Get ready to travel

I am wanting to travel from the UK to Switzerland and Germany. Am I able to use the Eurostar from London to Paris or Brussles with Eurail pass. Is this possible even if I start in the UK/London? ie is a train from the UK included even though I am British and from the UK?

Hi, I am new to Eurail and having a problem with booking some trains through France. We are a group of 6 travelling from Barcelona to Avignon, Avignon to Nice and Nice to Lyon in mid-June. All of the trains we want are ‘seat reservation required’. We are able to add the trains to our cart, but then we get the ‘one of the legs of your journey cannot be booked’ error message each time. I have tried booking for less passengers because I read there may be a 5 person limit for booking, but the same error message still comes up. Can someone please explain why this may be happening and how we can get the booking to work?Thank you in advance!! 

We would like to take a ferry from Savona to Barcelona. Can we find the time table and cabin prices (the ferry takes 17 hours) in the rail planner? 

Hey Community, does somebody know why Interrail isn’t providing a booking platform for train journey in europe? They already have their business partners, so why make it so complicated? I mean there is “thetrainline.com” but even there you actually don’t book your tickets together, when you travel internationally. You always buy seperate tickets together, which has plenty of disadvantages.

First time user. Travelling from Aus to Europe in June. My first train trip will be Paris to Zurich oh June 10. I have logged onto my eurail account and clicked on seat reservations. My pass is first class. It seems to be telling me the seat reservation is over $100 😩. Is that right.   

Im confused. I purchased first class eurail pass and ended up standing for 2hrs and was also told that if i wanted to use the first class area no seat reservation required  i had to pay extra.  Whats the point of first class travel if i cant get into a first class carriage.  

My daughter is currently studying in the UK for 4 years and has a student visa. She has an American Passport. Do purchase an Interrail pass for her or can I purchase a Eurorail pass with the rest of our family?

When booking the tickets for our family trip in Italy, I erroneously entered my stepfather’s information as Ms. and not Mr. Would this be a concern, or is it not a big deal?

Good night!  22/06 I’ll take Bernina Express from Chur to Tirano and arribes at 12:49.  The same day I hacve to arribe to Venice, and I have a FrecciaRossa from Milan to Mestre at 18:45.  Problem is that there will be some railworks and Trenord told me that timetables not will be ok till 11/06.Wich will be the best way to arribe from Tirano to Milano between 13 and 18:30 hours on 22/06? There will be buses from Tirano to Milano or to another station where I can take another train to Milano? This buses will be at Tirano’s station and  how to reserve a place at them or buy tickets thankyou so much to all

I’m trying to decide between buying point to point or Eurorail --- the most expensive part of the trip is the Eurostar from London to Paris. But I can’t see where I can make sure seats are still available using the pass on the specific day I need to travel. Suggestion?? Thanks!

Bought my first ever Interrail Pass (Global Pass) today. First trip will be The Hague to Labenne in France. The planner gives a trip with a 5 minute connection time on Rotterdam Centraal (stoptrein to Thalys). So isn't it better to take an earlier train from The Hague to Rotterdam? And can I use that earlier train as an outbound trip?

Does anyone know when I can book a high speed train from Tirano to Florence for September 7th

Hi, just trying to clarify how outbound / inbound travel can be used.  From UK, would I be allowed to travel from Edinburgh to London and then eurostar to Paris, as my outbound journey if all in one day, or only the Eurostar leg?  And if I did either of these and no more travel that day, does it count as one of my (probably 7) travel days?  Thanks!

Hi,I am new and finding this all very complicated, honestly wishing I had never bought the pass.I have a mobile global first class pass and planning to travel next week.I have read loads of previous questions and have been searching trips, adding them to My Trip and then to My Pass to show tickets.Really appreciate some help to my questions-1) I have read that although I have a ticket, it doesn’t guarantee a seat on the train, for trips with no reservations needed, do I now have to find out the train company and see if I can make reservations?2) My pass shows a bar code for the day with several trips, does that ticket/bar code cover every trip for the day?3) Do all trains have first class carriages? Trips without reservations, do I just look for seats in first class and if none available, go to 2nd class?4) Some trips have a very short transfer to change trains, is there a way of finding out platform numbers before arriving so I don’t miss the train?I am so confused and with only havin

On our mobile pass, stands EXPired. We planned our trip for this tuesday! What to do? We could use it up to the end of  May! All the trips stands in the schedule.

Hi,I got awarded with my Inter-rail pass in June 2022, claiming that pass’s due day for activation to be May 2023 and the last day for use to be June 2023.I haven’t used any of my traveled days nor used a train but the app says that my Pass has expired although I haven’t used it yet.I was planning to use in on February so I need urgent help.I would be glad if anyone were to help.

Hi. I’ve seen on here that its not possible to reserve seats online for Zagreb - Split trains. Would anyone who’s been interrailing in Croatia recommend booking reservations on the day, or taking an alternate route? We are travelling in May. Thank you!

My interrail pass expired like 3 days ago and I did not get the chance to activate it (because I didn’t event knew that I had to do that). I tried to reach costumer support and they did not try to help me. If there’s anyone who had the same problem and has a solution please let me know.  Please don’t answer if you did not have the same problem.

My pass expired about a week ago. I forgot to book my first trip. Is there anything I can do? It was a 3 months pass 😔.

I live in Northern Ireland. Given that the whole island of Ireland is regarded as a single entity for Interrail purposes does this mean that a Global pass which I buy would be valid for unlimited travel in Great Britain? Similarly, am I able to buy a Great Britain single country pass (as would be the case if I lived in the Republic of Ireland)?

I have a Eurail Pass (30 day travel) and I am trying to book from Copenhagen to Berlin hbf on an overnight.I am going to the DSB reservation site and I put in all the relative data in (passengers, age, etc...) but I can not find how to put in the fact I have a Eurail Pass into this booking!Question... Where do I submit the fact I have a Eurail Pass? Thank you and TIA!!

Can you advise me on how to use my Eurorail Pass for a trip from Paris to Bern.Do we need to make a reservation?  Can we make the reservation the day before? What would be the best route?   Thank you

I have a Global Pass and have already used it to travel to Amsterdam and now going to Germany and Italy in a few weeks but on the app its says the outbound/inbound 2/2.I am based in the UK so taking the Eurostar to Paris and then onwards.Thing is I have already got and paid for seat reservations for my Germany and Italy trips including the Eurostar legsI contacted customer services and they said I can still travel within Germany and Italy with my Global Pass but my Eurostar journeys won’t be allowed (even though I have printed tickets for them)Can I still used my Eurostar tickets as buying brand new ones directly with Eurostar is between £150-200 for the dates selected for my Germany and Italy trip.

I’m planning on using an Interrail Pass to go from Frankfurt to Béziers this August. My question is, how high my chances are for getting a seat reservation for all of the members of my group, we’re 10 people (!). We’re planning on first going Frankfurt → Paris then Paris → Béziers.Interrail only allows us to book tickets 90 days in advance, I am scared that this may be too late given the busyness of trains to France in August. Does anybody have any experience or tips?Best wishes, Vlad

I have a first class Interail ticket. Can I use the DB lounge in Berlin hbf before my journey ?Many thanks.
