Get ready to travel

I booked and paid for reservations from Rome to Palermo for 13/4/23 on train 1955. After paying for the overnight train, ($265) for two people, we were assigned seats that appear to be not together. Seats 31 and 22. Is this correct so we are in sleeper cars together? Please assist me because I would hate to be in separate seating (not together) and not in sleeper car.Thank you!

Hi everyone, I was trying to book seat reservations (for Eurail pass holders) for a train from Paris Gare de Lyon to Nice Ville on 13 May on travel.b-europe.com, it came up with two different options of the same departure time (13:54), both trains are direct trains with the exact same travel time, departure time, and arrival time.One of the train number is TGV6077 with a beverage symbol next to it and shows all the stops along the way. The other train number is TGV6177 without a beverage symbol and shows no stops along the way. So my question is are these trains both exactly the same or TGV6177 doesn't serve drinks and without stopping while TGV6077 serves drinks and stops in all the stops showing in the details?Are both these trains TGV INOUI?Thank you so much in advance.Please refer to the pictures below:   

Hello,We’re two persons who wants to go from Denmark to Amsterdam. Earlier this week we were able to find tickets for the journey with three traveldays, making it possible for us to go back and forth + one day with an excursion.But it suddenly seems like it has vanished from the website, leaving us with 4 traveldays as our only option, plus the tickets appr. 130 euro more expensive.Does anyone know if the 3 day ticket still is available?Thanks in advance.  

My daughter will be 11 years 8 months when i am planning to visit Europe. Is she considered as child, mean to say as she will not turn 12. guess very silly question 🙂

Last year I bought a Global Pass 1st class (15 days in 2 months) and it costed 680 euros (just checked my bank account). Maybe I want to buy this pass again this year, so I checked and I noticed the price is 657 euros, 23 euros less. Of course cheaper is nice, but since everything has become more expensive, I wonder if this price is the correct one. Anyone who can tell me?

I want to reserve seats on a direct trip May 27 TGV 9245 (Paris - Milan). But when I try, I see in my cart Torino- Milan. It is supposed to be a direct train. Even if I have to change trains in Torino - I do not see an option to reserve Paris to Torino. Can the reservation be done on line? (I activated my pass). THank you

hello, we want to travel this summer from Amsterdam to Istanbul with stops in Berlin, Budapest, Zagreb, Belgrado, Sofia with final destination Istanbul. Is is possible to do this now? I can only find a ticket from Amsterdam to Berlin and the rest is only 90 days or 60 days before departure and the train from Budapest to Zagreb I can’t find?

My friend and I have purchased the 3 month global eurail pass. I just want to confirm that the only thing we have to do is reserve seats on the trains? Do we have to get tickets? For example we have booked seat reservations for London to Paris through the rail planner app, and we have these sent to our email. Is there anything else we need to do or do we then rock up for the train on the day? Thank you!!!  

I am going to Paris > London > Switzerland > Italy & intend to buy the 4 days within 1 month Global pass.2 questions:1. If I plan to depart London at 2200hrs on Day 1 & arrive Switzerland at 0900hrs on Day 2, will it be considered as 1 or 2 travel days?2. Do I have to pay additional for the "transfer by public transport" during stops / change between stations?Advice much needed!

Hello,i am travelling this summer with the 7 days in a month pass and i want to go from Sofia to Istanbul with the night train. I heard that i can buy my ticket at the station but i was wandering if it count as a travel day. I’d like to know if buying a ticket at the station is different than adding a journey to the pass. Also, i want to do the same with the ferry from patra (greece) to ancone(italy) and from ancone to split. I think there is a discount for people travelling with an interrail pass but i don’t know if this kind of journey count as a travel day.if anyone know…

J ai un flexi 15 jours sur 2 mois. Les 2 jours entrant et sortants sont ils compris dans les 15 jours et si oui donc doivent ils être notes comme des jours de voyage

Hi. We’re a family of four trying to book (2nd class) seat reservations for April. We’ve managed to get reservations via the eurail website for our Amsterdam to Bruges journey but the journey down to Lyon and then back up Paris is drawing blanks on all trains on all days. Surely not all of the pass holder allocations have booked already?  Any advice or help very much appreciated as I am losing the plot trying to figure out how or where to get these reservations booked.

We live in the UK and purchased an interrail global pass back in October 2022 and planning on using the pass from July 2023 around Europe for 3 months, is this okay with the new rules in place with the EU or would we need to purchase an Eurail pass. 

My plan is to buy the pass then aim to travel from UK to France at the start of March. I don’t have a set date and I don’t have a set schedule; just stop where I like depending on the weather and move on when I’m done. Planning to circle Europe (through France down to Monte Negro, then back up and across to Spain and Portugal before returning to UK via France. The ‘7days in a month’ pass looks the best deal to me.My question is: do I need an itinerary? Every time I visit the Eurail site it keeps asking me for ‘destination’ and ‘plan your trip’…? My destination is back home eventually, and I don’t want to make a set plan…...is this Ok with Eurail or do I need to specify anything?Many thanks, Andy 

Est il obligatoire de partir de son pays de résidence 

I would like to make seat reservations with our Eurail passes for the following train:July 16, Stuttgart 14:52 - Paris Est 18:05, ICE 9572. Seat reservations are required. The Rail planner app says that you can book this train only up to 90 days in advance, but tickets are already for sale at DB, for example. Can I book seats directly on the DB website or some other way? Thank you.

Chatbot tells me that some buses operated to rail companies are covered by the Interrail pass. However, it is not clear to me how I am supposed to establish whether this applies to a route I wish to take, from Roscoff ferry port to Morlaix in France..How can I find out?

I am from Australia and I am travelling through Europe for 6 weeks starting early June. I will travel by train. PAR - ZUR - APPENZEL - LUCERNE - INNSBRUK . FUSSEN - MUNICH. And later MUN - BUDAPEST. I have done a lot of searching on this community page but I don’t understand how I book my rail tickets and pay with the pass at all. Sorry, in my defense I’m 62 ! 

Hi everyone, We're planning on getting the one-country-pass for Italy. Our country of residence is Switzerland. So the ticket won't be valid in CH, only after the border.The connection will be Bern-Milano-Rome. I can't figure out how to get a ticket from Bern to Milan. Will the interrail ticket be valid from the border (Domodossola) or only after the first stop in Italy?The lady at the SBB counter said I needed to purchase the Anschlusszug-ticket from Bern to Milan (?) via Interrail, not via SBB. I can't find any info on connecting trains on the interrail website…HELP! Thank you so much.

First of all - thanks to all on the forum for the clarifications provided over the last few days.  You have eased my path significantly.What I think I’ve realised is that the term trip as used in the Interrail context seems to be misleading.  Trip as used in the app is a collection of potential moves from point A to point B, point B to point C, but also point B to points D, E, F, G & H - it’s like a pick list or a wish list.  You can define any number of journeys in a trip, and you can travel on some or all of them.  So it’s not actually a trip.  Your actual trip may go A-B-C-H, or maybe A-B-C-E.A trip in Interrail terms is only a list of possible travel legs which may or may not be taken.A trip in ordinary usage is an actual journey - “I’m planning a trip from Edinburgh(A) to Nice(D), via London(B) and Paris(C).” or “I took a trip from Edinburgh(A) to Milan(H), via London(B) and Paris(C).  I went to Milan instead of Nice because the weather was bad in Nice on the day.”It may seem

I am trying to buy seat reservations for France. It’s slightly more than 90 days so I can’t book the reservations through the Rail Planner app as they are not available yet.However each time I look the trains seem to be booking out quickly so is there a way I can book them on the French rail SNCF website? I can’t find where to do it anywhere through the search function on their website. 

Is having kids in 1 class “disrespectful” in southern Europe? I feel like 1 class is a bit more like a “business people class” in Italy and Spain. Don’t want to upset any business men who paid a premium price only to get the seat next to a 7 year old

I have just purchase my global pass today and I am trying to make a reservation.  Why would it show that the train that I am booking requires a seat reservation but at the same time does not engage so that I can actually reserve a seat.  If the train is fully booked, I would hope that it would tell me so but it does not.  The seat reservation is for 3 months from today.

hello to everyone! can anyone tell me the best route for two months on europe by interrail ?? ty!!!

If the train that I want to add into my trip say “ seat reservations recommended “Must I buy the seat reservation?or it is no problem if I don’t buy this
