Student travel with VIA Rail

At VIA, we know how hard it can be to get by on a student budget, so we're happy to give you a break. As a full-time student, you are eligible for 35% off the adult regular fare in Comfort class (Economy). All you need is a proof of age if you're 17 or younger, or an ISIC card if you're 18 or older.

Increase your discount to 50% off the adult regular fare in Comfort class when you purchase a VIA 6 pak. The VIA 6 pak offers you 6 vouchers for one-way travel between any two pre-selected cities on the VIA Rail network. It's the perfect way to travel for less between home and school throughout the year.
