Get ready to travel

Hello everyone, I would really appreciate any insight or recommendation on what to do about this error. I’ve narrowed to when I try to reserve a seat for 1 of my family members, everyone else work perfectly, but every time I try to book for him, the error shows up. Thank you in advance!!  

Hi!Me and my girlfriend are planning to go on a trip with the Interrail global pass between July 4-10. We have looked up some routes, though on some days we have to change trains to reach our next destination. Our concern is that we may not we able to catch the next train if the first train arrives late due to the transfer time being 15 minutes. I have two questions about this:1:If we miss our transfer because the first train was late can we get a refound or some compensation on the seat-reservations?2: On the pictures below you can see the routes and the trains we would like to take. Do you think we can transfer from one train to another without any problems? Are delays greater than 10 minutes common on these lines?Thank you for your answers. 

I am travelling from Lecco to Ventimiglia in early September 2025.  The schedule in July has a direct train from Milan to Ventimiglia but the trains in September require changing 2-3 times.  Are the schedules that are there now what they will be for September or will they get updated again? Would prefer to have a direct train from Milan.

I purchased three Global passes and they are showing different information. Two of them are showing that we have now used 3/10 days and day 4 as “available”. The third one is showing 3/10 days used as well but shows “May 10” under day 4. Why isn’t it showing as available and will it cause any issue? Thank you 

   Hi all, I have been hearing mix things about what is covered and not in eurorail pass for the above two trips. Some of the routes in this area was recently added maybe. Can someone please confirm about the above two journeys if they are covered or not. Lauterbrunnen to Gruetschalp (Grütschalp) Lauterbrunnen to Wengen  

Hi, I’m trying to reserve a seat (have a global pass) from Milan to Nice on 21st August. I understand that reservations should be bookable now being less than 4 months away. The maninseat61 site says to go via Ventimiglia but no results come up. When I try to search for Milan>Ventimiglia in case the French trains aren’t reservable, it says I have to change to Torino but I thought it should be direct?Is there something else I need to try?

Hi everyone,I am planning for our first trip to Europe, and I have a few questions around seat reservations that I haven’t been able to find the answers for so far. I hope someone can assist me on this.1.    Apart from Eurostar, what other trains have limited seats available for pass holder? I will be travelling on the following trains:IC ICE EC RJX2.    When I book my seat reservations directly with the rail companies (e.g. OBB, DB, CD etc), do I have to explicitly specify that I will be using a Eurail pass? For DB and CD (Czech), I don’t see where I can select Eurail pass during the seat reservation process. As for OBB, I can only see I can add “Interrail/Eurail – Globalpass” as a “discount” during the process but I don’t know whether that is necessary/relevant. I am trying avoid surprises as much as possible, thanks for any assistance in advance. 😀ThanksJackson

For some reason, the website doesn’t let me delete a trip from my cart (a seat reservation I haven’t checked out). Because of that, it assumes I have used the two credits I have left, so I can’t book any other trips. 

Part of my route is interrupted and replaced by bus transport. Thus arrival time is delayed ; so the route does not work anymore.Is it allowed to use an alternative route which allows (however longer distance via Switzerland)  continuing the trip?

I am trying to book a seat on my first leg from Leeds to London Kings Cross which is an LNER train. The Interrail planner says“Not available from Interrail.euThis seat reservation can’t be booked on our website. Check 'More information' for other ways to book.”Firstly, does this mean that I can’t travel by this train at all?I tried to book a seat with LNER who is the carrier on this train. There doesn’t seem to be a way to book a seat without having a ticket.Can someone tell me how I book a seat in this case?

Hi ! I don't have a smartphone. I would like to buy a global pass before this weekend. Is it impossible just because I choose not to have a smartphone ? 

Hello fellow travellers,I have a one country pass for France and I want to go from Karlsruhe to Dijon this Friday 9th of May. Initially, my plan was to travel to Mulhouse via Freiburg and Müllheim on regional trains using my Deutschland-Ticket. I have (cancellable) reservations for the 17:46 TGV Mulhouse-Dijon. But because of the strike situation, I fear that the TER Müllheim-Mulhouse might get cancelled (it often does) and I am looking for alternatives.Is there a way to get on the TGV 15:12 Karlsruhe-Besançon (TGV) with my one country pass?If I am looking on this page https://www.bahn.de/buchung/start?KL=2&ET=PASSZUSCHLAG I get three offers: a) 15€ Passzuschlag one country (“valid for the German section for users of a one-country pass except German Pass”)b) 35€ Passzuschlag German Rail pass which clearly doesn’t applyc) 19€ Passzuschlag Global pass which clearly doesn’t applyIn my understanding option a) could apply to my situation. The person at the DB desk told me it doesn’t app

Je souhaite effectuer un trajet en train de nuit (22h44) le 18 octobre prochain (Euronight OBB) entre Cracovie et Münich.La réservation des couchettes est possible sur le site OBB mais impossible de trouver la liaison sur le site d’interrail et donc d’obtenir un billet.Que faire ?

Do I now have to enter each connection exactly with the pass or is it sufficient to enter the departure station and the destination station for the day?

I have loaded a trip and I believe I have inadvertently activated my pass, although I am not leaving for 2 weeks.  The trip is currently empty of journeys.I have imported the trip we have input into my partners phone. However this is now shown as a separate trip.How can I move my pass to the trip with all the individual journeys enteredOr how can I merge the two trips into oneOr how can I migrate the journeys from my partners trip into my activated trip, without having to re-input every journey. I find the app is not user friendly and is very limited in capability.  Any suggestions will be gratefully received.    

I have manage to make a reservation for this section of the Bernina express. But since you are not able to add this section to your planner using the app, how do I proofe to the busdriver that I do have a ticket?

Hi, I am planning my summer vacation, but unfortunately it is constantly showing me:“You must split your journey. No connection” and so on. I checked the Finisch railway homepage and there are several connections there. Why cannot I plan it with Interrail Ticket? I am considering now not booking Interrail, but buying separately tickets. What do I do wrong? Thanks a lot in advance for your attention and answers!

I will travel with a friend in Portugal in June and we want to book trains. We know that seats reservations must be reserved in Portugal but can we book just tickets for the train without seats before, in a french train station ?Thank you

No doubt this has been asked before, but we would like to purchase a five travel day global Eurail Pass for mid July 2025.  While our plans are pretty sure, if something were to change (health issues, etc) is it possible to cancel prior to the start of the trip?  If so, is it full refund?   Thank you. 

Myself and my friend booked a train reservation from split to slovenia andit had to be a paper reservation. The estimated delivery date is after we leave for our trip though. What can we do? Can we get a digital copy? We leave in 6 days so need to solve this soon. The reservation will arrive 2 days after we leave.

Hi all. My friend and I are traveling from Lisbon to Madrid on the 11th of July. I see there are no train times available yet (probably because it is far in advance) but can we expect there to be a train (+-9 hours) on that day? Or is it a more viable option to find alternative transport. 

I am trying to add Copenhagen-Gothenburg-Oslo to our Interrail trip on 18 June, but there seems to be a problem between Copenhagen and Gothenburg.  It seems to require taking a bus from Falkenberg to Gothenburg, which adds a long time to the journey time.  Is there an interruption to the service (ie bus replacement during track works?) or is there an issue with Interrail passes there?

Hello I have read that Lauterbrunnen to Wengen is included in the eurail global pass, but when I look on the rail planner app every option is listed as not in network.I read some questions asked earlier where it’s mentioned it’s a bug on the eurail app. I want to know what should we do in this case. I think we have to add a trip to our journey and then create a ticket for that. I want to know how can i do this for Lauterbrunnen to Wengen route.

Hey! I put me and my moms (who’s pass I put in this request) passes in the Mobile app, and i put them about two weeks ago. The problem is, i put same days, mut the app put my moms start date at 25. April when it was supposed to start at 25 June. I noticed it just now and Its too Late to change it. I was sure i put our dates at the same time and the validity has started but we have Planned the trip in july and not now. My own pass is at the right time but hers isn’t. I am underage and I don’t want to ruin this trip because of the apps mistake on my Phone. Can someone change my moms date to 25. June, we have not used Any on the days or bought Any train tickets yet. It was a mistake from the app and I would like to change the date.
