How to book a Rocky Mountaineer product ?

Step #0 – Introduction to Rocky Mountaineer(RM) products

Please read carefully the following as RM products are different from traditional bookings in Euronet.

Instead of traditional products printed immediately, RM require a confirmation number sent by the carrier before the journey starts in the Canada. Therefore, once booked in Euronet, Rail Europe will fullfill your request and assign to your Euronet booking a unique RM confirmation number.

Please follow the specific workflow in Euronet as described below:

At time of booking, select « Initiation » on Booking Details Tab.

Then two scenari can be offered:1) Either the requested product is available, and you’ll receive an option booking email.

EMAIL: [PRODUCT NAME] – Option confirmed

2) Either the requested product is not available and you’ll receive an alternate proposal email.EMAIL: [PRODUCT NAME] - Alternate option offered

NOTE: For RM, the official travel document is the carrier one. You’ll therefore receive a RM travel document few days before departure.

The travel document will be send to you 51 days prior to train departure. You cannot book RM trains for a departure in less than 60 days
