Get ready to travel

I went to the Austrian rail site OEBB and did a search between some smaller towns, and it gave me bus routes instead of train routes. Does the Global Pass cover those buses? It seems they might be operated by OBB or affiliated with it. For example between Oztal and Reutte.  (By the way, I did a search from Vienna to Hallstat on the Eurail site and it came up empty, so thats why I started using the OEBB site)

Dear train journey lover, Planning our trip in Scandinavië I have to take the train from Oslo to Kil. We have a short transfer (5 minutes) in Kongsvinger. We need to catch this train otherwise we'll be stuck and miss all the reservated trains later. Does anyone know if this is a big station? Is ot possible to catch the train to Kil?Thank you for helpingFroukje 

I’m planning on going to bologna on monday. the suggested time in munich is too short, so i want to take one train to munich very early, and then take one from there to bologna. i have to create two trips for that, is that fine or would the first one ( hamburg-munich) already count as inbound ? 

I asked this question last week but didn’t get any useful responses.I bought a 5-day pass for a trip and I am wondering if I should use a 4 instead, especially since I cashed my itinerary.June 16: Train to and from Auschwitz and krakow. Night train to pragueJune 20: Train from Prague to Vienna.June 22: train from Vienna to Munich June 25: night train from Munich to Paris.I should be fine with only 4 correct?

Hello!I’m trying to book a train from Milan to Tirano on June 28th (Trenord, not included in the pass apparently) and for some strange reason there are no trains available. Same thing in late June in general. Anyone knows what’s going on? Really no trains?? Thanks,Anna 

We have booked a Eurail travel day for 6th July and have booked reservations on the Golden Pass train.At the moment it does not go from Interlaken due to disruptions.Do we have to book Interlaken to Zweisimmen with the local rail BLS separately, and will our Eurail pass cover this please and we just need seat reservations, or new tickets?

thanks a lot for all the infoIt helped me.I still have one doubt: when traveling from Epernay (France) to Belgium (Brussels) I don't want to use my inbound trip, because i will need it later on for another tripHow do i book now my trip from Epernay to Brussels? do i pay the whole trip or can i split it up and pay only the part from the border France to Belgium? and how?

May 5th, madrid puerta de atocha to Barcelona Sants, 19:00-21:30. To reserve it says Eurail cannot reserve, and only options are in person at train station, or by email and there’s no email. does this mean the train is fully reserved, or is it a first come first serve basis and you have to get there and reserve it in person?if the latter, how early should I get to the train?

Hello!I am already on the road (railway) heading to Stockholm. I would to visit both Sweden and Norway and enjoy the landscape that offer a railway travel. I planned, for now, this simple route:Stockholm - Oslo - Bergen - Oslo - Trondheim - Bodo - Oslo - Malmo - Copenaghen I was thinking also to do the route Stockholm - Narvik, but it seems like very long and with no interesting intermediate stops.  Do you recommend it anyway? What about Finland?I was able to book with SJ to get in Sweden. About Norway is it true that is it possible to reserve only by phone(Entur)?On the app I see ALL trains need a reservations, is it correct?Thank you :D 

Help! I need 17 seats on a high-speed train to Florence from Rome. I was able to add 9 people to the reservation, but the site will not let me add the other 8. What can I do? 

Hi all! First time Traveller from Australia 😊 currently making our way across Europe and we're in Berlin at the moment! I wanted to clarify something about this 22 day Eurail pass, but I think I may already know the answer... my friends and I purchased 22 days, but it's for 22 consecutive days, correct? My friends and I will be travelling across Europe for a month. I feel like I may have made a mistake in buying this ticket instead of a different one…We're hoping to visit several countries, but we don't really have a particular time/dates when visiting cities. We'll be going to Rome, Naples/Pompeii, Sevilla, Barcelona, Paris and then London where we fly out on the 31st of May. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

I have a list of trips in MY TRIPS. However I fail to attach them to my pass. There is a note on top: Not connected to a mobile pass.

We are planning on traveling from zermatt to como however in Milan there is a 15 minute transfer that says “transfer by public transportation”. There’s only 30 minutes to do this and I have no idea what kind of transportation there is or if it’s even provided. I don’t want to miss our train. Does anyone know what this could be? Thanks a ton for the help!! 

I have a global pass and want to travel fromParis to Zurich.I  have a reservation from Paris Gare Lyon to Basel SBB. But no reservation from Basel to Zurich.Can  I use the pass to take the next train to Zurich

Hi there, on the last day of my trip my pass suddenly disconnected from saved trip and I had to re- add the pass but I lost all the data (journeys etc) that were connected to that pass. Can you advise how I can recover this / reconnect the pass to saved trip/ consolidate the two trips on to the one pass ? I currently have two trips- one has most of the journeys but isn’t connected to the pass , and one is the new trip I had to create to get home!Many thanksFrancesca 

I think that the trip from Bucharest to Istanbul in May should count as one interrail day as there is a through sleeper from Dimitrovgrad to Halkali. My problem is that the Interrail app is coming up as two separate journeys on two separate days:Dimitrovdrad - Kapikule 22.50-00.45 on SaturdayKapikule - Halkali 2.30-6.34 on SundayHow do I avoid using two days of my 5 day pass?Thanks

Looking to travel from Bordeaux over to Spain to explore the Basque Country, San Sebastián and Bilbao would be ideal. However the trains don’t look the best, says it’ll be 26 hours of travelling which feels a bit much. is there anything we are missing or is that just the way it is? Cheers!,fraser 

I am traveling with my family and want to get a pass for us all - 3 of us are UK citizens and resident in the UK and one is citizen of the US and not resident in the UK (on a tourist visa).  Which pass should I get?

Buongiorno, Avrei alcune domande da fare. Con le mie cugine vogliamo fare un viaggio per L’Europa.Non mi è chiaro se  con il Pass si può fare un biglietto andata e ritorno nello stesso giorno? Es da Madrid Sevilla andata e ritorno nello stesso giorno?.  Poi in Francia vogliamo fare diverse fermate Marsiglia, Avignone, Lyon, Parigi. Si possono fare in due giorni di Pass o sono di più?Quando programma nel mappa il mio percorso le città intermedia me lo considera un giorno di viaggio.  

There have been a number of questions recently about upcoming track work in Sweden and people (including me) have said to check out the sj.se site for information on scheduled works.However, when I look at the page it talks of diversions and changes to schedules in April (last month) all the way back to February.  I don’t see much for for May and nothing for June.Is anyone aware of any more recent or up to date information?

Hi! My Friends and I are traveling to Greece for the summer and we wanted to buy the interrail Greece pass (not the island one) in order to discover continental Greece. However, when I use the interrail app to check the timetables of the trains from Athens to Thessaloniki and vice versa, it says that those trains are not available. What could be happening? It is going to be possible to travel Greece by train this summer? I know that last summer was not possible because some railway stuff... Anyways, thank you so much!

Hello, I have a flex pass of 5 days and I want to know how can I plan multiple destinations/ stops in 1 day ?For example: I will do Wurzburg-Germany => Nuremberg-Munich => Salzbourg-Austria..Should I set up every step each city or from Wurzburg => Austria is enough? Thanks

Hi all. im due to return to the uk from my 6 weeks interrailing in a fortnight. (Noooooo!!!) I arrive into London on the evening of the 16th on the Eurostar and plan to travel to glasgow the following morning. But does taking the Eurostar into London the night before count as my in bound travel day with my pass? Or can I still use my pass the following morning to get up to Scotland? just not quite sure how that bit works and wanting to plan ahead in case…
