This will be my fourth time using a global interrail pass and thought I’d learnt all the lessons but I’m stressing out about an upcoming trip to Switzerland and hoping someone can help me out.I used the b-Europe website to reserve seats on the Eurostar from London to Paris return. The trip is at the end of May so sorting the Eurostar seats was the priority. We need to be in Paris for lunchtime on Sat 31 May to catch our Eurostar. But now I’m struggling to book the 09:34 TGV service from Basel to Paris on 31 May. There doesn’t seem to be any option for Interrail pass holders to reserve seats and I don’t know whether it’s because they’ve sold out or have just not been released. I’ve looked on various sites, including the TGV Lyria website - I couldn’t find anything conclusive as to when the tickets will be released. I’m looking at alternative routes, but also struggling to find anything for Sat 31 May to get us back to Paris from Switzerland.Appreciate any advice, or info on whether the

How fast do they send out a paper ticket?  Would be for Vienna-Prague, and we live in US.  Thanks

i’d booked the class 1 seat before the trip on the schedule to take the euro star train from rotterdam to brussels, unluckily the train was cancelled! how can i continue my trip through the train cancelled issue?

I’m just checking I understand this right before I book, buts basically with a global pass you can use the Eurostar, but pay a fixed price do the seat reservation depending on your destination. Only checking as this sounds ridiculously cheap compared to how much the Eurostar costs usually ??but if that is the case then that’s amazing 

Hello! I am trying to book a journey from belfastgrand central to Dublin Connolly.The Eurail app says that this journey is “unavailable for second class pass”, However when I check the Translink (Northern Ireland. transport) Website there seems to be plenty of second class seats available… So I can't understand why I can't add this journey? The trip I need to book is on 3/12/24 departing Belfast grand central at 2pm  Any help would be appreciated!!! I don't want to have to wait for the train that leaves at 6pm… which seems to be the only one available with a second class pass. Help!!! 

Hello Everyone, I’ll be travelling to Europe during April this year and was thinking to buy the Eurail Pass for my travel from one city to another. My passport is having just the Given Name(First Name) as two words “ABC XYZ” while my Surname(Last Name) is Empty so how should I be entering my name while buying the pass so I do not face any issues during my travel. Let me know if someone have had the same issue and how you addressed it. Thank You in Advance :)

Where do I enter my Global Pass number when booking the Prestige Goldenpass Express so I am only charged for the seat and not the actual travel? I can not find the correct place for the life of me. Please assist. Thanks SO much!!!

Hi, im trying to book seat reservations to travel from Narvik to Stockholm in March but when i enter my Pass Cover Number it tells me this:The card number isn't valid for booking journeys in SJ's digital sales channels. Please contact the retailer you purchased the card from to book a journey.I’m not sure what do now and the tickets are quite expensive and i would need the discount from my interrail pass. Would be very glad for any help, thank you :)

I am travelling in mid May.  As it in January , some of the reservations in Europe aren't yet available - In order to get a Eurostar reservation, is it better to book now as everything I have read say they sell fast?- If my plans change, how easy/costly is it yo change the reservation? About reservations in France and Italy - how soon are they generally possible to book?- if i miss a connection due to delay of a previous train, do I contact interrail or someone else?- if it is a train with no reservations, i assume I just turn up and get on?- are the times on the rail europe website accurate, or is it necessary to double check the train operator website?If i book with Rail Europe for the , eg, 1000 train, but the train operator timetable states it is actually 1115, which train have i actually reserved, and is it a problem?Thank you for your patience  

Hey ! Good morning to you all, new to this interail adventure. There's one thing I don't understand. I would like to book a sleeper train between hamburg and stockholm, but when I go to the booking page I am only offered a seat and no sleeper. I looked carefully on the company's website and they say that sleepers are available...can you help me? 

I am looking for trains from Rome to Frankfurt with minimal transfers on June 20, 2025 without many transfers. I think I would need a seat reservation because the train starts in Italy, and if so where do I do this, and how would I ensure I get a reservation so I could sit near a friend as well? We both have global Eurail/Interrail passes. Any recommendations for specific trains/routes/times? 1 day travel would be amazing, but I am also open to staying overnight along the way and continuing the next day for a more relaxing journey. Any suggestions for a 1 day route and/or 2 day route for this journey? Thanks for any help and ideas!

I am planning a Europe trip to breeze through 3 cities Paris, London, and Asterdam within 4 days in February 2025. My search made me believe the cheapest option is to use high speed train using Global Flex Pass. I got passes for 4 of us and now am trying to reserve /book seats for this trip via Eural app and website. None is straight forward or available for me and my family to book. I am frustrated because my trip is for the duration Feb 14th to Feb 17th. Please help me figure this out because this is my first time trying to use Eurail and high speed train

Hey all, I’m planning to depart from Edinburgh towards Amsterdam (plus additional destinations after).I thought it would be great to take the ferry from Harwich to Hoek van Holland, but the travel planner is not showing me the ferry, even when I specifically make a stop at Harwich.Do you know if the ferry is covered? 

I am a single male traveller trying to book an overnight sleeper from Hamburg to Stockholm on 2nd February on SJ Trains, it will only offer me ‘women only’ sleeping compartments, does that mean the rest are sold out also do I pay a discounted price with my Interrail pass

I am flying into Rome. I want to take a train from Rome to Paris and then Geneva. Fly into Rome and fly out from Geneva. What are my options. I have a function in Geneva so it has to be my last stop. Travel days are 4/12 to 4/20. Thank you. It looks like a global pass will be a good option.

Hola a todos! Voy a hacer el recorrido en tren de Paris a Luxenburgo, Varsovia, Cracovia, Bratislava, Savreg y Liubliana. Alguna recomendación? Será nuestra primera experiencia, alguna indicación que pudiera ser de ayuda antes de comprar los tickets? Somos 2 parejas mayores de 70 años. Muchas gracias!

Hi, I’m going to Europe for the first time, and bought a 2nd class Eurail global pass for 22 days. However, for any specific journey, for example the Bernina express from Tirano to Chur, can I book a 1st class seat? I don’t need 1st class for the whole time, so I’m not thinking of a pass upgrade, just looking for options to upgrade or exchange to 1st class for only specific routes. I know in swiss pass, it is possible to do that in sbb website, but couldn’t find anything similar in eurail. Also, in berina website, while booking seat reservation, I found that I can actually choose 1st class seat, and when selecting Eurail pass for discounted fare, it does discount the fare an only charge for seat reservation, but doesn’t ask if I have 1st class or 2nd class ticket. So, can I actually reserve 1st class seat with my 2nd class pass?  Thank you so much.  

I don't know how to reserve seats for the panoramic trains.

If I am taking the night train / nightjet from Vienna to Rome, it shows the train leaves Vienna around 1918 in the evening and arrives in Rome around 1100 the next day. Will I only need to use 1 day of my Eurail pass for that travel, even though I am arriving after 11 am in Rome the next day? And then when actually traveling, I will need to show my ticket from booking the nightjet seat reservation (sleeper car reservation), plus the Eurail pass on my phone? Thanks!

Hello Everyone,I’m wanting to make my seat reservations with OBB for tickets from Rome to Venice, Venice to Milian, Zurich to Paris, when I put this in and select 2nd class it does not show any seat options. So, when will it show me my seat options, and will it come to a point to where I can change them if my husband and I are not seated together?Thanks in advance for anyone’s help

I shall be travelling from London to Paris on 14 MayMy previous train should arrive at Kings Cross at 940- Would it be feasible to get the 10:24 Eurostar, or would it be wiser to allow the full recommended 90 minutes?- if I book the 11:31 Eurostar, but got to St Pancras in time for the 10:24, how likely are they to allow me on the earlier train?- if i reserved seats on onward trains through France based on the later Eurostar, would it be possible to rebook on an earlier train?  If it were, how could this be done, and what sort of cost would be involved?I apologise if these questions seem basic, but Ive never interrailed before, and would hate to make a mess of it

Please could someone advise the cheapest route (ie lowest reservations) travelling from Naples to Paris in a single day, likely to be 20 May, or thereabouts.I can leave Naples very early Thanks
