Hi. It still doesn’t appear to be possible to book seat reservations on the Narvik to Stockholm service. Have spoken to info office at Oslo and Bergen and they still have no clue when bookings will be possible. Does anyone have any further info they can provide. Bit worried there will be a stampede for bookings when available. We are hoping to travel from Narvik to Umea on Sunday 6th July. Any update would be much appreciated . Thanks 

HelloLike many people, I'm trying to book the Stockholm -> Narvik in August. The train can be booked on the VY website but without the interrail option :( I'm trying to call them but despite long waits I can't get through to anyone... Has anyone managed? Do you know if the internet booking system will work soon? I was wondering if I should go through a travel agency to get help?Thank you for your helpKarine

hello all  We are flying into FCO from Toronto in September and supposed to land at 1215hrs. We plan to travel onward to Florence the same day. We have Eurail Global Pass, 1st class.I see there is 1 train from FCO to Florence Santa Marai Novella leaving at 1353hrs. Not sure that we will be able to make that train. flight delay, customs, baggage. So we can take the Leonardo Express to Rome Termini. And then from Rome Termini to Florence. if I book FCO to Florence, there is only 15-minute change time. That makes me nervous, so I would like to book separately trains from FCO to Rome and then Rome to Florence. Never booked 2 separate trains on 1 day, so I am looking for assistance. i know that it should still be considered 1 travel day. 

Hi,As I am preparing my first trip alone in train, I want to be sure that my itinerary is possible with the global pass, as I don't find the instructions very clear, especially on the return day.Here is what I planned:First day:20:24 PARIS EST (France) → 22:11 STRASBOURG (France)23:42 STRASBOURG (France) → 10:13 WIEN HBF (Austria)Second day:23:10 WIEN HBF (Austria) → 06:07 KRAKOW GLOWNY (Poland)Third day:22:39 KRAKOW GLOWNY (Poland) → 01:52 OSTRAVA HLAVNI NADRAZI (Czech Republic)Fourth day (Just after the third day):02:28 OSTRAVA HLAVNI NADRAZI (Czech Republic) → 05:46 PRAGUE HLAVNI NADRAZI (Czech Republic)Return:09:33 PRAGUE-SMICHOV (Czech Republic) → 15:18 MUENCHEN HBF (Germany)15:47 MUENCHEN HBF (Germany) → 17:59 STUTTGART HBF (Germany)18:52 STUTTGART HBF (Germany) → 22:16 PARIS EST (France)Did I count well and is the return counted as one day ? Should I take a 4 or 5 days global pass ?Thanks for your answers.

Is it required to reserve boat from salerno to positano in italy this August or is it pay as you go? Do they get filled fast? Thanks.

Hello! I would like to buy tickets for the direct train from Florence to Vienna at night, but the page tells me ticket not available for the date I must travel, which is September 15. What other direct travel options or with few combinations will there be that are at night? Does anyone else have this problem? I would be very grateful if anyone could give me some guidance.

Hey. Im flying to Italy on July, 9. Im planning a detailed Italy trip. Any travelbuddy here?

Hi.I cant see how we can use the Greek Island Pass on Seajets ferries from Thessaloniki to Skopelos.Is Seajets the only company to sail to Skopelos and Alonissos?

Hello. I want to go from Salzburg to Bled jezero on 8 juli. I have a transfer in Villach but it seems that I have to take a bus but I am not sure because it says train next to it and I thought you can only take the train with the global pass.Does anyone know what is meant here? 

Hi!Has anyone managed to reserve bike spaces on the IC that follows the NJ from Switzerland to the Netherlands?

Holaa, soy español y tengo 18 años, y tengo pensado hacer el interrail por Europa el verano del año que viene. Estoy en un grupo con más españoles que van a hacer el interrail, si no tienes grupo para hacerlo o quieres entrar en el grupo, pásame tu insta y te añado. También pueden unirse gente de otros países 

I plan to travel by rail this summer through Germany and Switzerland with my family. Originally, I liked the Eurail Global pass because i thought I could be flexible on which train to take as each day presented itself rather than purchase specific routes ahead of time. However now I am learning that a seat reservation should be purchased because of possible crowded conditions with tourists and such. I also learned that you must purchase seat reservations 24 hours prior. If this is correct, then I am back to specific routes and times with no flexibility. What advantage is a Eurail Global pass if you have to buy seat reservations the day prior?  It seems like I should just buy specific tickets which is a bit cheaper. What am I missing…thanks.

Hello,I am trying to book a train for Italy Naples to Pompei in July and it says I need a seat reservation. There is no button to press to make the seat reservation. I can’t find out what company/train/website I need to find to make the seat reservation. I have attached an image of the train I would like to book at the beginning of July. I have tried through the app and through the website. I’m so clueless, I really do not understand how this is supposed to seem easy. 

Hi, I have just been entering my first travel day on interail planner and worried as my ticket to get from London St Pancras to Brussels midi is 9.01 am Sat 20th July. Arriving 12.05pm. I’m hoping to catch the 12.25 train to Koln. This arrives 14.15. Then 14.53 to Munchen, then 20.50 to Salzburg, arriving 22.42.When I put it into the planner it tells me that I get into Brussels at 12.13 ( not 12.05). If I don’t have enough time to get 12.25, then I looked at 1.25 from Koln to Munchen, but it says on site I need to reserve this train at 29 euros. The next train is 15.46, gets to Munchen 21.13, I would then have to get 21.43 to Salzburg getting in at 23.37. Sorry it’s so long, but my questions are, is the time on my ticket correct to get into Brussels on Eurostar at 12.05? Or is 12.13 as on interail site correct? Would I have enough time to get 12.25 train to Koln?If not, should I reserve the 1.25 train from Brussels to Koln at 29 euros? 3 of us travelling! Lastly, if all goes really wro

Hi,I have a 4 day pass. One of these days is used for the outbound and then 2 days travelling outside my home country. Can I use the last day to only travel inside my home country (so leave from a city that’s in my home country and only take trains inside my home country)?Thanks in advance,Elise

Bonjour tout le monde, Mon départ est imminent pour un petit tour d'Europe en train mais j'avais une question, j'ai effectué une réservation de place assise sur le site Interrail pour un TGV SNCF afin de quitter le territoire français. Mais cela me dit d'imprimer la réservation. Est-ce obligatoire d'avoir la version papier ? Ce qui m'amène à une deuxième question : dois-je prévoir de réserver ma place assise pour le retour en France et d'imprimer cette deuxième réservation avant de partir ou bien j'aurais la possibilité de présenter le QR code numérique ? (Je ne sais pas encore par quel pays passer pour mon trajet retour) Merci beaucoup pour votre aide  

I have some work in Kongsburg (near Oslo) on 4th July. I’d like to do all the travel by train. I have a family in Utrecht (en route nearly). So this would require leaving home in Welwyn Garden on 2nd July, staying with family in Utrecht and then on 3rd doing the Utrecht to Kongburg larger 2nd half of the journey. Returning on 5th with hopefully everything in reverse. Would buying some kind of pass enable a fare reduction ?

If I have entered a longer journey with several changes in the mobile app: One of the trains is late and I cannot catch the following trains. Do I then have to put together a new trip or can I take other trains (no reservations) with the notice of the delay without having to re-enter everything?Or, optionally, can I immediately insert several trains as a ticket whose times overlap?

Hello Interrailers,I have planned to visit Paris by the end of this week or the subsequent week for a few days and wanted to know if there is somebody also visiting Paris at this time?What I want to do / see beside the city‘s highlights I will plan shortly before moving to Paris. It would be nice to have a good company or simply spending some interesting time together - in visiting places, having a drink or good conversations.Looking forward to hear from you :).  Regards,Freddy  

Worrying so much with horror stories of app, I’m greatly considering changing to paper ticket for trip in July with teenage daughters. I’m finding it all very confusing.Thoughts on changing please? many thanks , Melanie 

I’m taking the Ankara-Kars train in July, then heading to Tblisi. Are there currently buses running from Kars to Tblisi direct, or do I have to go north via Batumi?

I’ve written a couple of times to them over the years and I’ve never actually had a response. Once trying to claim a delay repayment and once recently about a booking query. Neither time did I actually get anything back. Same with DB. Do they exist, can you get a response? Do they just ignore English!?I don’t think much of the train companies in the UK, but one thing we do have is delay repay which does work really well.

Hello, As suggested by experts, for Caledonian sleeper journey from Edinburgh to London Euston, we have to add the journey manually with time as 00.40 CET, But I don't see any option to add manually now.Also, I can see 2 trains journey by Rail planner starting at 23.40, which one to add and how to add?
