• At time of purchase and when using your VIA 6 pak, valid proof of age with photo for those 12 to 25 years old is required and must be presented to VIA personnel upon request. The ISIC card will be accepted for those 26 years old and older.

Once a trip has been made, or a ticket using the VIA 6 pak has been cancelled after the train’s scheduled departure, it becomes completely non-refundable and non-exchangeable. Tickets booked using a VIA 6 pak may be cancelled at any time prior to the scheduled departure of the train. They are credited to the VIA 6 pak for future use within the validity period of the VIA 6 pak. The VIA 6 pak will not be credited for tickets that are cancelled after the scheduled departure of the train. In this case, the credit is forfeited and cannot be used again.

  • For travel using a supersaver VIA 6 pak on a different date than the original booking, the new ticket must also be booked in the “Economy – supersaver fare” fare class. Please note that your initial booking must be cancelled prior to the edeparture time of the train.
  • For travel using a discounted VIA 6 pak on a different date than the original booking, the new ticket must also be booked in the “Economy – discounted” fare class. Please note that your initial booking must be cancelled prior to the edeparture time of the train.
