Get ready to travel

Hello Rail Community I plan to take the 09:23 train from Stuttgart to Brussels Midi with  transfer at Frankfurt on 29 October.  I plan to skip anything Paris altogether…. I already booked the Eurostar from Brussels to London 15:51 to 17:00 Is the 6 minute transfer at Frankfurt very short?  Should I rather plan another route or different times? Thank you!

I have confirmed 1st Class seats on Eurostar London - Paris Nord scheduled to depart London St P on 23 September at 13:31 (Train No 9028).  However, my Global Interrail Pass shows this journey in “My Trip” scheduled as 12:56.  When this is opened for journey detail, the departure time is shown as 13:31.I guess the difference is ‘allowing extra time for boarding’ and that there is only one train involved here.  But I would like to be reassured that my journey will proceed as I planned.

I’m traveling to the UK in October. I have my Global pass, and I’m trying to reserve a seat on LNER for my ride from London to Edinburgh. It keeps telling me there are no routes. ?

Har købt interrail pass ved DSB.Kan jeg registrere det i app

I haven’t seen anything specifically saying that TTI trains are or aren’t covered, but in the absence of any apparent way to add information about a pass when booking I reckon they aren’t covered.Does anyone know for sure whether they are included in the pass or not?https://www.fstrenituristici.itThanks

I paid for a double cabin on a direct Nightjet 421 from Amsterdam to Munich and it was supposed to be direct. OBB contacted me and they cancelled this route but now I have to stop in Augsburg and change a train to IC 619 to complete my trip. I am leaving Amsterdam on 9/12/2025 at 19:00. OBB gave me a voucher for the seats on this second leg. While OBB shows this route as an option the Eurail app does not and only gives me the option to change trains in Nürnburg. How should I handle this with the Eurail app? Thanks 

So, I'm looking to travel to a specific spot in europe, I'm staying there for a week and then going back home. Do I need a 7 day or can I get a shorter one , since I'm only traveling by train 2 times that week ? 

Ich habe vor 4 Tagen einen Interrail-Pass gekauft, aber noch nicht aktiviert. Nun habe ich per Zufall gesehen, dass es eine Promo-Aktion mit 20% Preisnachlass gibt. Kann ich den Pass innerhaöb der 7-Tages-Frist zurückgeben und gegen einen verbilligten eintauschen? Spielt es dabei eine Rolle, dass ich bereits Reservierungen für die Reise erworben habe (über die Interrail-Website), d.h. bleiben diese weiterhin gültig? Kann ich als Grund für die Rückgabe die Promo-Aktion angeben?

Vlog !! (Here is the vlog I made for us to remember each moments of our trip !!) Je me rappelle Noël dernier, mon grand frère me parlait de ce projet d’interrail qu’il avait avec son meilleur ami. Il fallait que je m’incruste!! Et j’ai bien fait. Nous sommes partis de Paris pour deux semaines de voyage en juillet. Notre première destination était Amsterdam: Nous avons pu visiter la ville, les nombreux parcs et nous nous sommes balader dans chaque recoin de la capitale. Ils faisaient beau et très chaud, nous nous rafraîchissions au bord des canaux ou dans Albert Heijn à la climatisation !! Pour notre première soirée nous sommes allés à NDSM où nous avons passé un très bon moment qui allait être à l’imagine de notre fantastique voyage. Après une deuxième journée de l’autre côté d’Amsterdam nous sommes partis à Francfort où nous avons rejoins des amis qui venaient de Nuremberg. C’était une ville très paisible et je pense que le contraste entre les buildings de la ville moderne et les quar

Hi,I wanted to book a seat reservation from Milan to Zurich via Lugano and the OBB app says 0 euros and ticket valid for section of the journey only? If I take this route, I don’t need to pay any seat reservation unlike the 13 euros for a direct train to Zurich?And also, I was looking for a return journey from Zurich to Milan on 2nd November - OBB website shows ticket not available but SBB is giving me a different timetable, How can i reserve my seat?Thank you

Hey, my friend and I are currently in Sofia. In two days we want to take the train to Bucharest. In Bulgaria you cannot book any seat reservations online. We went to the central rail station to book the reservations in advance as we leave very early in the morning. There, most people at the ticket desks could not speak any english or were overwhelmed by our questions about seat reservations. The digital ticket machine was not working. Did anyone else have this problem already and can help us with ideas on how to book the reservations?Thank you :)

It was a four days trip to Rome with my brother and we really enjoyed it. It was really funny und great. Rome is a beautiful city with really good food.  

It would be great to connect with fellow adult Interrailers from across Europe! I’m 57 and starting my next journey from Kristiinankaupunki, a small coastal town in Finland. Back in 2019, I went on a six-week Interrail adventure. Last autumn, I shared a wonderful week-long trip with my daughter, exploring Rome, the Vatican, and the wine regions around Mainz. This coming spring, I’m planning to travel by Interrail again—this time for a work trip to southern France.

I have noticed that there aren't trains between Klatovy - Sušice  and noticed that with Sušice there aren't any connections i asume this is some info that is not added to the app? Because on the Czech site those stations do have a connection and Sušice has connections to other places too so I asume i just need to add them manuál? 

My wife and I have the 1st class Global-15-days-in-2-months pass on mobile app and are using a travel day to go from Vienna to Bozen, so its quite a long ride at 6.5hrs.  I got seat reservations thrrough Eurail, and OBB came back with separate seats!  This is quite annoying and not how we wanted to start out a 2 month trip, with riding separately through the alps!!!I checked the OBB site and for the exact trip we selected in the Eurail app there are other seats together in 1st class, I just grabbed them for €3/each from OBB.  Eurail doesn't seem to want to refund me.  Not only that, but getting the reservation through Eurail costs over 3x than getting them directly from OBB, and that 3x premium means we cannot be guaranteed to ride together?Anyhow, am I going to have to fight this for all 15 of my travel days in this 2 month pass???  How about on the Freccerossia?  Or is it just possible to tell Eurail to create a travel day and give me a barcode I can give to the train inspectors, and

Hello travellers ;)I currently have a general season ticket for my country (Switzerland) (AG/GA) which I renew every month. I have just signed up for a 10-day/2-month Global Travel Pass.So, I have more or less complete coverage of the train networks in my country and neighbouring countries. I have read some unclear and frankly laborious explanations here regarding this kind of ‘problem’, which sometimes advise buying a ticket for the journey between two ‘border’ stations. Huh?But if, for example, with the ‘EC 97’ train from Zurich to Munich,the two border stations are:ST. MARGRETHEN SG (Swiss station)Bregenz Bahnhof (Austrian station)So...I tried buying a ticket between these two stations with OBB, indicating that I am- retired (well, yes, everyone gets older ;) )- I have a General Abonnement (Swiss AG/GA) (1st class)- I have an Interrail Global Pass (1st class) Well, guess what... their system tells me that there are no tickets available because... I already have season tickets coveri

I am planning to visit Austria, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Hungary in September with a 7-day Eurail Pass. I'm planning to take a train from Budapest-Kelenfold to Wien Hbf with a Eurail Pass.On the Eurail website, it says that a seat reservation is required, but when I checked on the EuroCity website, it shows that reservations are not necessary and I wasn't able to book a seat there. On the Eurail site, I can still make a reservation. Should I book a seat in advance, or is it fine to travel withoutone？ 

I am planning to visit Austria, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Hungary in September with a 7-day Eurail Pass. When I tried to book a seat reservation for the train from Prague to Budapest, the website displayed the message:"Not available from Interrail.eu. This seat reservation can't be booked on our website.Check 'More information' for other ways to book."Could you please advise me on how I can make this seat reservation?

Hello,I was checking for seat reservations from Innsbruck to Bolzano on the OBB website. Do I need to check the box I only want seat reservation? If I check the Box, it shows 3 euros and if not the ticket shows 13 euros. Thanks

I am indian citizen, currrently living in netherlands for 6months (Onsite visit)& i have netherlands resident permit card for validity till December 2025.Am i eligible for Interrail youth travel pass?, as i wish to travel across europe over weekends.

I’m a Canadian, taking a long train ride through Europe to Greece. I’m going there on the eastern route through the Balkans, and back through Italy. I reserved a sleeper on the Dacia Express from Vienna to Bucharest on Oct 18. It gets me to Bucharest on Oct 19 afternoon,  I hotel overnight, and the next day Oct 20 I travel to Sofia. Again I overnight in a hotel. The next day Oct 21I would normally take a 5 hour bus to Thessaloniki. But Oct 21-23 there is no 5hr bus, only a 13 hour milk run to Thessaloniki. My question is, is it possible to change the reservation to one day earlier. It’s a paper reservation, mailed to me in Canada, which I haven’t even received yet.It being off season, would they perhaps let me go a day earlier if I arrived a day earlier?

Hi everyone, I want to travel from Paris to Mannheim with my Interrail Pass, and they say on my trip that it is needed to book a seat (started from 21 euros). The only thing i see is on the deutsche bahn website, where i can book a seat for only 5,5 euros. Is it the one i should book or should i see on another website?  Thank you

I travel by train with my bicycle. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to get a place for a bicycle on a long-distance train at short notice. However, if I only take regional trains to get home (I am coming from France and need to get to Berlin), it could take me several days.Is this possible with an Interrail ticket? How do I show this?
