Get ready to travel

Hi,i have booked a trip from Copenhagen to Hamburg 2 months back itself. At that time, for that train no reservations were needed. still now just that journey exists in my trip without any highlights ( like ‘seat reservations needed’ highlight notification which I got for some other trips )now I thought to change time of my journey and now it says seat reservation needed. So, I did not do any change.  my question is if I continue with my original journey booked 2 months back, for which I have ticket (QR code), will it be sufficient or do I need to reserve seats there also? I am confused because QR CODE DOES NOT HAVE ANY SEAT NUMBER ,it just says second class. Kindly help me.Note; I have monthly EU global interrail pass

I am now on a frecciarossa, in business class.'fast wifi'... my phone finds a network which disconnects every 6 seconds, my tablet doesn't even find it… Anyone any idea, is frecciarossa networks just bad quality? Or not lucky on this particular train. Quite disappointing when one wants to get some work done    

Hello,unfortunately we have a problem with our mobile pass.We chose the 23rd as our starting date but actually wanted to start tomorrow the 24th. now, when we enter our trip on the 24th, already 2 travel days are gone. Why is that? Can somebody explain? Or is it still possible to change that? Thanks in advance for the help and best regards.  

Hello, I am planning to travel from Sofia to Istanbul on the 23rd of July but I can’t manage to do a book reservation cause I am supposed to be at the local station to do it and I am currently in France.  Could you please help me? Thank you in advance!

Before, when with PAPER card, for overnight train that depart after 19.01 (or 20.01?) you can select OR day of departure, OR day of arrival. i.e. if I leave evening, AFTER  19.01 at 15 July and arrive on 16 july 6.15 morning I have the right to select any 15 OR 16 as a travel date.  What’s happened with this rules now?  IS it exist FOR PAPER card or was canceled? I prefer somebody from interrail to answer me EXACTLY and not a traveler.

I added a travel day in error for today 20 Jul, but my trip is not until Tuesday 26 Jul. Please help! This is my second last travel day 😢 and I really really need it! 

I am not sure if my recent experiences trying to book a couple of reservations, well in advance, across Italy are repeated elsewhere but here is my experience.We need to get from Monaco to Venice in September. Trenitalia shows a journey at 0901 with changes at Ventimiglia and Milan, but there seems to no way to book reservations only on their site. Neither OBB or Interrail planner showed this option until today, when the Interrail planner/reservation tool now showed the combination we  wanted. Reservations from VM to Milan and Milan to Venice would be needed. OK so far - moved to reservation tool and proceeded to make both reservations. Went to check the cart, entered passenger details and it said one of the legs wasn’t available (The 3 euro intercity from VM). Really???? A basic Intercity 2 months in advance.Back to the planning phase.Now, with Monaco to Venice as search,  it seemed that the VM to Milan had disappeared and the suggested option included 3 changes to Milan.Then tried si

Hi, is it required to be online to be able to show the Global Pass in the App to the conductor? Is there WiFi in trains in Germany, Switzerland and Italy? And can we charge our phones in these trains?

El último día, para volver a Madrid tengo que tomar varios trenes en Francia que me llevan a Girona y de ahí a Madrid. El problema es que según he leído, no se puede tomar más que un tren a/en tu país y no sé si puedo hacer esa ruta, ya que no hay ningún tren directo Paris- Madrid.Se podría hacer? O hay alguna alternativa?

Hello, is there a bucharest-halkali train? How much is the reservation fee?

Hi,I’m using a global pass (mobile).Previously, I’ve booked seat reservations with Eurail but this time did it directly from www.bahn.de.I received a copy of the seat reservations in my email and downloaded the DB app and the seat reservations are there but there is no QR code.I was just wondering whether I need a QR code and if I have done something wrong.Thanks

Buenas noches. El día 21 de Agosto queremos coger el tren nocturno Budapest Split. Venta a las 19.01. Hemos intentado reservar desde la app eurorail y no podemos, también desde OBB y pone tickets no disponibles ¿Está lleno ya? ¿O quiere decir que solo se puede hacer en taquilla?Os dejo el enlace: https://shop.oebbtickets.at/en/ticket/timetableEl resto de viajes los haremos sin reserva, aunque sea más tiempo... Nuestro itinerario es Barcelona-Praga-Viena-Bratislava-Budapest-Split- Ljubljana. ¿¿Lo veis arriesgado??¿la mejor alternativa para mirar horarios es la página OBB según mi itinerario? muchas gracias

I need to catch the INT 480 train from Rijeka to Budapest tomorrow, the intarrail application says the seat reservation is mandatory, the interrail website won’t let me get a seat reservation, I contacted customer support and they redirected me to the Hungarian railway website, but I could not book a seat reservation alone, it only let me buy ticket+Seat reservation (even if I checked the box that said I already have a ticket/pass). From the Hungarian website it seems a though a reservation is not mandatory, as when you buy a ticket it asks weather or not you want to reserve a seat, but the interrail application says it is. So which is it ? How can I get a seat reservation ?PS: I know this is last minute, I’ve been trying to solve this issue for a while but customer service is slow and the websites unclear.

Hi - this may be a stupid question but I need all the help I can get with booking night trains for italy.I have found the trains I want on both italiarail and trentitalia websites but neither of these sites have an obvious option for applying the interrail pass to the booking. But when I try the interrail/eurrail reservation system it does not find any of the trains even though both other sites clearly have booking available.This is specifically for booking a night train/sleeper cabin.

Hi Everyone, I just booked a reservation from Zurich to Berlin for 14/8. The money has come out and the screen seemed to just blink off before I could take note of anything. Meanwhile I haven't received a confirmation email with the details. So, I decided to create an account and make an enquiry. I've had 2 other emails about the account and the enquiry but not the reservations. Is this unusual? Will they send it closer to the time? All other reservations seemed to be pretty automatic (French and English). Not sure if I should just buy another reservation.  ThanksTam

Hello, we booked multiple tickets for our group, and want to cancel 1 person's tickets. They have all been booked through the interrail website and cost 10 or 13 Euro's each. Is this possible? I tried on the Italian Railway website, but it doesn't allow to select any of the tickets. 

If yes, which ones?

I’m trying to reserve the train that departs 1 week from now online. It says the reservation is available but when I put in my French hostel address it says:“Your order contains one or more paper tickets, based on our calculations your order will not arrive on time. Please send your reservations to another address, such as your hostel in Europe or try booking at a European train station.”How can this be? Is there no way around this? I tried calling SNCF last night and they said that there isn’t spots available but the Eurrail website says there are. I won’t be in Paris until the 26th and I fear the tickets might be sold out if I go to a station to book it then…Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you ❤️

Hey! So, unfortunately, 24th July is our last day and last travel day of our Interrail trip, our Passes are valid till this date. We’ve just recognised that we’ve bought earlier (like a month ago) our seat reservations on our very last train the Zürich - Budapest night train (14 € / person). This train departs on the 24th, but arrives next day, on 25th, consequently this, arrival date is not in the Pass validity. Yeah, we know, we should have thought about this way more before… But now the full fare tickets for this route are very, very expensive (100 € / person), which we frankly cannot afford. What should we do?? Are we in a trouble?? Such a bad situation…..

My phone re-set mid journey, now I can't add my pass again to the same mobile. It says already added to a device. I am in the middle of the journey right now. I need urgently help. Order Number EU30787033Pass number VWTVF7

Hi Everyone, I am thinking of using Interrail with my child to travel from the UK to Spain.From what I understand, we cannot use Interrail within the UK, except on the Eurostar to get out of the country and back in. So we will be getting a family Railcard anyway to ease the cost of getting to London and I am wondering whether the Railcard can be used in conjunction with Interrail (eg for the Eurostar seat reservation or for the Interrail ticket….?) 

Hi! I am on my way home and by mistake used my outbound flicker on the app. My train leaves tommorw and I have to stay in Gothenburg for 1 day. How can I redo the mistake  

I’ve had a melt down of my emails; doesn’t look like I forwarded this one to my husband… and can’t find it anywhere on the site!  I do have the reference number, but not any details of carriage, seats and etc., for tomorrow… and with travelling, I have to rely on all of the above… not printouts! 

Dear fellow members,Due to a series of serious illnesses in our family we (3 adults: man, wife, son) are only now able to book our train journeys in Sweden, Norway and Denmark starting the 3rd week of August.Would it still be feasible to make reservations for a number of trips (Stockholm - Oslo, Oslo - Bergen, Bergen - Oslo, Oslo - Stockholm, Stockholm - Kopenhagen)  at such short notice? The purchase of our Interrail chard depends on the availability of these reservations and I don’t want to risk getting stranded with my Interrail Card. Where can one check whether reservations are still possible without already owning an Interrail Card? Who can give us an expert opinion on this matter?Thanks

My Ámsterdam London train just got cancelled. So I have several problems. For example, Eurail takes this first day trip as used. But that is another question I will try to solve later.  Now I booked a ticket for brussels a 6.28am without reservation required. Should I arrive at the station way earlier as to make sure I get in? Or just having the ticket in my app should be enough? Thanks for your help!!!
