new ticket purchased. If the new ticket corresponds to a higher price option than the original ticket, an additional payment for this concept shall also be required.
The price options providing cover for "Missed trains", as well as the amount to be paid for the new ticket purchased, are as follows:
The new ticket cannot be changed or cancelled.
Nor can the passenger name be changed or new "Missed Trains" cover provided.
If the passenger does not accept the offer made by Renfe to allow them to continue their trip, the provisions of the general terms and conditions of the transport agreements regarding the non-occupation of the seat at the departure station, featuring on the ticket, shall apply.
By 2023 and for a period of three years, a number of rail services will be subject to public service obligations under the local rail passenger service, creating a new commercial product called "Proximity".
The Proximity service includes rail lines with intermediate frequencies between the Cercanías (Commuter) and the Media Distancia (Mid-distance) services subject to public service obligations (OSP).
Proximity Services within the established rail links include Conventional Iberian gauge Mid-distance Regional trains and Commercial Services trains (with or without seat reservation, depending on the characteristics of the train) where one or both of the origin and destination stations are outside the Cercanías (Commuter) nodes, and between stations in different nodes, and on these routes any of the modalities of the commercial offer of the proximity service may be used.
Details of the Proximity Service are given at the end of this section.
The basic fare is the T-1 fare for Regional train services on the Iberian gauge. The maximum authorised prices are set per kilometre interval, up to a maximum of 120 km.
The authorised prices are the only starting points for calculating the reduced fares.
The entire Commercial Offer of Mid-distance Regional trains with T-1 Fare will be applied, including multi-journey tickets.
Depending on usage and in accordance with the terms of use of each train, tickets may be:
ONE-WAY tickets: They entitle a single person to travel on a single route and date, by train or additional route. When these tickets are named, they will be personal and non-transferable.
RETURN tickets: Valid for one person making a return journey using the same origin and destination station (discount on the price of two single tickets).
GROUP tickets: They entitle more than one person to travel on the same route and date on a single ticket, by train or additional route. These tickets are multi-person.
COMBINED tickets: They formalise different transport contracts and entitle the ticket holder to travel on different modes of transport, including, where appropriate, other associated services, in a single ticket. When these tickets are named, they will be personal and non-transferable.
MULTIPLE-JOURNEY tickets: They entitle the ticket holder to undertake several journeys, either a limited or unlimited number, during the validity period. These tickets may be single-person or multi-person. When they are single-person and named, they will be personal and non-transferable.
The multi-journey tickets valid for travel on the Proximity Service are:
Simultaneous or consecutive purchase of multiple tickets is not valid at a lower price for the same journey, train and date.
For services subject to public service obligations, promotional or discounted prices are calculated based solely on the prices authorised by the central government. In general, for services subject to public service obligations, discounts cannot combined with other commercial offers, unless expressly specified, in which case the combination of discounts or offers will only be allowed under the terms established in the terms and conditions for the commercial product.
Spanish Large Family reductions can be combined with any other discount on the applicable fare, except in the case of products, services or offers established under an agreement, or any that are used or paid on a non-individual basis.
Tickets for the use of these services can be purchased through the usual sales channels: ticket offices at stations, self-service machines, the Renfe website and App.
Multi-journey tickets are only sold at stations: ticket offices and self-service machines (this operation is not available in the remote service "Ares" in the stations) and via the Renfe website.
Renfe Viajeros (Renfe Passengers) will be able to market, through a local distribution system and other media (e.g. contactless cards), commercial products that require it due to their characteristics, as the specific tickets for the University of Rabanales are currently marketed.
Occupying a seat means that the customer exercises their right to sit in a seated space, with or without a guaranteed seat, on a specific train and route, by purchasing a valid ticket, depending on the service offered in each case.
In Proximity Services of Mid-distance Regional trains without assigned seating, the customer can occupy a seat, if free, or travel standing.
In general, the Proximity Service will not have reserved seating. It will only be offered on those Proximity rail services that are so arranged due to the characteristics of the commercial train.
For formalisation of international passes:: Eurail Range Passes, InterRail Range Passes, FIP Leisure, Reduction Card, FIP Service and Free Circulation Card, the price of the seat reservation is set at 4 euros.
Formalisation means the completion of a journey, at least with the date of travel and the train by which the journey is to be made. Each journey must be validated; max. one passenger per train and day.
In the case of multi-journey tickets, the act of discounting or marking a journey is considered a cancellation.
The purchased ticket must be carried on a carrier approved by Renfe Viajeros (Renfe Passengers), formalised or validated if necessary, with the original valid documents confirming the identity of the passenger and with the identification documents justifying the discount to which he/she is entitled.
Multi-journey tickets can be purchased at the ticket office or from the self-service machines in the stations. Also on the Renfe website APP and on the Renfe website. In this case, you must be registered as a user at www.renfe.com.
For Proximity Service rail services where tickets are loaded onto a contactless card, cancellation must be effected before the start and end of the journey at the machines provided at the stations.
If these are not available, the journey will be cancelled by the ticket inspectors on the train. Cancellations are noted on the contactless card.
Formalisation is free of charge for purchased origins and destinations and authorised trains, and must be accompanied by the Pass of which the passenger is the holder.
The staff in charge of boarding control and supervision/inspection on the train must ensure that the passenger holding a ticket covered by this regulation has boarded the train with his ticket duly formalised or validated. They must also ensure that the holder of the multi-journey ticket is identical and can produce an identity document proving the requirement for a reduction in the price of the multi-journey ticket.
Passengers boarding the train without proper formalisation/validation will be considered as passengers without a valid ticket.
If it is found that the ticket is being used fraudulently or that the possession of the Pass does not correspond to the identification presented, the ticket inspectors/supervisors on the train will act without prejudice to the measures or sanctions provided for in the General Terms and Conditions of Transport Contracts of Renfe Viajeros (Renfe Passengers), and will proceed to:
In both cases, both the physical medium and the locator will be sent to the service department of the territorial administration of the public service of the corresponding territory for cancellation.
A passenger shall also be deemed to be a passenger without a ticket valid for travel in the following cases:
If the passenger boards the train at a station without staff and without any mechanical or electronic means of formalising/validating the journey, the ticket inspectors/supervisors on the train must do so.
Passengers can extend their journey by paying a single ticket at the basic train fare for the new route, as long as they have informed the staff in charge of supervision/intervention on the route and there are seats available.
The customer will be charged the full cost of the journey from the point of departure to the destination, less the amount previously paid for the journey originally purchased.
If the passenger does not request the extension in advance and pay the fare to the inspector en route, according to the chosen conditions, they will be considered to be travelling without a valid ticket for the extended part of the route.
The provisions for travel by minors apply. On Proximity Services combined with a Commercial Services train, minors under 14 years of age must travel accompanied by an adult, i.e. a person who is at least 14 years of age, and the sale of a ticket to an unaccompanied minor under 14 years of age is not permitted, regardless of whether a child fare or an adult fare is used.
Generally, the Proximity Service will not have an "H" seat or assistance service for passengers with disabilities or reduced mobility. It will only be provided on those Proximity rail services that are so designated due to their characteristics.
All other General Terms and Conditions, commercial offers, commercial contracts and contracts with public bodies shall be governed by the provisions of the respective Special Fares or General Terms and Conditions.
During the period of marketing of the free passes for regular passengers, known as Free Pass and Child Free Pass, these passes will be valid for all trains of the Proximity Service. In addition, during this period, the sale of all multi-journey tickets for these services will be suspended, applying the "abuse" measures applicable to the Free Pass.
