Solved

I have a Euro Rail Global Pass for my wife and I, both Australian Senior Citizen. Our planned Itinerary for Italy and Switzerland are starting on 31 May 2024:Castiglion Fiorentino (attending a wedding) to Naples (2 nights in Naples), From Naples to Florence (2 nights), Florence to Venice (2 nights), Venice to Milan (1 night). We will come back to Rome for 2 night stay to take our flight back to Australia on 17 June Travelling to Switzerland on 7 June travelling as per below trajectory: Milan to St. Moritz via Bernina Express (1 night), St. Moritz to Zermatt (2 nights) using Glacier Express, Zermatt to Interlaken (3 nights) using local/regional train. From Interland we will try to cover Jungfrau, Mount Pilatus, Mount Titlis and a day trip to Geneva using Golden Line.Given train travel in Italy is not that expensive and we do no really need first class travel we intend to amend our Euro Global Pass dates from 22 days to 10 days just to cover Switzerland. That will save me probably A$$800

Hi, I like to ask , can I buy or book a train tickets from another station ? If I  plan to department from Paris Montparnasse to Mont St Michel , do I need to go down to Paris montparnasse to book the train ticket or  I could go to other paris main train station to book my tickets? 

We’ve bought interrail tickets and I’ve just bought a Eurostar ticket for August and received the E-ticket. However it doesn’t tell us where we’re sitting and didn’t ask us where we wanted to sit. Should I have seat numbers? Is it because it’s so far in advance? I’m hoping we’re together as we have a young-ish child! Also we have some friends who want to book separately and want to try to book seats near us. Postscript - I’ve just received a separate email saying I need to validate the tickets with Eurostar to get the seat numbers. Keeping this post up in case it helps others...

I'm on a local train trip which is not in your app. How do I add it? 

Hello, I was trying to add journey in Rail planner from Brussels Midi to Amsterdam Central on 19th April at 6.45 departure and returning on the same day at 18.28 pm for a day trip. This seems to be a 2.50 mins long journey and  a direct one too.However, I came across the supplement required for the same needs to booked either on-board, online or at the station. I tried to book it online but couldn't find any proper instructions on the site.So the question is, is this mandatory? If yes,how to go ahead?If No, then I am very concerned that without any seat reservation, we might not be able find any available seat in the train.It can be fully occupied. Or in an unfortunate case, extra amount to pay if caught travelling without proper seat reserved tickets.Kindly guide.Thanks in advance.

Dear everyone,I am trying to book a reservation from Paris to Barcelona using my Interral 2nd class pass. However, the interrail websites say that prices are unavailable. I assume that means that all passholder availabilities are used up? In other forum posts, I read the recommendation to call SCNF and try booking that way. However, according to the interrail website, they only accept American Express as payment, which I do not have.On the SCNB website I found only first class reservations for the date I need to travel. But I presume it’s not possible to book that with my 2nd class pass/to upgrade it for one reservation?Thank you very much in advance! Any help is much appreciated.Eva

Hi,I’m going to Switzerland and Italy with my family (2 adults, 2 youths), and am having a hard time figuring out if it’s worth buying a Eurail or Swiss Half Fare or both...here’s my itinerary…May 6 - Land in MunichMay 8 - Munich to LuzernMay 9 - Luzern to Interlaken to Wengen (stay 3 days and travel Jungfraujoch and several other local trains/gondolas)May 12 - Wengen to Zermatt (2 days)May 14 - Zermatt to Milan (1 day)May 15 - Milan to Como to Menaggio (3 days)May 18 - Menaggio to Como (2 days)May 20 - Como to Milan MXP  (1 day then fly home)Does it make sense to buy Eurail Global 4 days for the Munich to Luzern, and then the Zermatt to Como, Como to Menaggio, Menaggio to Como, Como to Milan, and use a Swiss Pass when in Switzerland?It wasn’t clear to me if Eurail gets me anything other than the major routes and a 25% discount on Jungfraujoch.Also, Swiss full pass vs half fare?Any other advice would be welcomed as well!

Earlier posts suggest that one can click on a big + (plus) symbol on the app under the “my pass” section and add another pass on the phone. However, on my iphone, there is no such interface and no plus symbol. Please advise how do i add my spouse pass as we will be using just 1 phone (mine) during our trip. I have already added my pass on the app but unable to add my wife’s. Thanks in advance

Hey there,I am trying to book a train from LISBON - SANTA APOLONIA (Portugal) to PORTO - CAMPANHA (Portugal).  When I enter the relevant details on the interrail planner I get the following.There is no relevant information on the more information.  So I assume I need to book directly from CP - Comboios de Portugal.  But when I try and book there, it is full price.  I couldn’t see anything that said I just need to reserve a seat.  If that is the case, then why do I need a Eurorail pass?  I have Eurorail global passMaybe I missed a step, can someone help please?Thanks in advance  

Hi Community. We are thinking of taking the night train to Zagreb in late May this year. I have read on this forum that I should book the sleeping car using tickets.oebb.at. Is this the best option? Would appreciate input re Zagreb as we have never been to Croatia. Was thinking of taking the train to Split. Not sure of what to do next. As always, would appreciate your advice. 

I would like to purchase a 10 day in 2 months Eurail Global Flexipass for travel between May 30 and July 10.  Total duration of travel is 42 days but my travel occurs in three months (May, June, and July).  Will a 10 day in 2 month pass cover 10 days of travel in the period? 

During my trip to the Greek islands I want to go from Santorini to Heraklion, in the app there is no possibility, but when I book seats on the website yes, will there be any problem afterwards? Or can I only reserve seats on the ferries that appear in the app?

No tickets available for night trains from Bologna to Munich after 8th of june. I can now see the departure in august, but no tickets available. I have checked other days/weeks and still no tickets. It is hard to believe all tickets are sold out, but isn't time to be able to book for beginning of august? Regards Karina 

Hello,Looking for some advice on this as we are from the USA and do not have experience with Eurail or Interrail.This coming August we are looking to take our family of 6 people (2 adults and 16, 11, 11, 6) to a UK/France/maybe Belgium trip.If we bought a Eurail Global pass is there a way to get from Central London area to Stafford, UK?? When I enter this on the Eurail planning tool, Stafford does not come up on the tool. Perhaps some of you know how to get around this and book it.Ideally we would want to use this Eurail Global pass to get from London to Stafford, back to London on a later day. Then other travel days from London to Brussels, then to Paris, and maybe then to Versailles and back. Only the Versailles would be the same day there and back and we would be spending overnights in the other destinations. I figure a 4-5 day travel pass should be adequate and probably worth it.Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

We are 2 female seniors traveling from Prague to Budapest and Budapest to Paris on overnight sleeper trains. These two trips are spaced about a week apart, in August and September 2024. We will have  global eurail passes. Where are on the reservation form (trainline.com) do we add the eurail passes?  Thanks in advance.

Im totally new to this and would appreciate some help! :) Just bought Interrail pass 2nd class for me and my 2 teenagers. I would like to know if anyone knows:Barcelona to Lourdes, 4th of AugustAre their trains on the route I have in the map? What is the most beautiful way to go there by train, interesting nature and mountains? What is the cheapest way to go there by train and only spend 1 day? Is it too early to book tickets for travel in August now? When I search I cant seem to find that many trains, sometimes no at all. But if I search for April/May there is trains.  Marseille - Tirano, 9th of AugustCheapest and fastest train to travel this day from Marseille in France to Tirano in Italy? It seems to be difficult when I look. :) Is it possible to do it in one day? 

Hi all, I'm trying to make a reservation and have added a trip but when I add a traveller I get an error message saying the details don't match? 

I am trying to book my train from Munich to rome via the interrial app, but it says that the trip is not included in the italy pass. After a bit of looking I also see that I need a supplement. I have been trying to figure out how to get one, but I just dont seem to get it. Can someone please help me figure this out?!

We are a couple that are planning to do a trip around Europe with our puppy, even if he is a young puppy, he will not be able to travel as a "luggage" due to size. Are there any countries we should avoid? Which countries are best for traveling with a pet? We dont mind paying, we just want it to be as hassle free as possible.

I understand that the German Rail Pass covers trains from Munich to Salzburg, but does it also cover trains from Salzburg to Munich? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, but the pass only shows trains TO Salzburg from Munich and not the other way round.Thanks!

i won an interrail global pass last year and want to use it this summer. My boyfriend would like to visit greece and the islands. But the ferries aren‘t included in the global pass. There is a special pass for the ferries for the islands and I would like to know, if it‘s possible to change the global pass into one of the ferrie ones?

Bonjour à tous,J’ai acheté un Global Pass 4 jours avec Interrail et je l’ai activé pour mon premier voyage : Toulouse-Cordoba. Je n’ai pas de soucis pour payer mon siège sur le Toulouse-Narbonne ni sur le Madrid-Cordoba.Par contre pour Narbonne-Madrid il est indiqué : “ Indisponible sur Interrail.eu. Cette réservation ne peut pas être effectuée sur notre site Web. Consultez « Plus d'informations » afin de découvrir les autres options pour réserver.” Et dans “Plus d’informations” je vois écrit : “Réservez sur place dans les grandes gares d'Europe” et “Reservations only locally at train station in Spain.”Ça veut dire qu’il n’y a aucun moyen de réserver mon siège en ligne ? Je ne vis pas en France métropolitaine donc c’est compliqué si je veux m’y prendre à l’avance… En tout cas je n’ai pas trouvé sur le site de RENFE comment réserver uniquement le siège…Merci pour votre aide et très bonne journée à tous!
