Get ready to travel

Hi,I wanted to book ticket online from Barcelona to geneva(Swiss) which would be via france but I dont see any direct carrier website which takes interrail pass as option. Can someone suggest how can I book this online. On Interrail website it says Price unavailable.Also Do will we able to get any seat on no reservation regional trains of Spain. I am wondering if they are too overcrowded? Also how would we be able to board those as I heard we need to scan barcode for boarding gates to open and for regional trains we cant add them to cart or journey on Interrail pass. Please help. ThanksPriyanka 

Hello guys,I was wondering if it was safe to get on a train from Munich to Vienna without having a seat reservation, as it is said on the Interrail website that no seat reservation was required for this route.Does someone know if the trains from Munich to Vienna are usually full/very crowded ? Thank you in advance for your help !

Hi! I am travveling with the nightjet from Utrecht te Basel and in Basel change to the train to Milan.We only have a 8 minute tranfser time to get our direct train. A later train will take 2 or 3 changes.. is 8 minutes madness? Do nightjet trains normally arrive on time or with short delay? Tx!

tempo fa ho creato un biglietto Rimini-Lecce, la tratta Bari-Lecce non è nel biglietto perchè è un treno regionale. Per poter salire su questo treno basta il Qr code che ho creato dall’app?  

Hello, How can you see on the app on which platform your train leaves? I only see the time of departure. 

Hello fellow travelers, I have a one month Global Pass with 4 travel days. I'm currently in France and will go back from there to my home town of Vienna. The Global Pass was activated in Copenhagen because I bought it when I was there, don't know how much this circumstance plays any role though.My question regarding the outbound/inbound Journey: so far I have used two of my four travel days. For my departure back home I already have a reservation from Toulouse to Paris, from Paris to Strasbourg and from there to Vienna, all on the same day, Friday 29th of July.The night train from Strasbourg leaves before 12pm. If I use the rest of my two regular travel days now, can I use the inbound Journey day on the 29th? Since the trains are all on the same day and the night train leaves before 12pm I thought it should be fine but was hoping for the collective knowledge to be sure.Thank you very much. 

Hello, we are actually in a train from Frankfurt to Berlin, without reservation needed but the controller asked us a ticket with a QR code to scan it. But we thought that the QR code was only for train with reservation ! So we went on the rail planner but we didn’t find any QR code, and the controler start to ask us to pay 100€, until I checked a second time on the rail planner and we finally find the QR code who appeared few minutes after. It’s that a bug of interrail ? Or do we have to print all the tickets with the QR code even with trains without reservation ? 

Hello,I just bought reservations for a train going from Florence( Firenze SMN) going to Venezia Mestre, but found out I actually wanted the Venezia Santa Lucia station instead.  Is there a way of correcting this online ? Or at the station in Florence before we get on the train?

Hey everyone, I know there’s been a lot of discussion going on about the seat reservation between France and Spain but I still struggle to make my reservation. As I am currently in Germany and planning to travel to Lyon and one day later (2.12.) from Lyon to Valencia, I cannot book this trip as indicated at a local spanish station. I tried via app - says ticket would arrive too late and cannot be booked therefore, also tried to send it to my hostel in Lyon and it would still not work. Then I tried at a local european station counter - they say they cannot book it either. I tried to call SNFC but the call is not going through. Has anybody another idea?Did anyone ever let a spanish friend buy a reservation locally and thenreceived it by email?How good are the chances to book the ticket the moment I arrive in the evening of 1st of december for the next day?I really hope someone can help. Thanks!Mirjam

Hello, I am traveling in a few weeks and I have been looking at the trains for the route I am interested in. My question is this: for many trains the interail site says I am ready to board. Firstly, is it certain that when going there the train will not be fully reserved? How can I make sure that a seat will be available? Also, when ready to board the train, what do I need to show in order to board? Is the number of the pass enough or do I need to provide anything else? Any info will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hellothe app only gives you timetables but not seat availiabilities. Is there any way to check seat availiabilities before buying a Pass ?I wouldn’t like to be in the situation of purchasing a pass, and seeing after that, that the night trains I wanted to book are sold out ! If so I wouldn’t have any choice but to request a refund (including a 15% fee)thank you !

Hi,I am going inter-railing with my son this summer; my friend is also going inter-railing with her 2 children at the same time.  We have decided to do the “first leg” together.  I am trying to book Eurostar tickets, from London to Paris, for all 5 of us to ensure we have seats together.  However, I seem to need to add my friends pass number and her children’s pass numbers to my trip on my mobile app in order to book seats for them.  I’m aware that each pass is only allowed to be on one device, does anyone know if I add my friends pass number to ‘my trip' in order to reserve the seats does that then mean their passes are on my device?  We are not travelling beyond Paris together so I don’t want to end up with them not being able to travel without my phone!Thanks 

Hi there, I am trying to reserve a seat for the Eurostar between London St Pancras International and Brussels. No matter which date or service I select I am unable to do so, either on the Eurrail website and Eurostar. Can anybody help?  Thank you! 

I booked seat reservations on Eurail.com on my laptop and printed out the seat reservations.  I have also downloaded the Rail Planner to which I attached my Mobil Eurail Pass.  Do I have to attach the seat reservations to the app or can I just use my paper confirmation of seats?  Thank you.  P.S. I just realized that the start date states 24Aug, when I am actually traveling on 25Aug.  How do I change that?  Thanks again! 

Hello, I'm planning a trip to Italy with my friend for August. We bought our tickets on oebb website for most our trip in Italy, but when we tried to look for Firenze SMN to Pisa centrale it says "tickets not available" for all trains. Does it means all the train are full? Cause I have a hard time believing it… is there another website where we can book the train tickets for Italy?  

Hey, i booked a seat reservation for direct train from Lyon to Barcelona. My question is if it’s possible to get in a stop after Lyon or two? Or do I have to board that train when my trip starts at the reservation.  thanks best regards luis 

My friend and I want to take the ferry from Italy to Greece, which is free with out global pass. Something that we cannot find exactly is that the free ferry will cost a travel day. So our question is: do you have to use a travel day to take the ferry between Italy and Greece (the free ferry)? 

Hi everyone, I was trying to book seats for me and my friends for the Munich-Bologna route.  But when we try to select it to pay, it tells us that it is not available.  Anyone know why these problems arise?

Hi,we´re travelling tomorrow Lyon-Arles and I´d like to check if the Interrail pass is accepted again? I just found the tweet saying so but don´t know how official it is, i.e. if I can show this to the ticket inspector in case they say No, you need to get a ticket.

When you want to buy an interrail ticket you only get the gender options male and female. Is it not possible for nonbinary folks to travel by interrail?

im a little concerned if I buy the eurail ticket and there is no availability on the train. The system only tells me the price of the seat reservation. Does that mean there are seats?I looked from Brussels to London and it gave me a price for the seats on the 21st July. Does that mean there is availability? please if you can clarify because I don’t want to buy the eurail it and there are no seats on the trains 

I have the same issue as Pia with Step 3 of the Activation process! What was the solution for Pia?I note that my ID/ Passport details are not visible in my Order Overview, which is probably the reason why all my password attempts are being rejected when I try to enter my passport number.URGENT: I need a quick solution as I need to activate my Pass on 5 JulyRemarksI do not recall ever having created a password for using the app, only a password for My Interrail Account, so it seems strange to ask the user to enter a password that was never created! There does not seem to be a place in My Interrail Account to add/change a password, or what the current password is. This is not user-friendly.

Hi, I’ve bought a interrail pass to go on Vacation to Italy. My plan was to take a night train from Amsterdam to Zuerich and use the same connection to go back. The train is run by the Night Jet as well as by the DB as an IC connection. I wanted to book the seat reservation but for both trains, the option was not available anymore. However, when I tried to book on the Deutsche Bahn app, the trains were available without any seat reservation necessary. Is it necessary to even buy a seat reservation for these trains then, if they would also be considered IC connections that apparently do not require a seat reservation? I really wanna take the night train connections as those are the fastest and most convienent. Could I just board the train then without making a seat reservation? I hope someone can help! And thanks in advance!! :-) 

Hi there,  I was wondering if I can use public transportation on my travel day in London? If yes, how does that work? Do I need to add it to my trip? Thank you!
