Solved

I am trying to manually add ThamesLink journey from St Pancras to London Bridge because the Eurail app does not show trains. I have done this previously about 2 years ago but don't remember exactly how it's done. The Eurail app gives the following screen on starting manual addition: I entered the times approximately and train number is optional. Is this enough to generate a valid ticket or should I get exact train times from the ThamesLink app as below and put in exact departure and arrival times? Thanks in advance for your time! 

Hi there, My partner and I have finally purchased two eurail passes as we are travelling from Australia. We have not activated them as yet as we dont travel until june 16th this year. We both have the app on mobiles but are wondering how does this get validated by the train conductors ? Do they just check your phone for the pass or do they scan your phone ? Or do you have to print off a ticket every time from your phone to make a train trip ? I have always used and paid for paper tickets so this is very new for us, especially cause we plan to make 10 train trips so hoping for this to be simple. We may also need to get phone plans overseas as not sure if there is always working wifi.Thanks again.. 

Dear community,I am planning my next trip to Denmark, but on my way to one of my destinastions there are some railway maintance works, so no trains are running. There is a Togbus (Rail Replacement Bus) driving, but in the Interrail app it says it is out of network. On the website of Midttrafik it is stated that tickets wich are vailid on the trains, wich inlcudes Interrail, are valid on the Togbus. What are your experience in general with Togbus in Denmark? Do you guys have any experience with this?Thanks in advance!

traveling though europe in june. Trying to get from London to Barcelona on June 21st. Every train out of london is sold out. Does this mean the only option I have left is to fly out?

I have acquired a reservation with an IR-Pass. now I want to travel on the same train and keep theareservation but use it with a general trainticket.Is this possible? 

Bonjour, J’aimerais réserver mes places de train pour pouvoir être assise, mais je ne comprends vraiment pas comment faire. Je suis redirigée vers le site Interrail alors que je veux réserver mes places sur l’application DiscoverEU. Sur le site, on me parle de crédits pour réserver ma place et non d’euros. Ce n’est pas très clair, quelqu’un pourrait-il me détailler la procédure pour réserver ses places ? Merci

I am planning a trip in September/October starting from southern England and at the moment finishing in Vienna. If I flew to Scotland at the end of this trip could I use my inbound day of travel for a train from Scotland back to southern England? If that’s acceptable does the inbound travel day start as soon as I step off the flight or can it be started within the validity period for the global pass? Thanks in advance

I purchased my electronic passes (for two senior travelers) and put them into the Rail Planner app.Then I went to the website and purchased my reservations for three different days.  I was able to print those reservations.When I go to board the train, do I just show the reservations?  Or do I somehow need to show the pass on my phone?  I don’t understand how to bring up the pass.  It wants me to add Trips and Journeys, and I don’t really understand that since I have my reservations already - which are already in the app but not part of a “Journey.”  Oh, help!  I’m so confused and worried that the pass won’t work when we are there.One more question.  If I’m traveling to and from a destination on the same day, both trips only count as one day, right?

We are a family of 4 planning to travel on night trains in Norway this Summer. We have 1st class passes but this isn't always available which leaves my partner and 2 sons in a 3 berth cabin and me sharing with 2 female strangers. Is there any way to book 2 x 2 berths so we can travel together?

If I’m travelling from Amsterdam Centraal to Delft and need to change trains or platforms at Sloterdijk, with my paper Global Pass, do I write Sloterdijk or Delft as my destination. I won’t be leaving the station, just changing either platforms or trains.

Hi teamwe are coming to Europe in May and I had a few more questions.We are travelling in May but the global pass train from Rome to Paris with only one connection change in Milan has limited seats. How can I secure the seats in that line before without having to activate the pass? ( if we activate the pass now then we have 1 month to use it but we are coming next month) Are there police in the train stations and at what times we are worried about pick pockets in some of our destinations travelling with kidsyour assistance is greatly appreciated! wazma 

Soy nueva en Eurail, estoy realizando el plan de viaje pero tengo que eliminar un viaje y no me deja porque dice que debo eliminar primero a los viajeros, pero no deja hacerlo… 

Hello :)I am planning to go from Paris to Amsterdam to begin my trip in Europe. Then I would like to travel to Spain without crossing France. Could someone help me craft an efficient and interresting itinerary plase ?

I am considering hiring an ebike in and around Colmar next month to explore the surrounding countryside as well the city. But my experience of being a pedestrian in France has not always been the best. How safe is cycling in France? Also as a bike is a vehicle, do you need to carry a breathiliser? Apologies if this question isn’t suitable for this forum

I fear I have been hacked by someone impersonating EurailPass. I need to speak with someone to be sure that my transactions have been legitimate, PLEASE.  

Hola buenas soy Paula, soy de España y este año mi mejor amiga y yo queremos vivir esta experiencia, estamos un poco perdidas porque no sabemos cuáles son las mejores rutas ni tampoco cómo funciona, nosotras viajaremos en septiembre si alguien de España o Barcelona empieza la ruta como nosotras que nos contacte para ver qué ruta haréis o saber un poco más 

I would like to confirm my understanding that the Benelux Rail pass (already purchased) offers a ride on Eurocity Direct train from Brussels Midi to Amsterdam Zuid with no cost nor seat reservation. Is my understanding correct? Thanks. 

Hola, tengo mi pase Interrail de 7 días pero no entiendo cómo funciona, es decir puedo utilizar 7 días los trenes que quiera ? O por ejemplo estoy dos semanas pero lo utilizo 7 veces y sirve. no entiendo muy bien el funcionamiento

Hello there, Trying to get a seat to go from Lyon to Bruxelles in July but it seems impossible to get a reservation. It tells the price and all but apparently we cannot make a reservation. Does someone know why ? Can we just not use interrail to go to Bruxelles from Lyon ? But then why does the price appear on this website ? It seems to be the same evryday, so not a problem of avaibility.At my train station they say they cannot book seat for interrail, but do you know if there i s a spot/train station I could ask for it ?   Thank your for your reply !Sarah.

Hi there!I’m travelling from UK > France > Spain in late May/June, and a family member purchased a Eurail pass for me which I’ve now loaded onto my phone but for some reason I cannot get my booking for the first leg of the journey onto the app? The family member already purchased seat reservations for us and I have the confirmation emails but that particular leg of the journey and times do not show up and there does not seem to be an easy way to add it. Any assistance would be much appreciated! 

Hi, I’m going inter railing for 3 weeks for the first time in June. I am travelling through Spain, south of France and Italy. I’m undecided on whether to take a suitcase or buy a backpack. Everywhere I am staying is close to all the train stations so I won't be walking around with luggage for long. just wondering whether to save the cost of buying a backpack and taking a suitcase that Ive already got. Thankyou!

Hi,I am looking to do a night train from Zurich to Ljubijana on May 23rd for the 20:40. I am very confused on the person. It says I need to buy a seat reservation of USD $18.53. Okay makes sense there. However when I go to OEBB website and click Seat Reservation only it says no tickets available. When I unclick that box, it shows me the cost of OEBB ticket starting at 55 euros and then whatever seat I want. I guess my question is, when I pay on Eurail for the seat reservation of $18.53, am I getting some sort of seat on OEBB or do I have to do something else on OEBB website?   

On the 17th of May we (my wife and I) from Venice to Napoli. By mistake I made seat reservations in the silent wagon. However it is nice to talk a bit to each other on such a long trip.Tried to correct this with Trenitalia customer service, tomnromal 1st claas, but found out that this is not easy.Questiion is double.Is silent very silent or is soft conversation allowed. In Holland itis a deathsin to make any noise. Can imagine that in Italy one is more easy.Or does someone know a fastlane for changing a seat booking? Thanks Haeije Manders

I want to use my Global Pass to travel from Paddington to Bristol Parkway. On the Eurail website I get “Not available from Eurail.com……Book online at www.acprail.com” When I go to ACPRail, i can’t use my pass, I have to purchase a ticket. Am I doing something wrong?
