Hi. I' m travelling from Madrid to Lisbon on October 21st with my family on interrail. I have received good information in this group, but there are still things I do not quite understand. At the moment I can only find one connection (3 changes- 8-9 hours and with one change with only 3 minutes change time) during the day, I like to travel. Is that because the time table has not yet been put on the site? And if so- when will it normally be released? I'm not quite sure if there are many connections where you're not allowed to go with your interrail ticket. Do you by any chance know anything about that? Best wishes Agnethe.

We are a family of 3 with a four year old and planning to travel across 10 countries within 40 days time using Euro rail. Can anyone recommend buying first class is a good idea or would the 2nd class do the same job for a lower price? What extra benefits we get for first class? We will be covering Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Poland, Hungry, Netherland, France, Spain and Portugal. 

It's the first time I bought an interrail pass. Unfortunately for this weekend the reserved seats are already sold out, so I must choose the trains with non-reserved seats with more lay-overs. However, some lay-overs are just 6 or even 3 minutes. What if I miss one lay-over? Can I just take the next train with the Interrail pass without having to pay extra?

Hi all,I’m planning to travel on the Paris - Nice Intercités de Nuit on 8th September. I have a valid 1st class youth global pass and would like to reserve the 1st class (4 couchette) option. I have tried to reserve this using the Interrail booking system, Rail Europe, and B-Europe (as detailed in https://www.interrail.eu/en/plan-your-trip/tips-and-tricks/trains-europe/night-trains/intercites-de-nuit), however as soon as I get to the very last step of checking out I am greeted with an error message (see pictures below). I am able to reserve the 1st class on the following day, or 2nd class (6 couchette) on the desired day, with no problem.There are still 1st class seats available (as tickets, not reservations) on the SNCF Connect website, and I assume that those three reservation websites would either make it clear that this is sold out before entering all of your details or simply not list it as an option to reserve.Emailing these companies has not been much help, and I have been told

Hat jemand eine Idee wie ich am besten von Zürich nach L'Éstertit in Spanien komme?

Hello! I’m trying to travel from Paris to Amsterdam, and although I have a ticket from using my pass, there are no 2nd class seats available. There are 1st class seats available, but I do not have the 1st class pass. We were told we are able to buy the 1st class seat reservation, but I’m not sure how that will work since we only have a 2nd class pass. Am I able to upgrade my pass for 1 time only? Will they charge me for a 1st class ticket although I have a 2nd class ticket? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you! 

I’m trying to book a ticket from Munich to Verona on 12th September. The Man in Seat 61 gives trains which includes an 11:32 from Hbf but when I go onto the DB website it’s an 11:02 from Hbf and all the other trains that (per DB) day go from Munich Ost not Hbf. On OBB website they ALL go from Hbf. They’ve all got different departure times as well although they have the same train numbers.I have booked a reservation on OBB as it gives the trains and times I want but I’m now worried that perhaps OBB have not got the up-to-date trains, my train may leave from a different time and station and that my seat reservation won’t be valid.Who should I trust? Any ideas?

Just spoke to someone who went by train to Domodossola, Italy and found the trains not operating and the station deserted. How can I establish whether they’re operational again?

I am trying to book my seat reservation for the 12th-  tomorrow’s train from Paris to Amsterdam at 10:25 am from the Nord station. It is not letting me and in fact gives no options for this route at all, please help! So confused

It appears as if I have made all of my train reservations with Eurail, but I am a resident in Europe and purchased an Interrail pass. Are these tickets invalid? Can I still use them? Is there anything that I can do?????????

Dear fellow travellers, this is the first time I am using interrail. I have a flexi ticket for 4 days. I managed to book a seat on eurorail from London to Brussels (June 20th 2025 at 15.04). I paid and received the seat reservation. My understanding I have to add this trip to “my trip” on the app. But this train is not showing. Can I still travel with the seat reservation and somehow activate my day ticket on the app? Thanks in advance for the advice.

Hi all,I’m still trying to plot a route between Vienna and Zagreb over 2 days. I have been advised Graz but would prefer to be closer to Zagreb for a quick train in and car collection (meeting friends in Croatia) in the morning. We would like something a bit more rural after a few cities. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks so much!Sarah

I will be travelling from next week on an Interrail pass. Officially, it appears from the website that my iPhone is no longer supported by Interrail (it cannot be updated to iOS 16, which appears to mean that my Rail Planner app can no longer be updated). However, I did not notice until now (actually, it’s possible my phone was still supported when I bought the pass!): I still have the app and it still works just fine. I was able to add my pass and activate it, and QR codes are showing up as expected.The only issue I have encountered so far is that the schedule is not always up to date (e.g., Eurostar trains are not showing up at all), so that I am having to add some journeys manually (which, anyway, I have had to do in the past as well, even with up-to-date app versions). This probably reflects the fact that it’s an old version of the app.Do you think there is any risk that the QR codes generated by my app might not scan or be considered invalid? (I cannot tell how old my app version

I am looking to travel in Late October, so within 90 day booking window, and when I search reservations for trains from Madrid to Caceres, I see the train I want is available and reservations can be booked, but when I log in to purchase, they are no longer available and I get a message “No Price Results were found, Passholder reservations may be sold out”I have tried different browsers and even tried rail Europe (no results found for this route) and Happy Rail (no prices found). Can any one identify my problem and have a resolution?

Hello, just a question about the 5 day pass: Can I choose the days during which to travel? If I understood well during a 2 weeks trip I can take a train only 5 times? Thanks a lot  

We are traveling around Europe in October 2025 : Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Luxembourg, Belgium Netherlands. Several of the journeys have transfers and I am using 20 min as a filter. My question is what is a safe amount of time to allow for transfers?

I have uploaded my EURail Global pass in my mobile phone Rail Planner App.I was creating My Trip to connect to my EURAIL Global pass.By mistake I created a journey on 14th August in stead of 14th September.How do I delete my 14th August journey or modify it? Regards 

I will be travelling in Scandinavia in September and got a 15 day Interrail pass. I will probably downgrade it to 10 days due to travel plan changes. However I have already booked seating reservations for trains in Sweden via SJ stating the pass number of my 15 day pass. In the reservation in the App it also states my pass number and there is no button to change it. Is it possible to just change the pass number on my reservations without paying extra?Thanks in advance for your help!

How do book an overnight sleeper compartment for two from Prague to Budapest?

I am travelling tomorrow from Lyon to Nijmegen, but I have huge troubles finding a route. All the high speed trains towards Bruxelles from either Lyon or Paris are fully booked. Now I realize that is my mistake by not booking in advance. However, there are some other routes available but they just don’t pop up (for example Lyon-Paris-Lille-Bruxelles). If I would filter on no seat reservation, I am taking a crazy route that takes ages, so this does not work either. Is there any way to find the fastest route using the tool so that it only shows me trains that actually still have Interrail seats available? I think it is quite annoying that it does not show whether a route is even possible… Thanks in advance!!
