Get ready to travel

Hallo, ich hab mir zwar schon einige Beiträge hier im Forum dazu durchgelesen, aber so richtig verstanden habe ich es trotzdem nicht. Und zwar habe ich meinen Pass jetzt schon aktiviert. Allerdings überlege ich mir eventuell vor Reisebeginn ein neues Handy zuzulegen (zwecks besserer Kamera etc.). Jetzt stellt sich mir aber die Frage, ob (und wenn ja wie) ich den Pass auf meinem neuen Handy wieder aktiviert bekomme. Der Reisezeitraum hat natürlich noch nicht bekommen und wenn ich im Pass selbst oben auf die drei Punkte gehe, wird mir die Möglichkeit des Dealtivierens angezeigt, als auch den Pass auf ein anderes Gerät zu verschieben. Geht das darüber oder muss ich den Pass über einen anderen Weg verschieben? Ich danke schonmal für eine Antwort! :)

Hello travelers!If I choose a one country pass (like Italy, for example) is it possible during one day of travel to only cross a country like Switzerland? Because I'm living in Dijon and to join Venice, I have to cross Switzerland.Thank you in advance :)

For certain dates (London to Amsterdam) the Eurostar site says “Sorry, no trains are available on this date. This could be because the train is sold out, the service is not running, or because tickets are not yet on sale. Please try a different travel date, or check back later.”It’s quite important to know what the reason is - if the train is sold out or not running, fair enough, I’ll plan my visit for another date. But if tickets just aren’t on sale yet, I’d still like to plan my visit for that date and book as soon as tickets go on sale. Does anyone know how to find out? I have filled out a Eurostar query form but they sent me an irrelevant response and then closed the case!

I am looking to book train from Interlaken to Winterthur Switzerland.  All trips for May 6 and 7, 2023 are coming up like this: 07:00INTERLAKEN OST (Switzerland)2h 29mIC 809IntercityShow facilitiesYou're ready to boardYou can buy a seat reservation if you like but it's not required.Prices unavailableNo price results were found. Pass holder reservations may be sold out for this connection, but there are other ways to check for available seats—more info below our timetable.More informationShow all stops09:29WINTERTHUR (Switzerland) Any help on how I can book this train trip or is the train not running on Saturday and Sundays? Do I need to book directly with the train company itself on the weekends?  Thank you so much in advance for any help you can give.

I bought the pass through another site.I'm currently traveling and would like to make a reservation for a train, but the app doesn't display the reservation button.That's why I want to book through the website instead of the app.However, web reservations require me to have a pass and be logged into my account.So I just created a new account.However, I don't know how to link the newly created account with the pass I purchased on another site and have already started using.How can I connect in this case? Also, how can I make a reservation for the train?  I'm sorry if it's hard to read because it was written mainly using a translation app.

Is that normal that my reservation made on Eurail, which is now showing in my summary of reservations, has no indication of a link to any rail pass?  It seemed to pull information (class, passengers) from trip information but mentions nothing on the e-billet that I am a pass holder.

Hello: I am trying to help my parents plan their trip through France this summer.  I was looking into the reservation process and costs for certain trains and it seems that almost all the Nice to Paris trains say Pass not valid.  Similarly the two earliest trains from Annecy to Nice said Pass not valid. These dates were for June and aren't even on sale yet so they can't be sold out. Is it just the certain trains do not allow use of the EU rail pass? Thank you!

Higlobal pass can be used to get benefits or offers in many services. my question is, 'would using the pass to get such benefits be considered using the pass one day. for example, if I have a 5 day pass and use it only for benefits any of the days, does it mean that day is considered one of 5 days?’ thanks in advance

Llegamos a Madrid, el 19 de mayo y queremos comprar el Eurailpass 4 días en un mes, ya que estaremos hasta el 6 de junio. Queremos ir a La Toscana en Italia. Como puedo diagramar mi viaje? Gracias

Maybe someone who has been to Spain in the last year or so can help me. I was able to get all my seat reservations from DB on paper. Can I just go to my train using the interrail pass and the reservation or do I have to trade the reservation in Spain into a different ticket of some sorts?

Hey! Is it considered to be safe to travel alone on interrail? Is there something that i need to know about in this case? Like i am wondering if something happens and I miss a train so that I am stuck at a train station at the middle of the night, would that be dangerous?

Hello!I have a question about my 4 day interrail ticket!!Ive been wondering;If my night train starts at 6pm and arrives at 4am the next day. Does the journey count as 1 or 2 traveldays??thanks, Madita 

I have created two trips wtth 2 different passes as the app would not let me link 2 passes to the same trip.

Hi! So I’m traveling in mid-april to Europe and I have an Eurail pass. The thing is, I incorrectly made reservations for a train leaving on 2/26 (didn’t check the date correctly, silly me). My question is, will a ticket reservation activate my Eurail pass? Or does that incorrect reservation simply gets lost in limbo, and I continue as usual with my (now correct) train reservation for mid-April?

Confused about the use of trips. I have a  2 month pass and have created a trip which I intend to share with my wife. However, I intend to make another shorter trip independently; the app has a + feature for multiple trips, but will not allow me to connect the new trip to my pass ( only option is connect to paper pass?). What is going on? Can I create and connect multiple trips in app or not?

Hi, i‘d like to take a trip to London. Now there are 2 posible Trains from Paris to London. If we get the first one, it would be fabulous, because the second would be very stressful to get our appointment in London. Now is there a option to do a seat reservation in both of the Trains, and get the one unneeded canceled?Thanks for respond.

Hello thereWhen I have a passport from country A and in this passport my residential country is documented as Country B: What is my residential country? A or B or can I chose?Thanks in advance!

Hi there,Does anyone know if there’s some quirk with the booking engine for booking EN trains?Last night I mapped out options on oebb.at for every possible destination (NJ & EN) from Zurich for a particular weekend (28th or 29th or 30th April) yesterday and later in the night agreed the plans with the others who are traveling.Tonight I went to book Zurich-Zagreb and it shows no availability at all for any of the 3 days.  Yesterday it showed availability for all.  Sleepers & couchettes for 29th & 30th and seats only for 28th.I know it’s possible that they all suddenly sold out in theory, but in practice it’s not exactly likely that there was a sudden rush for this particular train, for all of these days, in less than 24 hours.Is there some quirk like seats being taken back off the market and then being put back on?  Or is there some other explanation for this?Thanks,David

Hi Everyone, My name is Maddy and I am 24 years old. I have been looking to travel for a few years now but with a diagnosis of ADHD and Autism I worry about sensory and information overload. I have travelled with friends before and have been fine but that has been a more static holiday, so no travelling abroad other than on foot or to and from the airport.  I was wondering if anyone had any advice or tips on how to make the experience as smooth as possible? Has anyone got any dos or don’ts for planning?  Thank you in advance for your assistance! ☺️

Are the Nordland trains included in the pass, Trondheim Bodo?

Hi everyone! I am trying to buy a ticket from Bucharest to Sofia (and also Sofia to Istanbul afterwards), both for me (with a Eurail global pass) and my son (who doesn’t have one). I’ve seen a couple of other people here trying to work out how to buy these tickets online, but they don’t seem to be available from the main national rail websites. Since we are on a fairly tight schedule, and need to book accomm. etc in advance (and not have any probs with full trains etc), we really want to try and book in advance. So the question is: did anyone manage to do this, and if so -- how? Any experiences or feedback gratefully recieved...the trip is for April (7-10) btw, and I would be happy to just book the tix without the Eurail pass if that’s easier. Thank you :)

Hi there we are travelling to Europe in April/May 2023 from Australia for our Honeymoon which was postponed from 2020. We have a 1st Class Eurail Pass and I am having trouble booking seat reservations for the following journeys: (IC143) Amsterdam Centraal - Berlin Hbf / 9:10 - 15:25 on 20/4/2023(EC360) Prague Hlavni Nadrazi - Munich Hbf / 7:43 - 13:18 on 28/4/2023 For the IC143 train, it allows me to get to the review page however states that it the journey is no longer available, this is also the case on the Bahn website and other times and dates. The EC360 train does not allow me to book seat reservations on any day, this is also the case on the Bahn website.Is anyone else having the same issues? Or am I attempting to book to early, I had no problems booking Berlin to Prague on the 26th of April. 

Has anyone ever used balkan flexipass? Balkan flexi pass is cheaper with global pass. Balkan flexi pass is cheap and I live in turkey. I'm thinking of using Balkan flexipass on my first trip.Resource for first timers: https://rail.cc/balkan-flexi-pass
