Get ready to travel

Hello, I want to Change my seat reservation from Saturday to Sunday. IT is a TGV inoui train.  But I Can' t find help. Thank you 

Hi, I’m Alejandra Quintero. I bought two global passes of Interrail. Next week I start my trip.I don’t have the option to reservate the sit in the application of interrail. Do you have the same problem?? How do you reserve a place in the app?? 

My wife and I are planning to visit the UK from the US this June. We are starting in London then heading to Norwich - York - Stirling - Inverness - Bristol - and finally leaving from Paris. We’ll be spending several days at each town and will use them as hubs to explore nearby towns by rail. Will Eurail suffice or would a Britpass (with separate ticket to Paris) be a better option? The Eurail planner doesn’t seem to let me pick a few of those. Thank you in advance for any advice.

Does the pass include trains between cities within a country ? (For example: from Vienna ,Austria to salzburg, Austria ) 

This summer I will travel from Paris (Austerlitz) to Pau with SNCF’s night train. I have just read this article about the French “Intercités de Nuit”: https://www.raileurope.com/en/trains/intercites-de-nuitIt says that there is an X-ray check at the station i Paris (I assume that is the Austerlitz station) and that passengers are advised to arrive at the station at least 30 min. before departure.I can not find anything about X-ray checks at Austerlitz anywhere else than this Raileurope article. The only time I have heard about X-ray at train stations is for Eurostar trains and Spanish trains. There might also be an X-ray machine by the luggage storage, but that is another thing. Can anyone confirm or refute that there will be an X-ray check at Austerlitz station for night train departures? My issue is that I will bring a backpack with camping equipment (for hiking in the Pyrenees), that may or may not give me some trouble. But the article does not mention what they are checking for.Pal

Is there going to be another sale for eurail pass before July :) 

Hello,We would like to book train tickets on the hellenictrain.gr website for the following route: Thessaloniki - Athens.We have bought our Interrail passes, but we don't know what discount formula to choose to indicate that we have an Interrail pass fare. Booking is compulsory on this route.Here's a screenshot of the website. Thanks a lot!  

Hello! I’ve been keeping an eye trying to book trains in Italy mid-to-late August! Every search I do seems to turn up no results! I appreciate it’s a popular time so I’ve been keeping an eye out for months now.I’m now concerned that the trains are fully booked! Given my searches are turning up available results in September (where they weren’t before)any advice on what to do/how to reserve would be appreciated. TIA.

Hallo,The community has already given me great guidance and I am back, now with more specific questions :)  If I were to visit one or more of the places below, how are links to get an interrail train to either Luxembourg, or Bruxelles, or Lille / Paris if need be.  Eventually going to London.Ideally I would like to end in Luxembourg as have not been there. Sankt Anton am Arlberg-located near the summit of the Arlberg Pass Seefeld in Tirol. Seefeld via Innsbruck.Salzburg The Tirol  -Oetz Valley,  Thank you so much, the guidance is invaluable. Bobby

Hi, travelling from London to Bruge.  Then onto France.  How does it work if wanting to stop off at a few stations on the travel day.  Do you just find local links?  many thanks

Hi fellow traintakers, I have an itinerary made for a trip to Italy, but was wondering how many travel days I will need since it includes night trains. 31st of March: Ghent to Munich31st of March to 1st of April: Munich to La Spezia nighttrain 11th of April to 12th of April: La Spezia to Munich nighttrain12th of April: Munich to Ghent Is this three or four travel days? Could I still make a trip from Ghent to Berlin with the same pass (which includes 4 travel days in total). Thank you!

I came to sweden as student and wanted to visit other european countries for holiday. can someone suggest me which pass to take as i have swedish resident permit card too.

Hi everyone. Next month I am planning on travelling during weekends, and I was thinking of buying a 7 days interrail pass instead of buying single train tickets. My idea is to travel to Italy, then go back home. The following weekend traveling to the Netherlands, then be back again, and the weekend after again traveling to Berlin and back. Can I do that? Or does it need to be a continuous trip?Thanks in advance!

Hi, we're a family with 2 adults and 2 kids of 4,5 years old. We're traveling with second class interrail tickets. We're taking the night train from Cerbère to Paris in April. Yesterday I bought our seat reservations asking for a 4-berth couchette in order to  not disturb other travelers. The person selling us the tickets didn't ask any questions and sold us couchette places in a 4 person couchette. Checking the tickets afterwards, I saw that it's a first class couchette while we only have second class interrail. Would this cause any problems? If so, can I still change these tickets to a 6 person couchette?Thanks a lot.Hannah

Hi. I purchased 2 global passes but forgot to add my children. I wanted to exchange (read the policy) it said I had to ask for a refund first which I did and they just said accepted. But I don’t want to loose the any money, I just wanted to exchange to put my children on them and pay the $15 euro. Now what do I do?? Is there anything I can do?it said I had to ask for a refund but then I got an email saying accepted. I thought it would take me to another option to exchange help! Aussie who has never used these before 

My partner has both of the passes on his iPad. We want to transfer them both to my phone. I read somewhere that you can only transfer passes once. Is this the case?

I am trying to plan my trip in the Eurail app. The train times  says seat reservations are required but says N/A in the pricing area with nothing to click on What does this mean? 

Hi Please can someone help me. I can’t seem to find the train departures from Madrid to Oviedo and between Ferrol to Porto. I have an interrail global pass but the train times aren’t showing in the journey planner. I’ve heard things about Renfe but what can I do? I’m going end of April 2024. Have Renfe not released the tickets yet and if so when will I know? thanks Will

I’m new to Eurail so apologies for my knowledge not being up to scratch.I hold a Eurail 2nd Class Global Pass and looked to make a seat reservation on this route for upcoming July. The Eurail site indicates reservations are not available until 90 days prior yet they seem to already be for sale on Rail Europe website. However the pass is not eligible for the direct route - is this because it is 2nd Class? Can I only use it on the train with a change in Narbonne?Also, in this situation where seats are for sale but not open to passholders, is there a risk that passholders could miss out on a seat, or are a certain number of seats reserved for passholders.Thanks!    

So i have a 7 day pass valid for 30 days. I have planned and created my trip but havent yet activated the pass. My question isIf i activate the pass the night before first day of travel and connect it to the trip, am i then allowed to change the trip for following days. For example, on day 1 i travel to interlaken and as per my trip i plan on going to Lucerne on day 2 which is what i have planned on my trip. Can i change my mind and go on day 3 instead? When i say days i mean just days and not travel days.Trying to understand if i can chabge my trip after travelling the first day. Hope that makes sense.  I want to be able to have tbe freedom to decide based on weather etc if we do day 2 travel day as per planned trip or can that be changed. Thanks

I see other questions answered as tap on + sign on my pass page. But I don’t see + sign at all  

I cannot pay for seat reservations as my payment cards are not accepted. I use a Mastercard. Any ideas as to a resolution?

Hey, my name is Martha, I‘m 18 years old and I‘m from Germany. I will travel approximately from 17 June until 16 July with my Interrail ticket. As I don't want to travel alone, I'm looking for a travel buddy.I want to visit Eastern Europe such like Slovenia, Croatia and Greece but I'm also open for other destinations :)If you're interested, you can text me here or on Instagram: mafa1154. I can speak German, English, French and Spain, so I think communication won't be hard.

This will be my first time traveling to France from Canada. Wanting to avoid flying with Boeing at this time, I am exploring other ways to approach my destination of Paris. One flight route could land us in Dublin. Is it viable for 2 active Seniors to take the train(s) from Dublin to England, through the Chunnel to Paris?
