I have activated my pass today for Sweden and I saw on the Ticket now „Not valid in Germany“ my last travel is from Kopenhagen to Stuttgart - is this pass then really not valid in Germany  

I am planning a full circular tour of Spain in September and am finding it very difficult to get any mention of local trains - i.e. those without the need for a reservation. Basically I am talking about travel between the main cities along the Mediterranean as a start.Some of these journeys require two or even sometimes three trains each with a reservation! Is there a way around this, or was I too optimistic (or naive 😯)?  Is the answer perhaps to travel between smaller towns?Edit: Perhaps I should ask how much reservations cost in Spain and how much in advance they need to be bought (from a station en route). 

Ik schaf binnenkort de beneluxpas aan, maar ik begrijp dat je met een Nederlands paspoort daarmee niet in Nederland mag reizen. Ik moet dan een kaartje kopen voor het Nederlandse deel tot (volgens mij) het eerste station in Belgie. Iemand daar ervaring mee? En waar koop je zo'n kaartje? I probeerde al een kaartje te kopen bij NS Internationaal vanaf een station in Nederland tot Essen (het eerste station in Belgie), maar dat lukt niet.

I'm trying to book Syracuse/ Bologna via Milan on 23rd October.  10.25 ICN. The screen offers the journey in segments, each requiring seat reservations.  I selected each in turn..selected Book...but it circled back to entry screen.  RailEurope shows (limited 1st class) availability which is why we wanted to book 

We have booked two ferries within Greek islands, we have global passes. On blue star ferries there was no problem booking, and our ferry tickets say ‘global pass discount’ on them. However, on the app I cannot add the journeys to my pass, because it says the routes are for Greek Island Pass holders only.  Will I be able to get on the ferry? Do they tend to check interrail passes when checking in? 

I seem to have created 2 trips. One I’ve added no journeys to but it has 2 blank used travel days. The other I’ve added all my journey plans to and it allows me to toggle between using a travel day and not on it but I think it’s not connected to my pass. I can’t see how to delete a trip created - app keeps offering the option of adding a journey to a new trip but I’m avoiding that particular trap now. Help?Thanks so much Nóirín

Trying to book Paris - Bern, I needed to book Paris-Gare de Lyon - Basel reservation. However, the eurail site didn’t worked at all according to error “being not able to press ‘continue to traveler details’ button”. i’ve tried to find alternative website from  to reserve Paris-Gare de Lyon - Basel, but there was no website that can reserve it.(Only domestic lines were able to book at “travel.b-europe website for national rides in France”) Is there any alternative website that can book international rail Paris to Basel?

Hi All,I am planning a circular route around central Europe staying around 2 days at 7 cities.Planned route is as follows:Prague (2 nights) -> Berlin (2 nights) -> Amsterdam (2 nights) -> Brussels (2 nights) ->Paris (2 nights) -> Zurich (2 nights) -> Munich (2 nights) -> Vienna (1 night) -> London (Home)There was a sale last week, so I bought 2 Eurostar tickets between Amsterdam -> Brussels -> Paris.For the remaining “5 travel days”, I am thinking of getting an Interrail “5 days within 1 month pass”.I’ve just checked a train ticket from Paris to Zurich (direct), on 14th August, second class departing from Gare De Lyon for 2 people, and the train fare is €262.Interrail “5 day pass” cost is around €100 per person for each travel day, so I should benefit from the Interrail pass when I travel from Paris to Zurich. Do you think it makes sense?If not, how would you plan the second part of the trip after Paris,  e.g. Paris (2 nights) -> Zurich (2 nights) ->

Hi I’m new to this interail pass thing,I have purchased a 4 day pass, travelling from Aberdeen to Alicante which uses 2 days of my pass, my question is can I use the remaining 2 days on my pass to return or do I lose them?TIA

I take it both my husband and I have to pay 125?If that is the case, I’ll look at another route with a hotel stop over

Hi everyone,I’m currently looking into the SJ night train from Stockholm to Narvik. The rail planner shows me to get a one country pass, but I will cross borders as the train travels from Sweden to Norway. Is this valid or should I look into getting two passes (1 Sweden, 1 Norway)?Thanks a lot!

We are active, in our 50s, and know this is a bit of a marathon but looking to see some of each country to then plan future trips back on ones we liked best or traveled through that piqued our interest.Does this route make most sense or what would be best to be switched and where would night trains make the most sense travel from Sept 10-Oct 3looking to go from-to the following cities in the current order London, Brussels, Amsterdam, Munich, Prague, Vienna, Venice Rome, Cinque Terre, Nice, Lucerne, Paris then back to London.  Brussels and Venice were just parital day stop overs.Hoping to use fast trains as much as possible was thinking we need the 22 days pass to make this make the most sense .  Also if going from London to Brussels Sept 12 how soon do we need to book the Eurostar reservation or does it change much if we go straight to Amsterdam?  Was planning to book hotel at next stop day in advance--not looking fancy-- just clean and budget friendly--hoping this is viable at most ne

I have booked paris to zurich via the eurail website ,  and i can see the details of the reservation in the eurail app as well. However email from eurail says the eticket needs to printed out and shown at the time of travel. Can't I use the QR code in the eticket on my phone ? Do I need to anything additional on the eurail app  like saving journey and adding ticket manually before boarding the train, checking as I can see comments like that in the forum however was not clear.Also the email said that we need to show the eurail pass to the conductor ,  what do they check the email/order details from eurail when the pass bought which got pass details ?any help this will be much appreciated.

I would like to take this trip next year.I am just starting to plan and would like to know if anyone has already taken this trip from Germany.- Which route did you take? Through Norway or Sweden? I read that Norway is more beautiful and less complicated, is that true?- How long does it last? I mean, which cities did you stop in for 1 or 2 days?- How long does the Pass last? I have free time and can travel for up to 2 months, but the number of stops is the main factor in deciding which pass to buy!!!! because on the way back I wanted to visit Lappland and Helsinki.!!!- I am thinking of going between April/May or May/June. Is it still too cold?Thanks in advance, I am open to any itinerary and tips.Roberto

I want to go to El Chorro during the first week of October. No timetable appears on the Interail planning app yet. I can see times on trainline and raileurope but I can't tell if any train will allow interrail passes. From Malaga the ticket only seems to be £3.93 so not worried about having to pay extra, although whether this includes a seat reservation, I don't know. (Seat reservations for every single train journey in Spain is really racking up the costs on top of the pass 😢).Can anyone help please? Not knowing is preventing me from planning ahead.Many thanks in anticipation. Jill

Hello,I'm about to go on my first trip to Europe with an interrail pass. Before I even set off, the first problem has already appeared.I booked a seat on the TGV from Munich to Paris for Wednesday the 21st. Booked on raileurope.com The train was supposed to leave at 8:35, so that's what I have on my reservation, but I got an email from SNCF saying that the departure time had been changed to 8:20 and that the ticket would be automatically updated.If I have a seat reservation where the departure time is 8:35, will that reservation still be valid after the change in departure time, or do I have to re-book the seat for the new time?A minor problem is that I can no longer book seats on that 8:20 train online via raileurope.What can I do now? Anyone can help me?  

Hi allPlanning to be back on the rails for a two week trip around the end of August, so thought I’d see if anyone has any hot tips/suggestions. Family of four.We want to cover Copenhagen and Stockholm, and are thinking of adding Oslo to the mix if it’s worth it. Also want to do the Hamburg <> Stockholm sleeper (private couchette)No set dates as yet, and fairly flexible through AugustInitial thoughts are:London > BrusselsBrussels > Stockholm (via Hamburg and sleeper)Stockholm > CopenhagenThen back to London via Brussels (or maybe Amsterdam)or opposite way round: Brussels > Copenhagen > Stockholm > Brussels (via sleeper and Hamburg) Initial investigations suggest the sleeper is not yet up for booking. I also haven’t yet decided on whether to go interrail pass or not, but I suspect in order to get the Eurostar reservations I’ll need to decide this sooner than the sleeper booking opens up so may not really be able to price up properly. Assume the sleeper pricing is

Good afternoon!As the title says, everything was going smoothly with the eurail pass until we got to Switzerland. we bought a package for 3 adults that included a cable car from wengen-mannlichen, and a train ticket from kleine scheidegg-wengen with everything being discounted by 50% since we owned the pass and we only showed our activated passes to get the discount (NOT an active travel day). the issue came on the train ride where the ticket lady asked to see our tickets, which we showed, and proceeded to ask for our rail passes. we showed the activated passes but she asked to see the QR code from a travel day which we did not have. she immediately got visibly annoyed and said we have 30 seconds to activate a travel day otherwise she will fine us 270 CHF. since we were very confused, we said the guy we bought the tickets from only needed to see the active pass and she snapped (with very rude attitude) saying "too late you get the fine now"and proceeds to start writing it out.
