Get ready to travel

Bonjour Nous devions prendre le dernier de nos 7 jours de voyage ce soir mais après changement nous aimerions décaler plus tard.La journée étant entamée, il me semble pas possible d'annuler complètement cette journée pour en reprofiter plus tard? Je me trompe?J 'aurai dû annuler avant minuit?Merci d'avance 

Hi, I have a 10 day in 2 months flexipass 29th May to 28th July 2024. I have used 5 days and have returned home intending to use the other 5 travel days before 28th July. I note that when showing ticket on the App it says “This ticket is expired”. How can this be? My partner’s ticket has the same thing. We have both been online on our phones regularly so that shouldn’t be the problem. We need to know whether this will right itself when we intend using our remaining 5 days. Can you help?

Hi! So my girlfriend and I are this summer traveling to the north of Europe. Therefore we have to get on the trains from Oslo to Göteborg (with train from vy) and Göteborg to Kopenhagen (with train from öresundstrag). Now my question is, if anybody has experience with a seat reservation for those trains and generally up there? I have already tried to book seats on every homepage, also on Entur.com but it is not possible. I also called them, but they said that is should be possible. Is there any solution for this problem? Our fear is, that the trains are full and that we do not get the next trains then. Are the trains in summer full up there or can we be relaxed because we will get seats anyways? Thank you very much in advance for your answers and help! Yours, Samuel  

Hi I have been looking for the direct train from Spiez to Milan for late July date. Was looking at train availability for a few weeks and noticed direct trains (2h38min) are only available up to Jun 8 and it seems that no direct trains are added after that date despite daily checking. Any change such that there’s no more direct trains ? 

Hi everybody! I’m traveling with my girlfriend this August and we are planning to visit France, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland and Italy. We already have a detailed day schedule for each train we need to take (20 day trip) and our option is the global pass for 10 day flexible. Reading about the Interrail global pass, we understand that for train requering seat reservation we have to pay a fee and we are totally aware and clear, but we are a little confused about the trains that don’t require reservation. After we buy the global pass, is it possible to reserve or book seats for trains with “seat reservation not required” to ensure the travel for date and hour that we need? I have searched for details about this but it´s not clear; it says that with the global pass we can get in to the train, but what happen if the train is sold out or full? Our concern is that if we miss a train will affect the rest of our schedule for that day, so that´s why we would like to previous book our trains

Hi.On the 28th of August me and my girlfriend are travelling from Lyon to Bologna. We wanted to take the train to domodossala, we then wanted to take the replacement bus EC057 to Milan and then the train to Bologna. When I looked online only on trenitalia I could book a ticket for 13 euros, but I could not select the interrail pass. Should I just pay for the ticket or is there another way to get a reservation for the bus?Greetings,Per

Hi Eurail Angels: I’m doing research for future (no date set yet) travel on the Bernina Express. Travel direction not decided yet. I know it’s either Tirano to Chur or Chur to Tirano. Question 1: I read on Seat61 page that you can try to book cheaper, legitimate ticket on German Railways (Deutsche Bahn) site. I wanted to know if I buy such ticket, do I still need a seat reservatoin?I understand that if I want to sit in the seats in the Allegra unit (that’s hauling the Bernina Express) then I don’t need seat reservation. Question 2: If I want to purchase seats in the Allegra unit (as mentioned above), do I use https://www.sbb.ch/ to make the purchse? How can I tell it’s part of the Bernina Express? Do I just pay attention to PE950 or 952 (summer Tirano to Chur) & PE 951 or 955 (summer Chur to Tirano). And of course ignore the seat reservation part as I’ll be sitting in the first-come first serve Allegra part of the Bernina Express train.  Question 3: If I want to take regional train

Hi, I’m travelling St Pancras to Bruxelles Friday 23.6.24 at 7.04. How much time should I leave before arriving?  Does check in take a long time with the interrail pass? I have a standard premier 1st class ticket. Many thanks, Barbara

I’m travelling from London to Sweden, leaving at 6am, arriving Copenhagen just before midnight. I need to continue to Sweden, train leaves after midnight so I have bought a separate ticket for that but it just struck me that it’s less than 24 hours after the day started. But presumably that’s just tough luck when you travel east - whereas if you travel to England (for example) you get an extra hour, until midnight GMT?

Hi,there is no such thing as interrail global pass to travel on a german bus, i read something like that somewhere on the net but i'm not sure what kind of buses i can travel on in germany??becuse this has: Bus 21REX 1From:Kirche, Lindenberg i. Allgäu799mTo:Lindau-Insel →                                                          Determine price   → interrail/eurrail pass use this time with this bus  on deutschebahn app best regrads,Christine

Hi -I want to reserve seats on AVE 9730 from Narbonne to Barcelona on Feb 21 (dep 10:39). The Interail reservation service shows a price of €12 2nd class - but also says it can’t process that reservation. The only “other” option offered seems to be in person at a station in *Spain*! I will not be in Spain between now and then, so that won't work. In there any other way? Does the SNCF phone service allow booking interrail seat reservations for AVE services? (The journey does start in France...) Or might I be able to do it to at a station in France? My fallback option is to just book a full-price ticket, currently available via Renfe online - c. €40. I'm assuming it would be a bad idea to delay to try for interrail seat reservations at the ticket office in Narbonne on my day of travel?Thanks for any help!Barry

Had to come back early to UK so used up my outbound/inbound days. Still have 5 travel days remaining before end of July and wondered whether the UK/France border begins at London St Pancras International when you pass through French passport control there. If so, can you travel using a normal travel day even though technically you are still in the UK until the tunnel & not require an outbound day?

Hi All,Please help me, its very urgent.I am a citizen of India(Indian Passport) and currently working in Germany for a German Company.Yesterday I booked a Eurail Global Pass “10 days within 2 months”.Is Eurail Global Pass valid for me, can I travel with this pass?Or have I made a mistake, is the Interrail Global Pass valid for me?I am confused , please help me.If I have made a mistake then can Eurail Global Pass be converted to Interrail Global Pass?Please reply. 

Got charged €50 for a late activation when I had everything including reservation with me. I want to know if there is a policy like this. And if anyone could send the pdf that mentions so. Would be grateful! 

hi ,Can I travel on German buses with a global pass? I'm having a hard time getting an answer, I've read all sorts of things online and in groups. I need to go from Lindau to a small German town on bus 21 and if I get on it I can show the global pass ticket is it good? or if not can I buy a monthly bus pass which is good for all German buses ( long distance bus )best regrads,Christine🎱

Hello all ;)I imagine this is possible on German (DB) and Austrian (OBB) trains?Why do you ask?  I've noticed that on some lines the 1st class is often fully booked, whereas reservations in the 2nd class are "for sale".Or do people travelling in 1st book more often than those in 2nd?In a nutshell. Thanks for your insights J.-François ;)Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

I have a seat reservation for Zurich HB to Munich HBF on the 25th of June from 11:33 to 15:04. There’s been a change/cancellations of some segments due to the storm damages. Part of my train is still covered but it’s where I get up to the part they had to cancel that I have concerns/questions. Are seat reservations required once I’m in Germany? I’m trying to determine if I’m okay or if I need to cancel the reservation I have now and rebook it. The only problem is Eurail hasn’t updated their trains so I don’t know which ones will actually be covered under the pass. 

Hy everyone, i’m planning to travel from Padova to Bratislava on 2nd August. I’m going crazy trying to understand if the NJ235 from Padova to Wien is available, from different sites i sees different infromations:interrail.eu → from this site i have to change train in TARVISIO BOSCOVERDE, then it is direct to WIEN HBF shop.oebbtickets.at → i have to change train in Wr.Neustadt Hbf, but tickets are not available (WHY??) thetrainline.com → 3 different option, the last one is direct instead the other two have a change at Wiener Neustadt Hbf. On the right the translation is equal “timetable subject to change” the train is in less than 2 months, i don’t know how to dothank you very much

Two Seniors looking to book 7/30 passes, but will be travelling with our grand child on some days. According to website, child under 11 should be free, but can’t add to purchase. Can we get help figuring this out?

Hello, I am currently Interrailing and my 3 month global pass just disappeared from the app. When I try to add it again, I get an error message saying that the pass is already on my device. Maybe it is, but neither can I see my pass nor my trip.I have already submitted a zendesk support request this morning, but I got an automated email reply that the pass number in the support request was invalid. I then responded to this email with my correct pass number and since then I haven’t heard anything from the interrail support.Are there any other ways of getting support for this issue? I have not reinstalled the app yet as I don’t know if it is safe to do so while my pass is active. Regards, Marc

The likely itinerary will be:Day 1: Leave from London to Paris; Spend the day/night in ParisDay 2: Spend the day in Paris and in late night leave for InterlakenDay 3: Arrive in Lausanne or Interlaken;Day 3-5: Go around places like Lausanne, Interlaken, Montreux, Zweisimmen, JungfrauDay 6: Leave from Switzerland to London. Can you please help with figuring out whether it will be better (and cheaper) for us to hire a car or take trains?Which train was would be ideal for this journey (including Eurostar from london)? A 4 or 7 day Eurail or a combination of 4 days Eurail Global pass and a swiss travel pass? And what should be the ideal combination?

Hi !We are a group och 6 persons with valid 4days Greek Island Pass and we have online booked a Blue Star ferry this saturday 15 june from Pireus to Santorin. When i booked online i made a misstake and choose 6-day pass for one of us in the group, tried to call Blue Star service but they said they cant help us on the phone with this we have to email helpdesk@attica-group.com but they only answer that they dont understand the problem. As a result we cant plan the next leg in a journey as ther booking system says it a wrong number of days for one of the island pass, we trying with 4day pass for all in the group on the next ferry.  Do you have any suggestions how we can get the booking at Blue Star to help us change the fault i made?  Best regards from Sweden, Tobias
