Nice to meet you, I'm Bruna Kozel.I'm Brazilian and I'm going on a trip to Europe in April 2025, passing through several countries, Spain, Madrid and ending in Berlin. I intend to do many Eurail train sections, the pass for which I have already purchased.However, I need help with OBB Nighjet as I purchased an overnight flight from Zurich to Berlin on the wrong date. Does anyone know how to help me? I try to contact him but they don't respond. Thanks.

HelloI’ve tried every option I can find to make a reservation on the fast train between Nimes and Madrid for mid May. (So within the 90 day limit). On Rail Europe it won’t let me select a ticket. And on the Interrail website it tells me I can’t book this route. The best advice I’ve seen is to ring the Renfe reservations line but I speak no Spanish so am wondering how viable an option that is.Hoping someone can advise me what I need to do. I’m trying to get to Andalucia but had planned to spend a couple of days in Madrid.Many thanksAnnette Mercer

I’m trying to plan a trip on the Interrail website… but if I enter 4 destinations, it calculates 5 days of travel. To be specific: London - Trier (day 1)Trier -  Etoy (day 2)Etoy - Turin (day 3)Turin - London (day 4) So.. if I put London as a starting point (with a 0 night stay), so I can book the travel from London to Trier, the website tells me I have 5 days of travel. Sooooo…. I am missing something or misunderstanding the logic here… Help? Marie

Ecco la traduzione in inglese: Hello everyone!! Two of my friends and I are planning to do an Interrail trip in northeastern Europe in August, and we need some information. We have already purchased the 15-day Global Pass, but we are unsure whether we need to book train tickets, how far in advance we should book them (months ahead or even just the day before), or if reservations are not required at all. Our planned destinations are:Bucharest → Sofia → Skopje → Belgrade → Budapest → Vienna → Bratislava → Warsaw → Vilnius → Riga → Tallinn. Thank you for any information and advice you can give us. Pietro Fammi sapere se vuoi modifiche!

Before my Euro trip, I’d purchased Euro Train Global Pass, and I'd booked the 1-calss seats ticket from Rotterdam centraal station to Brussels Midi/zuid station on 2December2024 regarding my planned schedule on the  EuroStar train(ref:CZ7F3J) but the Euro Star train was cancelled while I was waiting on the platform. I had tried to ask the CS services at Rotterdam Station but they said "they do not know how to fix because this is the Eurostar company problem, we cannot not help you. "  I also could not find the agent counter of the EuroStar at the whole Rotterdam centraal station. Regarding this issue, could you please advise the solution to me if I meet the same issue next time. Thank you very much.

I have 2 global passes, 7 day and 10 day, and am planning a round trip from London via Eurostar to France and Spain and back.I’ve made reservations using the 10 day pass number, but it’s now clear that I will only be travelling for 7 days.Is it possible to transfer the reservations made with the 10 day pass to the 7 day pass?Thanks in advance for your help.

This is our first Interrail trip, and I think I have most of the details under control.My confusion starts with the travel app.I understand the definition of a travel day - but…On our first day of travel we are going from St Pancras to Lausanne with changes in Paris and Geneva.The last leg of the journey does not involve the need to book seats, so we are free to travel as and when we please.How do I record this in the app as a travel day?Do I need to include all the interstitial stops, or do I merely select the date and enter the start and end points?The start time is fixed by the service from London that we are booked on, but our final arrival time is open to discussion as we can just jump on any train that covers that leg.

how can I find my seat reservations on Eurail

Hello everyone, I was wondering if I did 4 travel days, I would be able to go from Rome to Germany to France to Milan? and I can hop on any train during my travel day even if it’s local/ city trains?

Hoi, hoe zijn jullie ervaringen met zitplaats reserveringen? Wanneer je ‘You're ready to board’ ben je dan verzekerd dat je met de trein mee mag en wanneer het niet verplicht is, mag je dan altijd met de trein mee, maar wanneer er geen plekken zijn dan staand?

Hoi, een vriendin en ik willen graag een interrail trip naar Praag, Milaan, Strasburg en Parijs gaan maken in 11 dagen. Wij hadden enkele vragen:Is iemand bekend met Strasburg? Het lijkt ons een mooie stad(je) maar is hier genoeg te doen? Ivm een redelijk korte reis willen we toch i.p.v. naar Wenen dichtbij Parijs en Milaan in de buurt. Heeft iemand anders andere leuke steden? Met welke treinen kun je reizen, die bij de pas horen? Waar is dit te vinden? Zijn dat de ‘partners'? Hoe is jullie ervaring met wel/geen zitplaatsen reserveren?

I’m looking for tips on finding cheap accommodation or opportunities to work in exchange for a place to stay. Does anyone have recommendations for websites, apps, or personal experiences with this?Any advice would be super helpful

I'm planning an Interrail trip from Bologna, Italy, to Istanbul, Turkey, passing through Italy, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Serbia, Greece, and Turkey.Since Albania and North Macedonia aren’t included in the Interrail pass, does anyone know if the train journey between Serbia and Greece is covered? Also, for those who’ve traveled this route, do you think the Interrail pass is worth it for these destinations, or would other transport options be better?Would love to hear about your experiences and tips!

We have a group of 4 traveling 1st class (2 couples).  We purchased our passes but the other couple hasn’t yet.  Does it help with allowing the 4 of us to sit together if we purchase the other their passes under our account so all 4 of us will be on the same account?  Or can they buy their own, and can we all 4 still get reservations to sit together?  Thanks.

Hi everyone, excuse me if I have got this wrong, but looking for some help. I have paid €411.00 for a 5 day global pass, I have had to pay almost 50euro for the eurostar and seat reservations on my journeys are somestimes 15/20euro. Does this sound right? It just seems expensive. Also is it normal to not be able to book trains yet in France and Spain for the first week of June? Thanks so much community! 

Hi, I was hoping to get some advice from experienced travelers and natives on this forum about my family’s travel plans. We are from the states, visiting Paris and Switzerland, and are debating between the Eurail Global Pass and the Swiss Pass. We will be staying in Paris for 2 days, traveling for 6 consecutive days around Switzerland, and finally staying another 2 days in Paris. We are not sure about our plans in each city yet but our train route is going to be:Paris → Geneva → Bern → Spiez → Interlaken → Grindelwald → Spiez → Luzern → Zurich → Interlaken → Zweisimmen → Paris Would a Eurail Global Pass or Swiss Pass be more logical for us? We are also open to suggestions and recommendations on what to do in each city as this is our first time in Europe. Thank you for your time.

Hi there, I'm unclear on the rules about outbound journeys. I have a global pass for one month. I plan to leave Glasgow and travel to the Hague as the first stop on my trip. The trouble is, i planned to take the overnight train from Glasgow which leaves at 23.40 on the first day of travel. I then plan to wake up in London and take the eurostar on to bruxelles at 09.10. I'm worried that I would use up my outbound travel day on the 23.40 train and then not be able to travel from London across the border the next day.  Do I need to make the outbound journey to cross the border all in one travel day (0.00-23.00)? Thanks.
