Hi everyone, I have a two month interrail pass and it is valid for another 1.5 months as of today. I recently used the pass for a journey which was more than an hour late. Should I wait till end of my pass for compensation of the delay (I plan to travel during the coming days), or can I do it already? Note: I know it's technically possible, but I'm looking for suggestions and best practice :)

Hey, I‘m Giovanna :)I’m travelling with an Eurail Pass trough Scandinavia at the moment. Unfortunately I got Corona and was very very I’ll the last days. Because of that, I had to stay longer in Stockholm, but forget because I was so ill, to cancel one of my travel days. Unfortunately it was the one to go back to my home country. Now I‘m in Stockholm and I want to go back, but I can‘t, because I lost my travel day. Is there any chance to get it back? I‘m a bit desperate. Thank you for any help!Greetings,Giovanna

Hello ,I will be having a EurailPass and Venice to Stuttgart would be my last leg of the journey.I am planning to  travel from Venice to Stuttgart in the following connections.NJ40236 Venice Santa Lucia(21:48) -München( 06:29) and then from München to Stuttgart.Now I understand that I have to take a separate ticket from München to Stuttgart.Can I do the following instead ? Buy a separate train ticket in NJ40236 Venice Santa Lucia(21:48) - Tarvisio Boscoverde (00:35)Buy a seat reservation in NJ40236 Venice Santa Lucia(21:48) -München( 06:29) .Now use the Pass to travel from München to Stuttgart ? The reason why I am doing this is train cost between Venice to Travisio Boscoverde is only 25 euros.I can catch any train from munich to stuttgart and not worry about delays in night jet. 

Hello to everyone, we are planning a  Interrail for the following two weeks and are planning to go to Scandinavia. We are starting in Freiburg in Southern Germany and our first stop is supposed to be Copenhagen. We have to change trains in Hamburg and we were wondering wether it would be possible to take the train from Freiburg early in the morning to Hamburg and spent some hours there and then taking the latest train possible to Copenhagen - is this allowed as a outbound trip? A big thanks

We are a family of 4 heading off interailing on 1 August. We have Eurostar reservations from London  to Brussels. We booked them a while ago but have somehow got standard premier reservations rather than standard - and our pass is 2nd class so doesn't cover standard premier. Our return reservations are fine. We only spotted this today when gathering bits and pieces together.We are not sure how this happened. To be honest our minds were frazzled at the time as one of our kids was in hospital for 8 days and was quite poorly.We have contacted Eurostar but the auto response says it might take 28 days to reply as they are busy.What are our options?  We are happy to pay any extra fees or whatever as it looks like our fault.    

Hello !I want to use my interrail pass to make a reservation on Grimaldi Lines but it doesn't work. I emailed the agency. They replied that my pass number is not valid. How is it possible ? Has this ever happened to anyone?  Thanks ! 

I just finished making my seat reservations for my trip on August 8th. I have the mobile pass. I was wondering when should I activate the pass and can I laminate the seat reservation e ticket?

Hi everyone, hope youre well.after a bit of a headache i realise i will not be needing as many journeys on my interrail pass so i was wondering how quick can they process an exchange from a 7 day to a 5 day as i will be needing it working by tomorrow morning for 6am.

I understand that you can have 2 in/out journeys within the total range of the validity of hte pass. I have chosen to use those for the first of 3 journeys. I have Eurostar reservations for all 3 journeys. This is what the journeys look like in my pass. They are all part of my single over-arching totally comprehensive trip. Note that the 3rd journey doesn’t have the little yellow-orange thing lit up. I can’t make it light up because it keeps nagging me about the ‘in/out’ journey thing. I thought the in-out thing applied to my Leeds-StPancras bit, not the whole Eurostar thing. Since there’s an option everywhere to ‘add another journey’, am I right in thinking that the lack of the little yellow thing on the 3rd journey doesn’t matter?? Sorry to be obsessed, but the last thing I need is to turn up and have to buy a £200 Eurostar ticket! 

Hi,I am an Indian citizen studying in Germany and have a German residence permit (Aufenthaltstitel) issued for the duration of my study period. Do I prchase Eurail or Interail pass since I have a non-EU nationality but have a residence permit from a EU country. 

I made seat reservations through OBB and our plans have changed. While the reservations are non-refundable, I would like to cancel them so the seats can be released for other people to use. Is this possible? I can’t seem to find a way on the OBB site.

I have now decided that I’m never buying Interrail ticket again. Terms and conditions of how the app itself work are not communicated clearly for people traveling for the first time, like me.It has never been mentioned to me and I have never been aware the Global pass functions on a principle that includes only 1 outbound and 1 inbound journey.That means all trips you make and travel days that are connected need to be connected with each other in order for you to use it. I have been the whole time in understanding that the 4 trips in 1 month mean that I can travel where I want 2 times (from my home country and back to it and that all 2 times). Apparently Interrail doesn’t function like that.I wanted to organize a trip to Paris from Berlin now, but the system refused to issue me the ticket with a warning: “No outbound/inbound journeys left”.My questions are the following:What do I now do with my Interrail Global pass, I have 2 days left? Are they now wasted and not usable?! What did I b

Hello!I am going to take the train from copenhagen to Barcelona to a conference, as part of this route, I had a sleeping compartment in a couchette from Hamburg to Basel Sbb. however, Öbb have not been able to secure enough couchette cars, so instead of a couchette I am offered a seat for the journey, and a partial refund. I think this is going to be a bit of a problem for me, since I am not sure I will be able to sleep in a seating carriage. any ideas what I can do instead? I have already booked the entire journey to Barcelona and back, and I dont think I can refund the travel and take the plane. Thanks in advance!

Myself, wife and kiddo are going to Paris, Switzerland and Belgium for a total of 8 days. Train from Paris to bern is about 500 total which seems about same price as a rail card for “4 days in a month.” I don’t understand what that even means. What do y’all recommend getting? Rail card or just booking as we go? 

Welches Ticket brauche ich um von Hamburg nach London zu Fahren ?

Hello everyone,I am new here and start my first journey with the GlobalPass in a few days.In the Rail Planner app I looked for my train connections. Unfortunately, some stations or even ferry connections are not displayed.Question 1: In this case, do I use the manual travel input in the app?Question 2: My ticket is then valid for the manually entered trip? What happens if I need reservations for the connection?Question 3: Where can I find information about which ferries I can use with my ticket? E.g. Zadar (station is not displayed in App) to AnconaQuestion 4: Are buses also included in the ticket?Thank you very much for your support!!! I am looking forward to your answers.Many greetingsHella 

HeyI bought a 4 days Greek Island pass. I just booked my 2nd ferry (we take this on the 5th of september) & 3th ferry (we take this on the 7th of september) at the site of Blue Star Ferries. I still hesitate about the hours for my first ferry (we take this on the 3th of september), but I'm planning to book this within a few days. Now I read at the site that you have to book the ferry's in the order you take them. Is what I do wrong? What can I do to fix this? 

Hi guys,Please help!I’m a German living in Australia for four years now. My husband (Aussie) and I will be visiting Germany (we fly out tomorrow actually!!) and we have booked Eurail tickets. Country of residence - Australia Country of passport - GermanI do not have an Australian Passport yet and I am unsure whether or not I should use my Australian Driver Licence or Australian Photo Card or Australian visa OR my European passport to activate my pass?I was hoping I could use my Aus Driver Licence - being German (and knowing German bureaucracy) I can see myself getting into trouble if I use my German Passport for Eurail in Germany (Address also hasn’t been updated yet on my passport yet, whops) or if I print out my Aus Visa as a “legal ID doc”, I am concerned that this will be strange for the ticket inspector as well (it is in English also and may cause confusion)Can I use my Driver Licence and produce Aus Visa etc when asked for as proof of residence?Any advice please highly appreciate

I've been trying to book reservations for weeks.. I've checked with Renfe and the train is running but it does not appear on the eurail timetable. Travelling san sebastian-Vitoria Gasteiz-vigo.. not travelling via Madrid...what's going on???I have an interail pass, planning on travelling to Portugal for a few weeks in September 

This is seemingly such a ridiculous question but for whatever reason, I can not get a call through to scnf to make a seat reservation. I have a SIM card and my calls in portugal have gone through no problem. Does anyone have any advice for me? Is this used error or is it impossible to reach them?

Hi, i want to travel to Italy and i am not sure if the global pass is valid for the starting country, in my case germany.can someone answer this question. Thanks in advance

Hello,Slightly confused about two things, if someone can help..First, I see posts from 9-10 months ago saying how you need to reserve a ferry ticket through email. Is this still true in 2022? There are online ferry websites of companies that cover the pass that offer tickets where you can enter a discount if you have Interrail pass, directly while buying the ferry ticket (like 20-30%). However, I didn’t see the option for the travel day pass discount.Also if someone can answer, this page here says that the 4-day travel pass only cover “Four FREE domestic trips” for Blue Star Ferries, not 4 days. I’m not sure which is true, or if I’m reading it wrong or if it’s a typo.
