@alina like, I'd very much prefer to just use the mobile ticket. but since I need to buy it through Renfe to get a discount, and they only sell the paper version...
@kitten@Gaelan how to confuse Western European railway staff: show up with a paper Interrail and paper reservations, none of which has a code to scan. (The people at the boarding gate in Chamartín had to call for help because they didn’t know what to do with our tickets - that was when they accused my gf of fraud because why is she traveling with a German ticket when she clearly has a Spanish name and Madrid dialect )
rections I got include: * LNER guard in training, who had to have his instructor explain it (probably a good example!) * Lumo staff: "oh it's one of those!"
