Rail Europe Celebrates LGBTQ Inclusivity

Known as the the leading provider of European train tickets and passes, Rail Europe’s commitment to advocating and embracing diversity is more than a concept that is just thought about during the annual month-long festivities in June. As one of the platform’s foundational pillars, Rail Europe continually looks for opportunities to reinforce their passion and dedication to championing the spirit of inclusive and accessible travel across Europe.

Deeply embedded in the platform's values, Rail Europe is a proud partner of ELTA (European LGBTQIA+ Travel Association) – dedicated to advocating for safe, inclusive, and equal travel experiences for the LGBTQIA+ community throughout Europe. By partnering with businesses, destinations, and travel providers, ELTA works towards ensuring the travel industry is as vibrant and diverse as the people it serves.

With the intent to bridge the gaps between diverse communities across Europe, enabling connections, fostering understanding, and promoting cultural exchange, by collaborating with ELTA, Rail Europe endeavors to enhance the travel experiences of LGBTQIA+ individuals and allies, ensuring they feel not only welcomed but celebrated on every journey. This partnership will involve:

• Specialized Journeys: Collaboratively recommending rail journeys and packages that cater to LGBTQIA+ travelers, integrating stops at historically and culturally significant destinations within the community.

• Involvement and Support: Participating in bringing people to LGBTQIA+ events, festivals, and pride celebrations across Europe, harnessing the power of the rail network to bring communities together. Please see Rail Europe's recent blog on the must-see Pride celebrations across Europe this summer!

Understanding the rail journeys offered not only connect cities but also cultures, communities, and people – with this partnership, Rail Europe looks to further foster a welcoming and safe travel environment for all, irrespective of gender, sexuality, or identity.
