Get ready to travel

I found earlier option 30/5 today 11:54 for Paris Lyon to Zermatt with only 2 changes (instead of current 3) on b-Europe site but don’t have option to enter eurail pass for booking. I should be able to cancel existing booking Paris-Mulhouse n get a full refund if cancel before departure, correct? 

Hi, I bought a global interrail pass and I would like to start making my reservations (from the 22nd of July to the 6th of August), but I really don’t find how to make them. The app only redirects me to the website.Thank you very much.

I bought all the seat that are required in my trip, I would ask if Do I need to buy also the seat reservation that are recommended?

Hello fellow travelers. I am currently planning a trip through (mostly) Sweden with a friend. I want to travel the following route: Copenhagen (Airport) - Malmo - Gotenborg - Oslo - Orebro - Uppsala - StockholmNow I am not sure if I need to buy a Global pass or if the one-country pass for Sweden suffices? I am questioning due to the statement on:https://www.eurail.com/en/get-inspired/top-destinations/sweden-train, where it says that trains to Copenhagen and Oslo would be included - but I really can’t find any more information on this anywhere on the internet. Do you have more information/experiences by chance..?

Hi Community Members,New to the community. Questions:Using 15 days in 2 months Eurail Global Pass, following queries:Florence to Rome before noon; then Rome to Rome Airport in the afternoon. Two trips same day - using one pass day or two pass days? Are reservation fees refundable? Is a reservation linked to a specific train? What happened you need to take a different train, can you transfer the reservation to another train?Sorry to the silly questions.

Is it possible to get off at a stop that is not the destination?ex: I bought an “reservation required ticket” for Padova -  Munich.If I wanted to get off in Salisbury to spend a few hours there and then take a train to Munich, which does not require mandatory reservations, could I do it? Obviously all in the same day, we are talking about 4/5h. 

Hi thereNew to interrail and slightly baffled by the whole thing! My partner and i have 4-day passes. We want to book London St Pancras to Brussels. Have found train we want via interrail.eu; this is linked to our pass details etc. I get to the ‘payment’ stage and still cannot see which seats we’ll be assigned. Is this because there are only a certain number of pass-holder seats available, and you are just assigned whichever seats there are? I just find it strange I cannot see a seating plan or anything; maybe I’m looking in the wrong place? Do I just pay the 60 euros and then find out which seats we have?Apologies, this has probably been answered elsewhere, but I feel like I’m going round in circles! :)

Puedo comprar reserva de asiento para cracovia-polonia en alguna estación que no sea en Polonia? 

I have just reserved an overnight train that requires paper tickets. I leave for Europe BEFORE my paper tickets are supposed to arrive at my address in Canada. What should I do in order to get those tickets before the scheduled train ride?

Hello everyone,I have a question regarding the transfer of my interrail pass to a new phone. I have my interrail journey planned out for this summer (July) but have recently purchased a new phone. I want to set this phone up but I am afraid that I will not be able to backup/load my rail planner app with the right journey. Will I lose my data if I attempt transferring to a new phone? Does anyone have tips for setting up the app on a new phone without losing my interrail pass or having to manually redo the entire journey. Kind regards,Julian

Hi everyone.I have a 2 month eurail pass and am attempting to reserve seats for trains from Marseille to Avignon on the 13th of August and Avignon to Paris on the 14th. I don't mind what time the train leaves and hence have been attempting all different available trains throughout the days, however, every time I attempt to “proceed to payment” I get a notification stating “One of the legs of your journey is not available anymore. Please try searching for another connection”. I haven't has this issue with any of my other trains, so am unsure why this is occuring.Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks, Jamie 

I’ve just bought a 3 day France only pass for myself and my son. I’ve booked Paris > Arles on TGV for the 1st day of my pass with a seat reservation of 24 euros which I was expecting. I’ve then gone to book a train Toulon > Marseilles (TER train - 1 hour) then Marseilles > Bordeaux (Intercité train - 6 hours) for the 2nd day of my pass.   And it’s now saying I need a seat reservation of 49 euros for the Marseilles > Bordeaux section?? I thought regional trains didn’t require seat reservations? And this seems very expensive compared to my TGV reservation. Can anyone explain this? I feel a bit misled as all the information about the pass on the website says that you only need seat reservations for fast trains - TGV and sleepers..Hoping it’s an error….

I have a 7 day Eurail pass that I intend to use next month. I made reservations with Trenitalia for a trip from Milan to Venice. My plans have changed and I now want to travel 8 days by train. It would cost me less to pay for a ticket instead of using my Eurail pass between Milan and Venice, and use my pass on a more expensive trip. Can I keep my reservation and buy a ticket, or do I have to use the pass? The reservation says I’m using my pass.

Im planning my euro trip and im looking for trains from Milan to Munich, there's one that doesn't require a seat reservation but im not able to book it  

I bought a Eurail Global pass for an upcoming family trip across Europe.  I’ve been able to make a 4 seat reservation for a train from Bordeaux to Narbonne (ultimately on to Barcelona from there). When making the reservation, I was unable to actually choose the floor, or seats.  I was looking for four seats facing each other, on the upper deck...preferably in the family section.  The site just automatically assigned me four seats. I have no idea where these seats are on the train, if they’re in the family section or if they are facing each other.   Before I bought Eurail pass, I almost purchased a group of tickets from the site without using a pass. That process allowed me to choose the type of seat and section.  I’m thinking I may be just done it wrong this time.  Any words of wisdom or tips?Thanks in advance. 

HiMyself and one other are trying to book a train on 26th June from Lake Bled to Split. The train we were looking at is 7.31 bled to Zagreb, and then 15.19 Zagreb to Split. We are having trouble getting seat reservations and very unclear as to why whether it is sold out or not we are not sure.If a train requires seat reservations can I still board without a seat and sit on ground/stand?Any help would be greatly appreciated

How do you transfer by public transport from Milan Garibaldi Train station and Milan Central train station? do you buy a ticket or use the global pass?Where do you find the public transport in Milan Garibaldi? thank you

Question... when traveling in trains can I carry two bags (one is backpack and second is a small suitcase bag)? Thank you in advance

On 1st July, I will be travelling from Zurich to Amsterdam! I have already made my sleeper reservations on NJ402 thru OBB, which shows it's a direct train. Later, I went to Eurail to book the train, however, there comes the confusion. In Eurail, the train with number NJ402 shows that I need to transfer to another train in Utrecht (IC 3022). If I select this, the train journey will be counted as 2 days, instead of one.  There is another option for a direct train, which weirdly departs on the same time. The number of that train is IC 60402.  Now, I am very confused which option should I select. Is IC 60402 and NJ402 the same train? I don't want to waste 2 days on a single train journey, where in reality, it is supposed to be a direct train. Help will be much appreciated 👍

I’ve been trying to book a seat from Paris to Antibes for the past couple of days, but every time I try to get to the “review payment” page, this error message keeps popping up for multiple days/times - one of the legs of your journey is not available anymore. Please try searching for another connection. Does this mean that all railpass seats are sold out? 

Hello all,If anyone could assist with the following inquiry it would be much appreciated.I currently have been living in Turkey, we own a flat here.  Is Turkey considered as part of Europe?  From what I’ve read it seems as though it is.   I ask this question because it makes a difference whether I purchase Eurail pass or Interail passes for an upcoming trip to Europe.Thank you, Mark

Hi everybody!I try to find the answer on the communiste but i do not find it.I bought an interrail pass but i was not aware about the difficulties with bikes!!! :)I finally find how to book tgv in France with bikes (call sncf many times to find someone Who know the way or go to the train station) and i am now in germany. It looks easier but i have à doubt.So i try to book train from mannheim to munchen the 18th of july with 4 bikes.the options bike and interrail are available on DB.com :)At the final, it proposés to me tickets at 18€ for 4 tickets. It looks that it is the seat booking fées without bikes and the website does not speak about bikes at all.Do you think that the bikes are included or not ?Must I call DB to book for the bikes ?I hope you understand my doubts! Thanks for your help!

Are there certain accesses to train stations in specific cities only according to the Eurail pass that you buy? Like if you buy the two month pass verses the 4 day in one month pass, do you have access to more train stop locations?Because when I click on various passes, they offer different maps..

I have booked seats on EC175 from Berlin to Prague in July. We are a family of 4. It appears the seats automatically assigned 4 window seats Pl 81 82 85 86,   Any ideas how to change this the contact form on the DB website errors out when I try to complete it

Hi! I’m travelling solo this summer throughout Europe, and this is my first time using eurail!  I bought a 22 days pass so I’m hoping to travel by train as much as possible (in terms of travelling between cities/ countries) and not resort to other transport such as plane/ bus etc..  I need to go from Copenhagen to Amsterdam (or Utrecht) on 27 July, which requires me to first take a train to Hamburg  I saw on the DB website (https://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en?ld=43108&protocol=https:&seqnr=1&ident=2s.08833108.1685120803&rt=1&OK#hfsseq2|2s.08833108.1685120803) that I can go by a direct night train EN345 which operates on 27 July 2023 and is operated by SJ and reservation is compulsory I then went to SJ’s website (https://www.sj.se/en/kop-resa/valj-resa/K%C3%B6benhavn%20H/Hamburg%20Hbf/2023-07-27) to make a reservation but couldn’t find EN345 here nor any trains by SJ from Copenhagen to Hamberg that allows me to reserve any trains   Now I have these questio
