8 FOR 6: ENJOY MORE GETAWAYS THIS SUMMER!
Until May 31, 2013 inclusive, we’re giving you an 8 pak for a 6 pak. That means you’ll get 8 one-way trips when you buy a VIA 6 pak for travel between two pre-determined stations in the Québec City – Windsor corridor and on board the Ocean between Montréal, Moncton and Halifax.
You’re the perfect age to save.
The VIA 6 pak (6 one-way tickets) is a package offered to young people between 12 and 25 so they can travel on a budget in the Québec City – Windsor corridor and on board the Ocean between Montréal, Moncton and Halifax.
VIA Rail offers you a choice of two types of VIA 6 pak:
1. The VIA Supersaver 6 pak offers you savings of up to 50% on the adult regular fare for 6 one-way trips (3 round trips) between two pre-determined stations on the VIA Rail network. Availability of seats is limited.
2. The VIA Discounted 6 pak allows you to save up to 40% on the adult regular fare with the purchase of 6 one-way trips between two pre-determined stations on the VIA network. Pak holders have access to more available seats than the Supersaver 6 pak.

The VIA 6 pak for travel on board the Ocean between Montréal, Moncton and Halifax.
Need to get to Halifax for school, to see family or simply to fulfill your dream of seeing the sea? VIA offers you the VIA 6 pak for travel on board the Ocean:
6 one-way trips, valid for one year, for travel between Montréal and Halifax, between Montréal and Moncton or between Moncton and Halifax. The VIA 6 pak is available at both the Discounted and the Supersaver fares.
You no longer have to show an ISIC card to purchase your VIA 6 pak! However, please note that the ISIC card will be accepted for the purchase of a 6 pak by those aged 26 and over (or until your 6 pak credits expire or are used).
