audrey2580 Posted January 19, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Sorry I just can't figure this out. Is my 6 year old free or just reduced since he is not a citizen of the EU? here's what the website says Entrance fee Single day ticket (valid 1 day): € 11 (regular); € 5,50 (reduced) . Cumulative ticket (valid 3 days for entrance to 5 sites: Pompeii, Herculaneum, Oplontis, Stabiae, Boscoreale): € 20 (regular); € 10 (reduced). Entrance to the site is free for under-18 year olds and over-65s resident in the European Union. There are some reciprocal agreements for non EU residents. Reduced prices apply for EU citizens aged between 18-25 and for EU state school teachers. There are reciprocal agreements for some non-EU countries. Free and reduced tickets will be issued only on presentation of valid identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkto Posted January 19, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2011 The way it reads there is no discount. However we got a free ticket for 15 yo with picture ID. May be my speaking little bit of Italian helped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted January 19, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 19, 2011 There is no automatic discount for children. As the notice says, there are some reciprocal agreements. When I used to travel in Europe with my parents, they arranged for me to get what was called an International Student ID Card (ISIC). With that, I was given discounts on admission to some museums and possibly some sites. Looks like they still have them (just Googled it), so you may want to consider it.

KirkNC Posted January 19, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2011 No you are out of luck, this was a pet peeve of mine as I don't know of any site in the US that is priced differently for non-US citizens. Heck they would probably be sued if they did that :rolleyes:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffatsea Posted January 20, 2011 #5 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Every country /state has different rules. Italy generally allows discounts for EU citizens. Spain has discounts for all seniors. Here in San Diego on Tuesdays museums are free for San Diego County residents BUT not for anyone else. It is perfectly legal to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
