Get ready to travel

we are a group of five 18 years old travellers and it is impossible to us to reserve a night train between budapest and ljubliana with a month in advanced. the problem is that reservation is requeried and when it comes to pay the eurail web don’t let us add it to chart

Hi! I am travelling from Switzerland to Italy at the end of June and am struggling to book the seat reservation for the journey from Domodossola to Milano Centrale because the journey is on rail replacement bus and not an actual train. I cannot book the seat reservation through the Eurail website, and have not been able to find other ways to book it either. I’m assuming I am qualified to take this journey as a pass holder, but I worry that without seat reservation, I won't be able to in the case that the bus is full. Does anyone know how or where I can reserve seats? Preferably online as well, but if not, in person will do as I will be in Switzerland for a few days before going to Italy. Thank you!!

Bonjour, Je fais un tour de la Norvège avec interail et je cherche à réserver un ferry pour aller de Stavanger à Bergen avec la compagnie Fjordline. J'essaye donc de rentrer le code de réduction qu'il y a sur le site Interrail mais, dès que je le rentre et que je le valide c'est écrit "ce code a déjà été utilisé ou n'est plus valide". Comment faire?Merci

Last year we used our Global first class Eurail pass to travel from Paris to Collioure - this year we wanted to do the same!!! travelling from Paris to Sete on the same train - the intercities de nuit 5741 but it now says that it’s not valid for our Global first class Eurarail pass!!! is this correct? has there been a change in the last 12 months?

Will the Italy train strike affect the nightjet from vienna to rome? Have ticket for Sunday evening June 15, arriving 10:05 am in Rome on June 16.

Dear community,I am about to book seats for my journey from Lille to Luxembourg. From the RP app it shows seat reservations required for trains from Brussel Midi to Brussel Nord then from Nord to Luxembourg, meanwhile on the website it shows “You are ready to board” - I assume this means when you add it to your trip you can hop on that train without booking. I normally use website to make the seat reservation, and from the App it is redirected to the website as well. A bit confused about which instruction I am following please?T.I.Axo Rui 

Traveling June 20 from St. Lazare to Bayeux. From previous posts it appears Eurail passes don’t work on these regional trains? Also it appears we don’t need reservations on these trains? Just checking. Last post from from a while ago and wanted to see if anyone had updated info. Train sites a little confusing.

Hello there,Planning a summer holiday with my kids taking the train from Amsterdam to Basel/Zurich and then further into italy. Can somebody help me understand. If i take an interrail pass, how do i organize the reservation of a nightjet? Is that included, but how do i make sure my booking uses the interrail card? Even if i don’t want to sit there the whole night, but take the sleeping compartment? 

Hii have a booking for hotel in Amsterdam but I cannot find any available reservation from Paris to Amsterdam is it possible if I go to train station to travel without seat reservation Regards Rasool

I have bought an Interrail passholder fare for TGV9577 Paris Est - Karlsruhe. Due to a change in timetable I need to extend my journey to finish in Munich.Can I:Extend the passholder fare that I already have to cover the new destination? OR Buy a separate seat reservation for the Karlsruhe / Munich section? (Ideally booking the same seat so I don’t have to move...)A timetable search indicates that a seat reservation for this service from Karlsruhe to Munich is actually optional. Is that correct?(Further details in case they matter: travelling on a second glass global interrail pass. This is for a family of 5, so keeping the same seats would be *really* helpful!) Thanks!

Hi,we are in northern Spain right now and some trains are shown in the railplanner but in the office of Renfe they told us, we can not use them. This is very confusing because we relied on the app.Does anybody know why they show these trains?thank you in advance

Hi! Can I show my QR code at the train station even if the ticket is required? I am unsure how it works and it says that my e ticket isnt available for that type of train

I would like to go from Bochum to London on the first day of my passport. I have to change the train in Cologne. However, I would like to take a train earlier than the automatically indicated train from Bochum to Cologne. Can I enter two separate rides within Germany? Or does he just accept a total connection in your own country? Question is solved. Sorry.

HiI am trying to upload my reservations onto the various apps.  the SNCB one is not recognizing the DNR.  is this going to cause me problems?I have the paper copy of the ticket thanks  

I’m planning to travel to Sicily in june and want to take the night train back from Siracusa to Milan on june 24. However, when looking for availability on raileurope or italiarail, thay can't sell me a reservation for this train on that day. When going to the Trenitalia website, it shows that the train is running, bus not being bookable. Does anyone know why this might be the case? Engineering works? On the dates before and after june 24 the train is bookable, but only couchettes, sleepers are not available. This is the case for the whole of june and a large part of may. It seems that may 14 is the last day for which a sleeper compartment can be bought. Are these completely axed from the Milan - Sicily route during the summer?

Hello, i am new to European train travel but i have a trip to Italy booked in August. The first leg of my trip is taking me from Milan to Rome on 23rd August, but when i search for the journey the train i want (08:30 from Milan Centrale) is showing along with the seat reservation costs but when i click to book i get the below message:"No price results were found. Pass holder reservations may be sold out for this connection, but there are other ways to check for available seats—more info below our timetable."I find it hard to beleive that these seats have aold out, as they have only just become available, after months of checking. I am also positive that it is not something i am doing at my end as i have successfully managed to book other journeys from Rome to Naples and Naples to Florence.  Can anybody offer any assistance?  

I bought a interrail global pass and want to upgrade from 2nd class to 1 class, what should i do 

I am traveling Rome-NL today. From Milano to Lugano I take the 12.43 RE 25518. I didn't book seats because when I researched this trip no seat reservation was required. And now it shows up that I should book them. Tried ÖBB and Bahn.de but they will not let me book them...I have 20 mins of transfer time in Milano. When I cannot get on that train it will be a disaster for my trip. Help me out please...!! 

I am trying to get from Hamburg Hbf to Kopenhagen Hbf on Tuesday, 10th June night with a Global Eurail pass and would prefer to travel without having to make seat reservations.The Eurail app is showing direct travel on EC1194 with reservations required... but when I select the "No reservations" option, I am getting an option from Hamburg Hbf to Flensburg on the same train (EC1194) but then I have to make 2 changes as shown below: My question is... if seat reservation is required on a train, it would be required for all intermediate stations and not just for the terminating station, right? So what am I missing?Although the information is quite clear in the app but there have been instances where the app was lacking and hence the doubt. Can someone please clarify?Thanks in advance!  

I booked a train from Barcelona Sant at 8.25 am and I would like to change it to 13.25 to Madrid Can I change my reservation?  

Hi. I am visiting London at the end of June and was planning on doing a day trip to Paris. On the Eurorail app on my phone it shows me the train I would like to take from London to Paris on the day I would like to go and says that reservations are required and there are limited seats for pass holders. When I look on the app it tells me the price of the reservations and leads me to booking them but I cannot book them on my phone. Although, when I pull the same train up from the website on my computer it tells me that “No price results were found. Pass holder reservations may be sold out for this connection, but there are other ways to check for available seats—more info below our timetable.” When I look at other places to check availability I cannot find the train either. Does this mean simply mean I am out of luck and there is no way for me to make a reservation? The eurorail app on my phone which, I have been using to plan my travel, makes it seem like there are reservations available

Hi there, first timer. Iam trying to get from Paris to Brussels on Monday 7th July. Eurostar are sold out of reservations. I have looked on seat 61 and have seen that there are trains that do this jorney taking around 4.5 hours. What I am truly confused about is how I know which trains I can use with my pass. Ideally I would like to leave in the morning around 10am. Everytime I use the interrail website it only gives me eurostar times. I would like to use regional trains with no reservations if possible 

I have been planning my August interrailing trip (my first time) starting on the website (because of bigger screen) and then adding them all again on the app (it doesn’t seem to want to sync between the two).One journey I looked at on 9 Aug. leave Paris Est at 10.54 and get to Gengenbach at 13.48 shows on the website that I need a reservation from Paris to Strasbourg (no surprise there). On the web the next two stages of the journey, Strasbourg to Offenburg, Offenburg to Gengenbach show as ‘you are ready to board’. On the app however it says I need reservations for the next 2 stages as well.Which is the correct one and how do I know?There are several of these instances in my itinery but I thought one example was enough.Thanks!

Hello i have interrail Spain one country pass and i need to go tomorrow from Valencia to Alicante. Seat reservation is mandatory but I can’t do it because once i go to “book my seat” in the app it says 404 error page not found. How can i fix this please

Hi I’ve got rather confused as to how the planner app works. I created a fairly complex trip on my iPad and added it to my pass on my iPad. However I really need to have the trip on my phone, so i successfully added the pass to my phone. However though the pass is there, there isn’t any trip associated with it. Do I need to create it manually on my phone from scratch or is there an easier way? Thanks
