Get ready to travel

Does anyone know the reservation fee of the Rest Compartment of the Bergensbanen (Oslo to Bergen) or the price for a normal seat reservation form Oslo to Bergen in July (peak season)?On several websites you can only see the reservation fees of the next couple of months, so only off-season. I guess the price will differ quite a lot...Thanks

Italia Notte - reservations for our intended trip are open on trenitalia but not visible on Eurail? How long does it normally take for them to shownup on this site? ( we are looking to book 1 x 2 berth deluxe and 1 x 3 berth deluxe on thr Rome to Palermo 20:31 departure on 6 April 2023. )the special fares on Trenitalia are still more expensive in this case than the pass holder reservations at this point   thank you   

Hey,Im going to buy 1 month of interrail. Im in between 1st and 2nd class. My question is therefore: when you buy a 1st class ticket, will the seat reservation cost more than 2nd class seat reservation? Thank you so much! From Hanna, norway🥰

Hi, i’ll be headed for europe this February and as i’m about to purchase my tickets for a Disneyland pass, it seems like the ticket is unavailable for purchase via the Veltra website https://feature.veltra.com/en/promotion/europe/paris/disneyland-paris/. Does anyone know where i can book my tickets at a discounted price since i’m a global eurail pass holder? Thanks

Ik heb een mobiele pas en ik heb mijn eerste reis gekoppeld aan mijn mobiele pas.Echter mijn tweede reis koppelen aan mijn mobile pas lukt niet.Wat kan hiervan de oorzaak zijn?Bijvoorbaat hartelijk dank en een gelukkig nieuwjaar.

Are there restriction when travelling with a snowboard on the trains? We are taking trains through Central Europe and will be packing our snowboards along with us. Do we need to reserve additional space? Thank you!!Alexis and Hayden :) 

Are there transfers like trains or trams, from Prague city centre (Prague Hlavni Nadrazi) to the airport and does this need to be pre booked? 

I’m planning on adding a stop to Pisa but using alternative transport instead of the interrail pass so it doesn’t use up one of my travel days. I want a one way ticket to Pisa from Florence. I’ve looked into flix bus but the pick up stop is very far away from where I’ll be staying. Are there trains which will take me there instead and do these have to be booked in advance. thanks.   

We are planning a trip to Switzerland in May.  We will be traveling from Paris to Berne.We would like to extend four to five extra days and travel on a couple of the Switzerland Scenic train trips.Can you tell me if we should have a Swiss Rail Pass or if the Eurorail will work as we will use that to get from Paris to Berne?Can you recommend three days of travel on trains, boats, etc that would get us to see the best of Switzerland and start and end up in Berne? We are senior citizens and really do not plan on hiking or doing lots in many cities, just seeing the views and getting off and on for meals and overnight. Thank you.   

I’m on an overnight train from Paris to Vienna and the conductor still hasn’t come around. It’s getting close to midnight and I’m worried when he asks to see my Eurail mobile pass it will not be there as the “travel day” will be over. The last pick up station is just after midnight. Is there anything I should or can do? I have our seat reservations, but what makes me most nervous is that this is the first time I’m adding a journey manually, as it was not in the rail planner app. Has anyone run into this problem before of a conductor not coming around until after midnight?

I received a 5-day interrail as a prize from a contest and would like to know If it's possible to turn in into a 10 days over two months pass and pay the extra supplement?

What’s the best way to get from Naples airport into the city centre (preferably Napoli central). Are there busses/trams that can take you, if so are they easy to find and do you have to pre book? Is this walkable as google maps says this is a 50 min walk.  

Hi All, If I am buying a eurail global pass, every trip that I can found at the rail planner apps is means that I can take the train? For example, I am planning a trip to Amsterdam, can I take Amsterdam Centraal to Zaandijik Zaanse Schans without paying extra cost to visit? Or, London St Pancras to Canterbury West also include in the eurail global pass?

Hello. We are looking at buying a 7 days/1 month global pass. The eurostar will be part of our trip. I understand you should book this as early as possible and can do so up to 180 days in advance. If we reserve our seats at the earliest possible time (180 days before travel), will that start our 1 month time limit? Or will the pass start when we actually take our journey on the eurostar itself? Many thanks. 

Hi everyone, I have some quick questions concerning the OBB Nightjet linking Brussels to Vienna.I’m a scout groupe leader and we’re going on a camp next summer (July 2023). We were planning on taking an Interrail pass for the whole groupe because we want to travel all by train. (let me know if any of you already took that train)Our first train would be the Brussels to Vienna nightjet and I can’t find some usefulll information.  First of all, how much does this journey coust with an interrail pass ? I found some people saying it costs only about 30€ and some saying they could’nt get any discount with their pass.   Secondly, I d’ont understand the concept of “private compartment”. It seems like its cheaper to take two private compartments of 3 people than taking a 6bed compartment which seems odd.  Hope anyone can help us for our camp. Have a good day y’all, Basile

Is anyone else going to be affected by next week's rails strikes in the UK?We're travelling home after our time away on Wednesday 4th January,  we booked Eurostar tickets etc in October when strikes were limited and the confirmed date was January 2 & 5th ..…We live in West Wales and the train strikes are now from January 2nd to the 7th ! I'm absolutely beside myself,  getting home is going to now cost us an absolute fortune,  by national express or taxi from london ! 

Hi everyone,I will travelling from London Waterloo to Staines (and vice versa) via South Western Railway. I have checked that the companies included in the Eurail Global pass coverage. However I am wondering if there is any barrier to enter the platform? And if yes, I don't think there is any QR code scanner on the barrier (i might be wrong). What is the best way to pass the barrier?Thank you.

Hello,If I have a pass for 1 month and my mother a pass for 2 months, bought in May, when must we finish our travels by? I understand we have to activate within 11 months (so April 2023), but if we begin our travels in April could my Mum continue travelling into May and past the 11 months? Or must we finish our travel within 12 months of buying the pass?Thank you, Emma

Bonjour, Je ne parviens à trouver quasiment aucun de mes voyages sur l'application. J'avoue que cela me freine à prendre mon pass. Arrivée à Budapest ou à Vienne, je souhaite aller jusqu'à Athènes mais j'ai essayé toutes les possibilités (Sofia, Belgrade, Skopje...) et je ne trouve rien.Comment faire ?  Merci d'avance, Noémie 

I get that my pass number and last name do not check, but that is what I have in the confirmation email and thanks to that I have not been able to book my train tickets and have struggled a lot.

Hi, this lovely community has been great help in understanding how to reserve tickets for Eurail passes. I understand that it is possible to reserve seats for travels within Italy via the OBB website. However, I currently hold the One-country Italy only Eurail pass instead of the global version. Since the only discount applicable for Eurail pass on the OBB website is ‘Interail/Eurail - Globalpass’, I was wondering if a One-country Eurail passholder like me will be able to use the OBB site to reserve seats. It will be great if there is someone who can share some insight if the tickets booked on the OBB site mentions anything about ‘Global pass’ as I do not want to get into trouble for booking the wrong tickets. Please help!  

Hello, I plan to make the following trip: Paris / Vienna then Vienna / Berlin and Berlin / Paris which pass do you recommend? Thanks in advance
