We are trying to book a train from Interlaken to Rome. At one transition, (Domodossola) the site says “You need to buy a seat reservation to board”; however, there is not a place to purchase a seat. At the next stop (Milano Centrale), it says the same thing, but with an option to purchase. Does this mean the train at the Domodossola is sold out?  Also, it says BUS operated by Ferrovie dello stato SpA; does this mean an actual bus, or is it still a train (the other transfers say Regional Train).  Thank you. 

Hi I was checking Amsterdam Centraal | A  brief station guide (seat61.com) , where it is written I can use Interail/Eurail QR code to go through gate pass. I want to utilize Interail pass for Amsterdam Centraal to Zaane Sachan trip via Sprinter.  Since this journey doesn't require a seat reservation, I would be going thru gates by Mobile Interail pass only. Now i have 3 passes in one mobile for 3 passengers. How other will scan the code if I will go through first with my mobile (and other two pass QR code in it) . Littel confusing. Could someone help here. TIA

I am traveling from Brussels Midi to Amsterdam Central tomorrow morning at 9:52 however I am seeing pass is not in network on Raill planner. Please advise 

Hey!I’m actually planning my trip right now and I wanted to ask something just to be sure. I’m planning to visit an Italian friend during my trip and I’ll be staying to her place in Padova. We’re planning to go to cities near hers. So I wanted to know if for example I go from Padova to Venice and in the same day go back to Padova it’ll still count as 1 day of traveling right?

I am planning a trip from Germany to Vienna for 2 nights and then on to Hungary for several nights. At some point on the way back I will travel from Hungary to Linz again for 2 nights and then on the way back to Germany. That's 6 days of travelling, right? So a global pass for 6 days? I live in Germany.

I am going to take a day trip from London to Stratford-upon-Avon. I am looking at round trip from London Euston Station to Stratford in July 2024. It is an express train to Birmingham then regular train to Stratford. On the Eurail app it says seat reservations needed. When I click on it says 1st class or 2nd class. I clicked 1st class and nothing happens. Is it too early for seat reservations? Do I need to look at another site?? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you. 

My family purchased the Eurail pass and we all added them to our phones. My mother in law started the booking of the trains on her phone and linked each pass to each persons eurail information/pass number. I have received email confirmations of bookings. How do I add these into my app? I would’ve assumed they would have immediately linked to my pass, but I cannot figure out how to get them on my app now.

I have plan a trip to Scandinavian from Berlin. When do I need to make the reservation of the seats? Must it be in advance or at the same day of the trip. I have bought a global pass first class and do I also need a reservation? I also read from another travellers that they experienced problems with reservations.Furthermore, there are any ideas to visit in Scanadinavian?ThanksAna

Hello,I am finding the P&O website impossible to use. I want to cross the Channel on May 21. Directferries gives the time of the only departures available as 06:40 and 8:20, but my date and any other date I enter is labelled Sold out! This is clearly impossible, and so I am willing to arrive to Calais as early as I can by train from Lille, hoping to get a bus there from Calais Ville to the ferry port, or if necessary a taxi.Are there any later ferries? That would help.Is this doable? Thank you for your help,Brian. 

The website from Interrail shows my itinerary and also shows that no reservation is needed. However, my app on my mobile phone says that this route can not be found. What does it mean?Why is there this discrepancy? Thanks

I bought a watch in Zurich (more than 300 chf) but I am leaving Europe from Paris, not Switzerland. My train to Paris is from Zurich HB tomorrow early morning. Do they have a tax refund place in Zurich HB? What is the process? How much time do I need for this purpose?

Purchased a Interrail pass for myself & my son yesterday for our trip to Germany from UK at the end of June. Managed to add the route to “my trip” & purchased the seat reservation for Eurostar through interrail website. When I go on my reservations it says “more details required” but I’ve done all that on the Eurostar website & have received my e-ticket via email so not sure why I’m still getting that message.Also couldn’t book seat reservation on high speed train from Brussels via interrail so had to do on DB website, will I just need to show email confirmation of seat reservation on that train if asked?Apologies for the long winded question but I’ve been having real difficulties with this since early yesterday.

I bought a mobile Eurail Pass "7 days in 1 month 2nd class" for the first time. I’ll be in Europe from May 6th to May 22nd and I’ll take trains in 7 days within that period:a. With mandatory reservation, for example Eurostar (I already bought the tickets paying a discount).b. No mandatory reservation (I still bought the tickets to reserve a seat).c. Without the possibility of reserving a seat (I’ll show up at the station and take the train by showing the pass).My questions:1) I arrive in Madrid on May 6th, and I'll take the first train in London on May 13th. Can I activate the pass in Madrid?2) Every time I take a train, do I have to show the pass on my cell phone (plus the corresponding ticket in cases a and b)?3) I bought some tickets through Eurail.com and they appear in the application's "Reservations Overview". I bought other tickets through RailEurope or from the railway companies' websites (always indicating the pass number) so those are not listed in Eurail  app. Do I have to u

We will use our Global 1st class EURAIL pass for the first time on 07 May. We are using the rail planner app and have planned a trip from Paris Gare de Lyon to Mulhouse Ville. Seat reservations are required and we have booked seats and printed the confirmation. We are seniors and have not travelled with a EURAIL pass previously. We will take the train from Chatelet Les Halles to Gare de Lyon (I don’t believe that I can use the EURAIL pass for this trip. Please confirm that this is the case). My question is about what we need to do when we get to Paris Gare de Lyon. Who/Where do we present our mobile pass? We do not speak French and do not want to miss our train. I am sure that there will be people at the station who can help us but I would like to know in advance what to do. Thank you for your assistance. 

Hiii, Me and my friend, both 18 years old, are planning to do our first trip together this summer. We want to go in september for two weeks and since we are students we´re on a low budget so we´re thinking of going to east Europe. Maybe Vienna, Budapest, etc. We would be leaving from antwerp.If anyone has any tips or destination ideas, please let us know because we are looking forward to a new adventure but a little inexperienced. :) 

Booking from Bucharest to Budapest for June. Reservation gets added to my cart but then I get the error message ‘Technical issues: some trains can't be booked with us right now. See other ways to book here. Please check again shortly!’ Is this a bug or a feature? I can book direct via the Romanian operator so there is space available. Any ideas if this is an issue with the interface with the Romanian operator that might be sorted shortly or do i book direct?

I have trips planned on my mobile app. There are fees due. How do I pay for the fees?

Hello everyone ;)This is my first message here ;)I'm surprised at how attractive your services are in terms of price. Sincerely ;) I'll keep it simple (we could go into more detail) I plan to make 4-5 X round trips between a city in my country, Switzerland, and another city in Hungary over 2 months. That is : Moutier (CH) -> Bük(HU)  then Bük(HU)  ->Moutier (CH) (back)I know there's a 10-trip/2-month pass available.Is this the right solution?I have other questions, but this one is crucial before going any further. I apologize for my lack of understanding. 🙄 Papi1957Merci ;) 

Hey:)I've just bought a relatively large (60+10 liters) backpack for traveling. When I got home, I noticed that I can only get into the large compartment from the top. And I can't open it at the front like a travel bag.What do you think? I've never traveled with a backpack before? Is that a disadvantage? Should I exchange it?

From Zurich, What is the cheapest way to go to lucern and mt titli for tomorrow w/o Global Pass? I have one day left in my Global Pass but I am saving that for going back to Paris from where my flight to home is. Google maps is showing to take IR70 from Zurich Hb to Lucerne. And then IR from Lucerne to Engelberg. Would it be better / cheaper to rent a car for the day? 

Hi there, the last time I spent a long duration in Europe was over 25 years ago, and at that time I carried cash with me and credit cards. These days, I’m mostly cashless, but I would like to have some local currency with me on this trip – all countries will either take the British pound or the euro. I’ll primarily be using my credit card – I hope - on this trip as that is the easiest from my perspective. But does anybody have any recommendation on how much cash per day I should have just for incidentals? Assuming England, France, Italy, Croatia, and Greece will except a credit card, and I won’t need much cash on hand? Thank you in advance for any help

Hi, we will be missing our train today’s 10:06 Tirano to Chur Bernia express train. If we take a later train, would we be still able to see the same views? 

HiI am new to the community. I am trying to reserve a seat from London to Glasgow. On Eurail reservation site it says you have to reserve a seat by paying 10 Aud but in the Rail Europe web site it says that a reservation is not required. Both trains are Avanti west coast and at the same time. Which site is correct? If a reservation is not required can we sit in any seat? Thank you

Hi, my global pass trips is showing 5th travel day as today. Even though I did not have any travel today and nor did I had any activated trips. Now I don’t see an option to cancel/ remove it as my travel day. How do I resolve this?
