Get ready to travel

I have Eurail Global Pass and have booked reservations for Paris CDG to Amsterdam direct on Eurostar.  Where do we get on the train at Paris CDG ?  Can anyone help that has made this trip ?

We plan to travel from Salzburg to Bologna on a Railjet with transfer in Innsbruck using a first class eurail pass.  The seat reservation fee on the obb website is 3 euro.  But when I put the seat reservation into my shopping basket the 15 euro supplement that is supposed to be paid is not added to the seat reservation fee.  I have selected the eurail pass discount for my obb profile.  The eurailpass website says that seat reservations made on obb site will automatically include the supplement.  So I am puzzled as to what we should do.Thank you!

(I have the Eurail Global Pass) I’m trying to book the PE 2937 LUZERN-INTERLAKEN EXPRESS at 06:06 on December 22, but the seat reservations details are unavailable. If I add this to my trips without booking seat reservations, will I still be able to board the train. Or do I need to book the seat reservations on the Luzern website, or buy the whole ticket?

April/May we will travel through Europe. One of the routes we are planning to do is Vilnius to Krakow. I’m figuring out how to book a seat reservation for this train. (for April 25 – connection: Depart 12.10 Vilnius (IC 143), 1 transfer in Mockova Arrival 23.39 in Krakow) We do have a 2 month pass so remarks about taking a bus instead are not very relevant.(although for Talinn-Riga and Riga-Vilnius we will take the bus) There is a daily connection leaving 12.10 and arriving 23.37 with 1 change in Mockava (LT). See seat61 whichs is trusthworthy and valuable info. https://www.seat61.com/trains-and-routes/warsaw-to-vilnius-by-train.htm He also indicates tickets can be booked 30 days in advance. I checked the ltglink website and this is correct. (I found out when booking online a ticket for this train you cannot choose Interrail as a discount so I think a seat reservation through the Lithuanian website isn’t possible) To check how to book I used several dates in the oncoming 4 weeks so I k

Hi,I was hoping to take a direct train from utrecht centraal to koln hbf on Dec 7th (ICE255) and back on Dec 8th (ICE 152). As the seat reservation is optional for this route, I did not get the reservation in advance. But, now it says the train is fully booked.  Can I still travel on the same train with my Eurail pass (knowing that I might not get a seat to sit)? Or is it advisable to take a different connection? The train on 8th says only first class seats available. Does this mean I cannot use my Eurail pass (2nd class) for the journey?(Apologies if this has already been answered before but I couldn’t find an answer for my scenario yet.)Thanks in advance!

How much did you save up before going interrailing and how much did you end up spending?

Hi everyone! I’m planning to start interrailing in the second week of February, but I am a bit unsure about the global pass time frame of "7 days in a month."My question is whether that means 7 out of 30 days starting from the day of activation (i’m a bit unsure as Feb only has 28 days) I would really appreciate it if anyone could clarify the system for me!Thank you! :)))

Hi, I’m new to this site and I’m trying to plan an inter-rai trip from the UK to southern Portugal and return. I’ve started by looking at the section from Paris to Montpellier, but I’m having problems with the reservations. Several trains on this route show as “Pass not valid”, but the train I want to look at (14.42 from Paris Lyon) shows as “seat reservations required” which is good. However, no matter what date I look at, the site always shows as “Sold out”.It’s hard to plan this trip with numerous trains being non reservable, but it’s even harder when some of those that are reservable, are always shown as sold out. My question is, is it usual that most of the TGVs on the route from Paris to Montpellier are not available to Inter-rail passholders? Also, is this true of many other high speed train routes in France and Spain, or have I just been unlucky when starting to plan our trip?

I’m once again adventures enough to go on a Vienna - Nürnberg - Stuttgart - Paris trip and after causing quite some confusion last time around I would like to ask in advance:What exactly am I supposed to do if my train connection between Vienna to Stuttgart is getting delayed and I miss the TGV to Paris I have a reserved seat?The DB Servicecenter in Nürnberg bluntly refused to help me at all, while the DB Servicecenter in Stuttgart rebooked my TGV reservation to the next TGV to Paris without any issues at all. Which left me both happy and quite confused.  

Hello,I am traveling soon. I tried to add my Eurail Italy Pass on the app, then I found that my last name was misspelled from Jatu to Jutu . I have contacted customer service. But not sure would they adjust before I travel.How long would they reply?and is it ok if I active my pass with the incorrect spelling?  

Our family of 5 wished to travel from London, to Bruges, to Ghent, and back to London over a  three day time span. Is the Global Pass the best deal for us? Also, will this pass allow for travel between central London and Heathrow on local trains? Thank you! 

after buying 2nd class pass. Can I upgrade the 2nd class pass to 1st class.

I've booked Eurostar tickets from London to Cologne at the end of March. I now find there is an international dentists convention in Cologne when we arrive. It has been suggested that I switch to Düsseldorf, as accommodation is either very limited or astronomical in Cologne. I tried to change Eurostar tickets but they will not change destination. I can see that our train goes to Dusseldorf in any event. Should I just book tickets to Dusseldorf from Cologne on DB, and stay on the train? Any advice please? 

Hello everybody!Planning on travelling to Europe again during Summer '25... wondering if there have been any major changes to Eurail passes in the last 2 years since I travelled last?Do we still need to be present inside Spain to be able to book Renfe trains, or have they opened online bookings?Are 2 kids under 12 still free with 2 parents? Maybe someone can point me towards relevant articles I should be reading to get myself updated? Thanks in advance!Regards,Stargazer

Hi! I am planning my first trip via train in Europe. I would like to confirm few items, Here is our itinerary for full month of FebruaryDay 1 : Oslo - Bergen, extra 12nok for seat reservation Day 2: Paris-Geneva, this trip for my dates, which is 2 months from now, is showing 338 euros. If I have EUrail pass, do I just have to pay just 39 euros for a seat reservation? Is this 39 euros fixed, or it can increase when its closer to booking time? Just looking at the price of the ticket on the SNCF website, i.e., 338 euros, an EU rail pass makes so much sense if I have to pay just 39 euros. I hope I am not missing anything. Day 3: Geneva-Zurich, extra for seat reservation; I am not sure how much it was not clear on the eurail website. Day 4: Zurich - Chur - Tirano - Milan - Venice, for Bernina express do i have to book tickets from the actual website, i.e., 32chf? For a high-speed train in Italy, how much do I have to pay for seat reservations? Where do I find this information? Day 5: Venice

 I am able to see and book a train reservation on the night train from Split to Budapest (1205 ADRIA INTERCITY) on the MAV (Hungarian) website. It does not appear on the app though.  New Eurail pass user.  So confused!I have searched topics but can’t find the answer.

I travel with my wife and daughter from brussels 21 December to amsterdam. I have the "eurail pass" and I do not see any available time for that day on the eurostar, only on the train that takes more than 4 hours. Seeing through the omnio app many options appear that are still available. The truth of having the "eurail pass" was a terrible choice.

Hello, I read this topic https://community.eurail.com/train-connections-reservations-47/reservation-nighttrain-prague-zurich-not-possible-4978?tid=4978&fid=47Now i have the same problem. On the interrail website i cant make an reservation, OBB also not possible. When i go to the OBB website, and i check for an full ticket it is possible.

Hi, I am an international student (non-European passport) currently residing in Belgium. I have been living here for the past two years and hold a valid residence permit card from Belgium. I am planning to visit italy/swiss for 5 days.I am writing to seek clarification regarding my eligibility to purchase an Interrail Pass. As a non-European passport holder, I am uncertain whether I should opt for an Interrail Pass or a Eurail Pass for my upcoming travel plans. Any other practical advice would also be appreciated.
