Booked on Eurostar from London to Rotterdam in January. Have the paper reservations but not activated my pass on the app. As my end destination is Berlin I've noticed that I would get there earlier if I got off the Eurostar in Brussels rather than going on to Rotterdam. If I did this would it cause an issue upon my arrival in Brussels? Thanks

I can't see this particularly query answered. We've got a 22day pass and will be travelling in June from the UK from Stockport to London Euston & then the Eurostar to Brussels. We can book the Eurostar now but not from home to London as those tickets / train times will not be known till March. Will there be any issue adding that uk journey later (same problem on the way home) or will i have used up my inbound / outbound trips? TIA

Are all trains between Interlaken-Grindlewald-Lauterbrunnen-Interlaken included in the pass? If i use the pass to travel between these stations would it count as 1 day of travel? I will be staying in Grindlewald and exploring surrounding areas only and not sure if i should use my pass or hire a car which is going to be around £500 including petrol+parking etc.thanks

Hello everyone, I’m new to Eurail and looking forward to my trip in march. I made a couple of reservation already but I’m having trouble with my most important one as I need to make it from Monaco to Barcelona and I can’t make the reservation. any help would be greatly appreciated. on the side note, for the train that don't require a reservation do i only show them my pass ? Thank you

Hi,I bought several Interrail passes and I see only one Order Number in the e-mail (or here at eurail.com) and four Pass numbers. For booking Frecciarossa reservations at https://partners.italiarail.com I need the Order Number for each pass of each traveller, not just one.In the past I could find a link to a site on this website that did the conversion for each Pass number but I can’t find it any more.Does this still work like that?Note that this is horrible in terms of user friendliness, both on the side of Eurail (just provide it if anyone could ever ask it) and on the side of ItaliaRail. Hopefully there is a better way to get my Frecciarossa reservations, but I could not find any yet…TIA!--ReindeR ItaliaRail screenshot 

So here is the problem. I am planning to get an Interrail ticket for 2 months in a row. I want to make multiple trips starting from my home country, the Netherlands. The ticket only got 2 inbound/outbound journeys. So that is only for one trip. For the other trips I would have to get a train ticket to a first station across the border, I learned today. For me it is also an option to drive to a station close to the border in Belgium (or Germany), park my car there, to start a journey at that station. That is often cheaper than getting a ticket for the first station abroad. For example, I start my journey in Essen (Belgium). The first station in Belgium on the Roosendaal to Antwerp line. It is a 125 km return drive for me, so roughly 20 euro in costs with the car. With public transport it would be 35 euro return.This is the starting point of my journey in the Netherlands, by car or public transport. My question for the community: does someone have experience with the same "problem”? If y

Hello everybody, i booked a night train from Hambourg to Stockholm on january 20th on the SJ website.

I wish to request Upper Deck seats for our Lyria Train from Geneva to Paris. Is this possible?

I can't make a reservation because the stations in Serbia and Montenegro are not listed, but can I make a reservation for a train by going to the station counter and showing my pass?

Hi Interrailers!My wife was given a 2-month global pass as a great retirement present, for herself and me. I’m still working, however, and taking two months off is a little tricky.So we were looking at the possibility of exchanging it for a one-month pass. Trouble is, it seems that the existing pass would be refunded - to the credit card of my wife’s former employer, which would be very awkward. For my wife, that’s a clear no-no.I was wondering, if i purchased a more expensive package, could i simply pay the extra, and avoid the refund? Does anyone happen to know?Thanks in advance,Badger

Hello. This is our first post on the community. My wife and I will travel to Europe in mid 2024. We have travelled internationally for business, and are now retired and seek the assistance of the community. We will travel from Australia. We have looked at the senior options for the 15 days in 2 months vs the 2 months in a row. We are also looking at first vs second class. I read on the community that if you depart at 11pm and arrive the following morning, that may count as 2 days travel. Is that the case? Should we consider first over second class? For two seniors, the cost for 15 days in 2 months is $2072 AUD for first class vs 2 months in a row $2438 AUD for second class. Our plan is to travel through France, Switzerland and Portugal. Maybe some side trips along the way. We would appreciate your advice and input.

1.I already bought Eurail Italy Pass. if i choose a station Chiasso(Switzerland) to Milano Centrale can i use this pass without pay? (from Switzterland i also have Swiss pass).2.

We are planning to travel from Paris to Milan on June 3rd. We were originally going to travel from Paris directly to Rome, but with the landslide that is impacting train travel on this route, we decided to overnight in Milan, and then continue to Rome the next day. I’ve seen that by the time we travel, there will be a 'direct' route that includes a bus, but we'd prefer to travel by train the entire route.We’ve seen the recommendation on this site to travel from Paris to Zurich and then Zurich to Milan. We want the fastest route, and since it’s a special vacation, are happy to reserve and pay for business class.My question: when I try to book this route, it doesn't appear that all of the trains are available to book yet - is this correct?We are trying to balance booking early enough to get the seats and timing we’d like, but fear booking too early and missing more desirable trains that may not be scheduled yet.  We had heard that booking 4-6 months out would be ideal, is this correct?An

Hi,I'm from Belgium and want to buy an interrail pass traveling 4 days in a month. Can I visit the UK and come back, and then do the same thing for a second time with this pass?Thanks already 

Hi! I'm trying to book a Nightjet from Stuttgart to Venice on April 9, leaving Stuttgart at 20.29, but it seems to be impossible to book this nightjet on OEBB via ‘Seat reservation only’, wheras normal tickets can be booked. Can anyone help me, how to I book this train?Kind regards,Henk-Jan

I haven’t used Eurail since 1998!  Are all routes included?  I’d like to travel from Venice to Orta San Giulio to Zermatt.  also wondering about British rail as I’ll be travelling between family members

Agradeço demais quem puder me ajudar. Estou analisando a vantagem de adquirir o Eurail Pass Global. Irei passar 45 dias na Eurooa fazendo o percurso abaixo: Paris - Luxemburgo - Lucerna -Zurich -  Spiez (Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen) - Milão - Genebra - Lyon - Barcelona - Madri - Lisboa - Coimbra (irei me fixar 15 dias por lá, porém pretendo ir em Porto e Fátima)O Pass Global cobre todos esses lugares? é vantagem? 

Hey, I have a global Interrailpass for 4 days. I travel into and out of Poland with it on two days. But now I want to use the other 2 days in Germany. I have the app, but it says I can’t. Why is that? 

Folks, can I use the Interrail Pass EURO 2024 to travel around Europe during the euros like a normal inter rail pass. Or am I limited to coming to and from my home country and travelling within germany? Help appreciated 

Hi there, We are new to Eurorail using a mobile app or the website. We purchased two Global passes (15 days over 2 months) which are meant to be linked in the Trip plan.We have been able to reserve seats for Brussels to London (Eurostar website) but have had no joy in trying to book seats elsewhere via Eurorail website.  We are spending most of our time in Spain (3 weeks), and then traveling via Lyon and Brussels to the Netherlands.Trying to reserve seats for trains in Spain online is impossible even when it is within 90 days of travel.  Do we have to resort to reserving seats a few days before travel at the local train station and therefore try potluck as to availability.  How does this work with the organising our trip planner.  From looking at other posts it seems that Spain is a difficult Eurorail destination.  All our hotels are prebooked so it is near impossible to change our holiday.Thanks in advance for some help.Michelle

Hi,I’m from Autralia and looking at train travel in the July 2024 period in Switzerland, Italy and France. On some routes that I’ve searched in the timetable through Italy and France (Riviera to Paris), there’s no train routes coming up. For example, Geneva to Milan shows nothing at all, even the trains that don’t need a seat reservation. Are all the reserved seat trains sold out? Maybe because of the Olympics? Is it possible to have your Eurrail pass with you and get on a train that doesn’t need a reservation on the day of travel assuming they’re running? Thanks

Getting started and i need help. 

I’m a NZ & UK dual citizen currently living in Canada. I did Interrail back in 2013 when I lived in London, and from what I remember I couldn’t use it for train journeys WITHIN the UK, but I flew to Denmark and went via Switzerland to Spain anyway so it didn’t matter.This time I’m planning to fly in/out of London and want to do mostly slow travel to get around - bike/ train/ ferry. I want to take a couple trains within the UK/ Ireland probably and then over to mainland Europe + across to probably Eastern Germany/ Denmark/ Sweden. Does the restriction of travel in your “home nation” still apply? Would it be best for me to get Interrail using my UK passport + sister’s address, or Eurail using my NZ passport + Canadian address?Also, if anyone has done interrail/eurail with a bike please give me tips. The Chatbot said to check the linked schedule for bike options and then linked me to a Deutschbahn page. It also said I need to “buy a separate ticket” for my bike but I don’t remember ev
