Solved

I am organizing an Interrail trip for this summer, and I was planning to travel on July 27 on the Nightjet 40233 from Vienna to Rome. I have seen that trenitallia has already published the summer timetable so I often check to see if the train is already on sale. However, when looking this afternoon I saw that none of the trains that go to Italy (Milan, Venice) are available to buy, and their timetable already came out months ago. I have searched obb scotty and it appears that there is construction work between Villach and tarvisio between July 12 and July 28, so many day trains will not be available and night trains will be rerouted. Therefore I don't know if I should wait for the summer trains to Rome to leave since I'm not sure if the one on the 27th will be available so I don't know if I should start looking at flights. If anyone knows if these trains are going to go on sale one day, please help me. Thank youP.S: All trains that go to Venice before July 12 and after July 28 can be p

Hello,At the moment i'm planning my interrail journey for the summer and i want to take the European Sleeper from Amsterdam to Prague, I saw that it soon come into use. But I can't find anywhere how much it costs with a interrail pass, for example a couchette. The only price i can find is on the European Sleeper site itself and the it's €89. But i was hoping that it would be cheaper with an interrail pas ;)) Can someone maybe help me with this? Kind regards,Teun

Hi there, My partner and I are travelling around Europe. We are both currently living in the UK but are from NZ. I have a UK passport but she does not - do we need to buy separate passes to travel on the rail lines? I.e. do I need to get an Interrail pass and she gets a Eurail pass? Thanks

Hello, My husband and I are about to embark on a three month trip using eurail global passes.  I have loaded legs on “my trip” in the app and paid for any needed seat reservations.  Questions: Can I somehow transfer the “journeys” to my husbands travel app on his phone or will he need to manually add each trip?  FYI - He has his ticket on his phone and I on mine? If seat reservations are not required what do we show when boarding the train, is there a QR code or something once the pass is activated? I have read we should activate the ticket in advance of our travel date but ensure we cancel it by 23:59.  Do folks often have problems?  I just want to make sure there is no issue with cancelling the initial activation as I don’t want to lose precious days..  Thanks for your insight.   

Hi. We are planning to take this train using our Eurail Pass. We would appreciate any advice that you can share. There are two of us travelling. I have read about Prestige class. Should we consider that? Once we arrive in Montreaux, we need to get to Geneve. Should we take the train or boat?

Hi all, so I've just bought our global Eurail pass and then booked our seats on the Eurostar for early September, London to Amsterdam via b-europe site, but can't work out how to get the booking details on my rail planner, as it doesn't automatically link up, so won't use a travel day. Does this matter? Thanks for any help understanding this 🙏 

Hi   Planning a 3 week trip from Zurich to Milan to Florence to Nice and back to Zurich. While in Milan, will take trip to Conque Terra, Mont Blan, Lake Garda.

Hi, we’re new to Interailing but are planning a trip across the Netherlands. Germany, Switzerland and France then back to the UK (via Eurostar) in August.ive tried to use the route planner on the website but it doesn’t seem to have smaller rail stations in the database.  Can  please check if the pass can be used within all of countries listed above please, on trains between cities of various sizes, not just major cities?  Thanks

I am taking my mom and sister on their first (and likely only) trip outside of the US, so we will be taking the train to a handful of countries. My question is whether our passports will get stamped upon arrival?  If that’s not standard, is there a way to request it? I think they’d really like having stamps in their brand-new passports!

Hi there!My family and I are travelling from La ciotat to the UK (Stroud) on 2nd June.There’s a 9.55 from La Ciotat to Marseille but that leaves just a 17 min transfer time for the Paris train from Marseille. Is this too short a transfer time? Thank you for any guidance.   

It is too early for me to book a seat as they are not available for July yet, but I have been looking to get an indication of price for budgeting.I am using 2x Adult and 1xChild (9) 1st Class Passes. If I try to book a seat reservation it only offers me 2nd class, if I remove the child then 1st is offered. Should I make 3 adult seat reservations as my passes are all 1st Class? 

Hello, I am trying to reserve seats to travel between Brussels and Amsterdam. Through the Eurail website I booked EUR 9303, which leaves at 7:52 am, but when I go to the seat reservation page it only shows me train EUR 9301, so I don't know how to make the reservation. Otherwise, I cannot find the trains EUR 9322 for the Amsterdam-Brussels route and ES 9125 for the Brussels-London route. Could you tell me what these situations are due to or where I should make reservations? Thank you so much.

Dear Interrail-Passengers!There are wrong informations in the Interrail App which should be improved as soon as quicky.1: The ICE 105 from Amsterdam to Karlsruhe Hbf will drive at Sunday 25 February and over Utrecht, Arnhem Emmerich(Gr), Oberhausen and so further.2: Interrail is only subject to reservation in the period from June until August (exact days for this year are unknown by me).Hopefully interrail could approve this before 25 February.Ragards,David

My husband and I need to book seats ASAP for March 31, a popular day. We want to travel from Victoria Station in London to Shoreham by Sea. When I begin to book this it says, second traveller. Then it asks for my Europass number. It tells me it is above the QR code on our paper pass. That is an 8 digit number. When I try to type it in, it is too long!!!! So how in the world am I to find my pass number. It also says it is in our ‘confirmation email.’ We neve got a ‘confirmation email.’ Feeling desperate here. Many thanks!!!Leslie

Hi Everyone. Just to introduce myself as Dave from “Up North” (Middlesbrough). I’m looking to purchase a Flexi Pass (4 days) for the first time as I’m thinking about treating myself to a trip aboard for my 55th birthday next month. Due to my irrational fear of flying my preference is to try the train option. For me the purpose of the train option is basically a means to an end as I’m looking to spend 5 days in Benidorm. In a nutshell I’m thinking 2 days travel each way with an overnight stop somewhere between. If i can call on your good selves experience do you think this is doable with a 4 day pass? Also, can I use my first day on the pass to travel from Darlington to Paris (as i was a little confused with The Man In Seat 61’s explanation)? I’m trying to factor in costs but am i right in saying its a bit of an unknown due to the varaible cost of seat reservations. Will that cost make the trip financially nonviable maybe? Thanks in advance for any help as it will be well received. Dave

I land in Frankfurt. I eventually go on a river/bike cruise on Danube River from Passau. Can Global pass be used to get from Frankfurt to Passau?

We want to take the Santa Claus Express from Turku (departure 20:20) via Tampere to Kemijärvi (arrival 8:50). Does anyone know how many travel days are required for this night train?

Hi,I am planning to leave Nice on Many 27 and arrive in Barcelona on the 28. Is there an overnight train from Nice to Barcelona? 

I’m trying to book the night train from Rome to Munich for 11 April. My wife and 2 children are travelling so would like a 4 berth cabin for us. I have tried to book through the Interrail website as well as using int.bahn.de, obb.de, trenitalia.com but for vague reasons all have said I can’t make the booking. I have tried to call bahn.de on +49 (0) 30 2970 and +49 (0) 30 311-682904 but constantly.get messages that the service is busy.Any suggestions from people who have managed to make this booking would be gratefully received. 

Hi, I would like to go on holiday to Bolzano (Italy). I would buy an Interrail global pass because it is cheaper than a regular ticket. I start my journey from Antwerp.Antwerp → Brussels → Frankfurt → München → Bolzano.I have some questions:I should take 4 trains on 1 day to get to Bolzano. Can I travel with an Interrail global pass? Is it correct that I have to pay extra for the train between Munchen -> Bolzano? Is that the only additional amount that I have to pay?

Hi, I’m intending to buy two Mobile Passes in the Spring Promo to be used in July. I’ve read that there is a requirement to connect the App to the internet every three days to ensure the Passes remains usable. I’m assuming that this only has to be done once I activate the Passes and want to start using them and not during the four months between buying them and starting to use them. I’d be grateful if anyone could let me know if this is correct please.

Hello,I am planning a family vacation in July 2024. I purchased 5 Day 1 Month Global Pass for me and my family.  I was able to reserve seats for us to go from London to Paris but when I go into Seat Reservations and attempt to reserve seats from Milan Italy to Florence and other trips from one Italian city to another for middle of July (still within the 1 month timeframe of my first planned train ride from London to Paris), I get an error message “We can't find any trains that match your search. Please change your search and try again.”  I have tried multiple cities, times, stations, and I continue to get the error when going through Seat Reservations.  I know trains are running because I can go onto other sites and see them available.  I am willing to pay for the seat reservations.  Am I doing something wrong? Am I able to purchase seat reservations before my passes are activated for July (I was able to with London to Paris)?  Is there an issue getting seats reserved for cities in Ita

Hi,I’m thinking of buying a 4 day Global pass:Day one I will travel from my local station to Birmingham New Street, then to London Euston, then to the Eurostar to Brussels then Change to Düsseldorf.Day Two and three I will just explore Germany using the ICE and regional trains. Then Day Four, I will take the exact same journey as I did on Day one back to the UK.Will travelling on the S-Bahn and RegionalBahn take away one of my travel days meaning I will have to buy a 5 Day pass or not? 

We plan to travel between Verona and Innsbruck on successive days. Verona-Trento-Bressanone-Brenner-Innsbruck.I understand that for the Frecciarossa trains we would need to pay for a seat reservation so we would not get those trains. On some of the other trains there is (differently phrased depending on whether I look at Train Europe or the RailPlanner or Trenitalia) some trains that  say that a supplement is required and a few where no supplement is required. many questions are what is correct for non-reservation trains? For an hour or so we would not get the trains that require a reservation. Do we need to pay a supplement (I think we pay this at the station?) for each time we use one of those trains even though we are not crossing into Austria until the final day?   

My girlfriend and I are planning an Interrail trip to the UK this summer. We would like to take the Eurostar from Paris to London on 28 June. We have not yet bought an Interrail pass as we are still hoping for a discount. So we have not yet been able to book seats on the Eurostar.Now we are not sure how long we can wait, i.e. how quickly do Eurostar seats usually sell out? I am happy to hear any tips and experiences :)
