Identify the ticket in your booking
Look for Digital Regional Ticket, or the Italian initials BDR. Trenitalia also sells an Electronic Regional Ticket and regional paper tickets with different conditions. Seeing a PDF or a code on your phone alone does not identify which terms apply.
Work backwards from the scheduled departure
Suppose your train is due out at 17:10. At 17:00, you are still twenty minutes from the station. To take a later train, open the booking and complete the change before 17:10. Even when a departure board shows a delay, use the scheduled time for the ordinary change deadline. These times are a planning example.
Open the amended ticket before inspection
Read the new time and train number in the confirmation. The ticket validates automatically at the new train’s scheduled departure. Be ready to show the amended ticket with its moving green bar and valid identification. If the deadline has passed or the service is disrupted, check what applies with staff.
Your plan, step by step
- Identify the ticket type in your booking
- Complete the change before the scheduled departure
- Open the amended ticket and have identification ready
