Title: SCIC-NRT ticket in Italy - ticket validation
Post by: jfk on August 24, 2012, 05:08:32 pm

Hello,

I have one (hopefully simple) question - do I need to validate my SCIC-NRT RailPlus ticket (bought in Slovakia) in the machine before boarding a regional train in Italy? Thanks.

No, validation is necessary only for FS regional tickets, which are valid for 6 hours since validation. In case of SCIC-NRT such 6 hour validity rule isn't even possible, so you can ask yourself at the ticket desk in Italy, but it's 99.9% that SCIC-NRT ticket can be used without machine validation
