Get ready to travel

Hello,I am planning a weekend trip to Paris (3 days) and I am not sure which pass I should buy.  What do I need for a 3-day-trip between France and Germany? Do I need the one country pass or the global pass? And can I use the Metro in Paris with my pass? 

I am student from Ukraine studying in Linkoping University Sweeden for Christmas Holidays I want to travel from Sweeden to Germany what kind of pass do i need to buy?

Hi. I am trying to buy a pass for 1 country in the website. After completing all, it asks the day I will start travelling, but I can't enter the date, 9th december. It appears the 23rd december and I can't change it.Can some one tell me what can I do??I am buying a pass on paper.Thanks a lot for reply. 

I am busy planning my itinerary for a European trip with my 18 year old son next year and I can’t seem to find any fast trains from Milan to Rome on May 18th. We have global passes and I’ve managed to do a reservation on Eurostar already. Is it too early to find them for Italian legs of our journey? I notice there are tonnes at the moment but the only train routes I can find for next May are 14 to 22 hours long for that leg. Yikes! We have a tight schedule at that end of the trip so want to know if I should wait or just book another carrier that’s not part of Eurail. Any insights or advice?

We cannot find night trains to any destination. e.g. from Milano to Paris, from Paris to Amsterdam Has anyone traveled generally by night trains? If yes, which was your destination? 

i need a ticket for me and my 3 year old son                                                                                          from Kaiserslautern/Germany to Turin/Italy and also which one do I need exactly?

Just read a short note on other forum that there will be a new sale-call it Schwarzer Freitag or venerdi negro if you so wish, starting 24/11 already (not seen for how long) on all types of at least the global passes.

Hello, I'm a bit stuck. We are flying into Helsinki on the 7th December and we want to catch the Santa Claus express that evening to Rovaniemi. The prices are Eur 49 p.p for a deluxe double sleeper cabin. havent been able to reserve online so I called the Eurarail help line. They can book me in but I'm confused as the prices are Eur 180pp now.Does this sound correct, as it's now cheaper to fly then take the train. 

There are still no trains scheduled in Serbia from 13. Dec onwards. Departures from Belgrade Central, 13-12-2022Does anyone know why that is, or when a new schedule will be published?Specifically, I would like to know if the train from Belgrade to Bar is going to continue or not.  

I am looking to book a journey from Prague to Hallstatt on Jan 5 and while the Eurail site shows that reservations are not required, for my anxious wife’s peace of mind I would like to try to reserve a seat wherever possible for our holiday.I have tried booking via eurail.com, oebb.at and cd.cz and selected various settings with either the Eurail pass discount or seat-only options and I have attempted to change the journey simply from Prague to Linz to try to reserve that seat. On all of the sites I haven’t been able to reserve seats so I was wondering whether the allocation for pass holders has been exhausted or if I am doing something wrong.I can see via the cd.cz site that there are still seats available to reserve, but when doing so I get the message “The booking period for this reservation has not yet begun or has already expired.”.The oebb.at site just says “No ticket required” and I don’t get the option to add on the Seat Reservation and eurail.com gives the generic “unavailable

I am new to Eurail and can’t seem to make seat reservations from Lisbon to Porto on Wednesday November 23, 2022. I am worried they won’t be available if we wait until we get to the station the day of. How can I buy these? Any advice for a newbie? Thanks in advance. 

My husband and I have purchased 3 month global passes online.  We have successfully made our first trip reservations for 14/12/2022 from London St Pancras to Brussels-Centraal but we are having trouble with seat reservations. We have attempted to purchase the seat reservations 5 or more times in the past 18 hours.  It accepts our cc info and we wait 30 minutes but no confirmation email is received.  Sometimes when we go back to start over (but not always), the seat reservations are sitting in our cart again.  We have tried making the seat reservations via the eurail website and the eurail app.  So far we don’t see any of the seat reservation charges on our credit card.We have also sent this question to eurail but reply said it could be two days or more.Help!

hello everyone! I’m Matilde, I’d like to try for the first time the interrail experience during the Winter holidays (from 26th December to 10/12 of January). I’d travel alone to Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris and Lyon. The idea is to be in Berlin for new year eve. considering that I’m a 22 year old woman would you recommend it? I have some doubts due to the cold temperatures and the fact that maybe is not the most popular moment for interrail so i Won’t meet anyone? To be honest I don’t know what to expect!

My family and I are planning to reserve tickets for Brussels-Zuid to Antwerpen-Centraal. We have a Mobile Global Pass. When searching for it on the Rail Planner, only ones with seat reservations required are shown. However, when searching on the Eurail website itself, it shows trains that don’t require it. Is there a way to sync them up or find the ones that don’t need reservations on the App?

On the Eurail website, there is a direct night train line between Prague and Budapest on December 20, but there is no such line on the mobile app. So I'm going to save the route as a manual in a mobile application and reserve a seat on the Eurail website. However, the payment continued to fail. Therefore, I made a reservation for a seat on the 12/20 Prague-Budapest direct night train by paying 502 koruna on the Czech train website. When I take the train, should I show the Eurail application that I manually registered and the ticket that I reserved a seat?

I’m holding Global Eurail Pass - 1st class, could you please suggest how to make seat reservation on Eurostar ? Here is my first time purchase e-ticket, so please help guide me how to do it I plan to travel from Paris to London on 30Dec, departure time around 8 am. I don’t know how to book seat only ? Which website ? And how to do it ?  As previous mentioned, I’m holding 1st class ticket for my global pass as well, can I know that the seat that I have to make a reservation is for 1st class or seat reservation cannot specific with class ?  Thank you 

Hello, i have a question about the 7 days in 1 month pass. Is every country included? Because i am planning a trip with stops in Vienna, Bled, Liubliana, Budapest, Prague, Copenhaguen and Stockholm but the price it gives me when i introduce these locations is higher so i don’t know if they are included or not.

For the routing that has required for seat mandatory, if the seat is full and cannot make reserve seat, can I still travel with my global pass without booking a seat ? 

Hi AllI have a 10 day in 2 month 1st class Eurail pass and I’m trying to book two reservations from Geneva to Paris on 2 Jan 2023 departing Geneva at 12:29 arriving Paris 15:45.  When I try to book the reservation on the Eurail reservation web site the first issue is it only give me an option to book 2nd class (rather than first class), and then when choose to select 2nd class i get an error message:“One of the legs of your journey is not available anymore. Please try searching for another connection” and also “ Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later or find another connection. This connection will be removed from your cart.”Is there a better website to book this reservation on or is there an issue with this particular train?Thanks for helping!
