What changed
The Spanish Government has approved special discounts on state-managed public land transport tickets (trains and long-distance buses) for young people travelling between 1 July and 30 September 2026. The measure responds to rising living and transport costs linked to the 2026 energy crisis. A 50% discount on the Interrail Pass for travel across Europe, purchased through Renfe, is also included.
Who is affected
Young people legally residing in Spain are the main beneficiaries, and they must register on the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility's website to access the discounts. The Interrail discount is aimed at those aged 18 to 30 with legal residence in Spain. Transport operators applying the discounts are also subject to visibility and communication requirements.
What to look out for
→ It is worth registering on the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility's website to access train and bus discounts, and purchasing the Interrail Pass through Renfe if you plan to travel in Europe this summer. Official information will be available on the Ministry's website.
