  • The service includes free reserved seats, travel insurance, and access to 12 exclusive seat sales per year, offering significant savings for regular travelers.
  • Membership is capped at 250,000 on a first-come, first-served basis and is available only to residents of 12 European countries, including the UK, Germany, and Spain.
