What Italo is

Pass vs point-to-point ticket

Every Italo ticket is seat-specific. Interrail/Eurail covers Italo with a paid reservation — summer quotas go early. If you are only riding Rome–Milan once, a Low Cost point-to-point seat is usually enough; a pass pays off when you stack several Italian high-speed legs.
