What the Special Fare for Children and Juniors offers
For children under 6 years of age, it is necessary to have a complimentary ticket issued from the boarding station to the destination station. You can obtain this ticket without any formalities even from the conductor. Juniors 15 to 17 years of age demonstrate eligibility for the special fare with a personal identity card, student ID card, ISIC card or other official card or carrier issued card containing the current photo and the first and last name and date of birth of the passenger. The entitlement may also be proved by the expired card. This ticket cannot be used for intra-regional journeys by Regional trains (Os) and Regional fast trains (Sp) in the territory of the South Moravian Region and the Zlín Region. |

Following a forthcoming announcement, it will also be possible to obtain a free ticket for a child in the ČD e-shop or when purchasing a ticket using a mobile telephone. Until then, it will be possible even in these cases to obtain a free ticket for a child directly from the conductor on the train, always without a handling surcharge or fare surcharge.

Can a child with an In Karta card receive a bigger discount?
