Co-travel discount

You share a co-travel code with the person you want to travel with.

This is how you give the discount:

• Log in to Mijn NS.
• You will see a box titled 'Travel together with discount' on your homepage.
• Select 'Share co-travel code'.
• You will see the code on the next screen.
• Send the code to your fellow traveller.

Your fellow traveller receives your message and can use the co-travel code for three days to order a ticket. They can also link the Co-travel discount in Mijn NS to one of these subscriptions: NS Flex Basis, NS Flex Weekend Voordeel or NS Flex Weekend Vrij. Alternatively, you can go together to an NS Tickets & Service shop.
The train conductor will see that you are travelling together when checking tickets. Do not forget your ID.

You travel with a 40% discount during off-peak hours and on weekends and public holidays.

During off-peak hours
From Monday to Friday, between 9:00 and 16:00, and from 18:30 until 6:30.
Note: The Co-travel discount is valid until 4:00 the following day.

On weekends and public holidays
All day.
Important: you may not travel during peak hours with the Dal Co-travel ticket, even if you checked in during off-peak hours. If you travel with an NS Flex subscription, the time of check-in applies. In that case, you may check in during off-peak hours but still be on the train during peak hours.

Since 22 April 2024, you can only get the Co-travel discount using a co-travel code from a subscriber or a student with a Student Travel Product. You can arrange the discount on ns.nl or in the NS app.
If you prefer not to buy your ticket online, you can still arrange the Co-travel discount at an NS Tickets & Service shop. Go to the shop together with the NS subscriber.

Bring along:

• Identification document
• OV-chipkaart, if you have an NS subscription

Note: if you are the recipient and have an NS Flex subscription, you cannot visit the service shop. Please arrange the Co-travel discount in Mijn NS on our website.

Option 2: arrange the Co-travel discount through an NS Tickets & Service shop
Visit the NS Tickets & Service shop together with the person you are travelling with. Bring both your OV-chipkaart and ID; we will gladly assist you. If you are the recipient and have an NS Flex subscription, please arrange the Co-travel discount in Mijn NS on our website (see option 1).

Bring along:

• Identification document
• OV-chipkaart, if you have an NS subscription

Your NS account is always linked to one customer number. The message appears if the NS account you are logged into does not match the customer number. There may be multiple entries for you in our system under different customer numbers. Please contact NS Customer Service. We are happy to assist you.

No, Temporary Ticket Rights means using substitute e-tickets instead of your OV-chipkaart with your subscription. Therefore, you cannot share the Co-travel discount.
