Rail Europe, the leading provider of train and rail passes across Europe, is partnering with the European LGBTQIA+ Travel Alliance (ELTA) to encourage greater diversity and inclusivity in travel. 

The new collaboration with ELTA will include specialized journeys and packages just for members of the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as involvement and support for LGBTQIA+ festivals and events across Europe. 

"At Rail Europe, diversity isn’t merely a concept; it is one of our foundational pillars, deeply embedded in our values. Partnering with ELTA allows us to reinforce our commitment to championing the spirit of inclusive and accessible travel across Europe," says Björn Bender, Executive Chairman and CEO of Rail Europe.

"The journeys we offer not only connect cities but also cultures, communities, and people, honoring the rich, diverse spectrum of experiences and identities that traverse our continent."

Rail Europe has over 90 years of experience connecting travelers with destinations across Europe, with a selection of over 150 rail providers across Europe. 

The Brussels-based European LGBTQIA+ Travel Alliance is an association that advocates for more inclusive travel across Europe for members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
