Train connections & reservations

I searched for this and really didn’t find an answer.I hope I can explain this right. I leave next week for a month trip in Europe and I have everything saved in the Rail Planner app. Have not activated my pass yet but all the trains that needed reservations I have booked and paid for. I accidentally deleted one of those trips. The first leg of the journey is the one that required the reservation. Is there a way for me to recover this? I have 2 more transfers before I get to my final destination with no idea what time I have to catch the train or for that matter what stations I will transfer at. I tried to go back in to “rebook” the journey so I could see the rest of it but it’s not even there to look at anymore. Is there anything I can do? Thanks for your help with this.

I’m traveling in France and Belgium on October 3rd and 4th! I am not able to buy any tickets! I was looking at Paris to Brussels on Oct 3. I was looking at Bruges to Amsterdam Oct 4. i’ve been looking since the beginning of june and it has said the same message every time. no seats available at this time. I’m wondering why this is. I asked the eurrail customer service team and they said check back in a week. it’s been about a month now and i’m very curious. Thank you to anyone who can help!

’m planning to travel through the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, and other nearby countries starting December 13, 2026. I’d like to make seat reservations for the trains on my itinerary as soon as possible, but I keep receiving a message indicating that no trains are available.Could you please let me know when seat reservations will open for the trains I’m planning to take? I’d also appreciate any information about how far in advance reservations can typically be made for these routes.

hello,I am looking at a Christmas Market train trip through Europe in 2027. I am wondering if anyone has tips on how to book these tickets in advance. We will be a large group. Thanks

Hi community, We are travelling Florence to Rome and have seat reservations for 29/9 (booked through Eurail) but want to change the trip to the next day. Is it possible to change the date of seat reservations, or do we just have to buy new ones? I can’t seem to find this out on the Trenitalia site! Ta, Maria 

Anyone has suggestion for the best comfort route from Amsterdam to Bologna italy ? I also noticed a “bug” related to night trains in the trip planner from the App, when selecting night train option in the planner nothing shows if your itinerary has multiple legs and only one is with night trains . Seeing no options I booked for now daytime I am going via Munich, trying also chuchuu.com to verify train reliability as after one booking a timetable was different from the journey in the German train DB website and schedules!please provide options for my comeback from Bologna to Amsterdam, probably a night train would be better for me! tomorrow going viaAmsterdam → Duisburg HBf (ICE) → Munich HBf (RJ)→ Bologna centrale   

I am writing to inquire about the seat reservation rules and validity of the Eurail France One Country Pass for cross-border TGV Lyria routes.Specifically, I am planning to travel from Basel (Basel SBB / Bâle SNCF) to Paris (Paris Gare de Lyon) on a direct TGV Lyria train. I checked the Rail Planner App, which indicates that the France One Country Pass is valid and supports seat reservations for the TGV Lyria segment from Basel to Mulhouse. Since the direct train from Basel to Paris travels through Mulhouse anyway, does this mean the pass fully covers the entire direct journey to Paris?Furthermore, I would like to know if this same logic applies to the TGV Lyria route between Paris and Geneva. As Geneva is also a border station, can I use the France One Country Pass to book a direct train (TGV Lyria) from Paris to Geneva?Thank you for your time and clarification. 

hello everyone, I won the interrail ticket via Discover EU and I began booking my trains. One journey goes from Paris to Valencia. Accidentally I booked the journey for the wrong date. I want to travel one day earlier. I also used two of my four credits to book the seat reservations.  I’ve been researching on how to change the seat reservations but I couldn’t find any results so I wanted to ask wether someone knows how to change the date.  thanks for your help! 

Hi there,Does anyone know what days does the Leo express train operates from Poland/ Bohumín to Frankfurt Süd. I think the website states everyday. I am hoping to travel on the 31st of August from Krakow. This train existed on the Leo express website and then a few days ago it just disappeared. It is still listed on the SBB app. Also, does anyone know if it is possible to make an Interrail reservation in the couchette sleep cabin please? It does not work on the Leo express website when you apply the Interrail discount. It comes up as unavailable/ soldout. Would really appreciate someone's help. ​@rvdborgt ​@Sebastian Vetter 

Hello everyone,I'm planning a trip and I'll be using a global pass for my train travels. I've heard that it's possible to book tickets directly at train stations without having to pay for individual tickets, but rather using the pass. Can anyone share their experience with this process? How does it work, and are there any specific steps or tips I should know about when reserving tickets with a rail pass at the train stations?Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi all,I have adventured without flying with my family for many years but this is my first time planning a trip using an Interrail pass. We’re planning a trip to Morocco next summer. If I can combine outward / inward train travel in the UK with the Eurostar it should come out as more economical then buying advanced tickets, but only if I can work out the reservations in Southern Spain!And this is where I am coming unstuck...I want to travel Barcelona - Málaga outwards, then either return the same way or go Málaga - Madrid - Avignon in July / August next year (yes, I really like advanced planning!!). I am using Rail Europe to check reservation prices and to get an idea of likely availabilty of reservations. Trouble is, if I request three or four reservations at once there are none available no matter how far in advance I ask to book. But if I ask for two, reservations are possible on many trains with only a week or two notice. Are there really only two pass holder reservations available

I found the advice to contact interrail when my reservation email did not come. ybut how?? no phone number, not even an email adress.

Hello when i am looking at my reservations i cant find the local trains connecting me too the bigger stations, i saw them when i booked but not when i look at it now. 

Hello,I booked some seat reservations for me and my partner via the interrail website by adding us with our passes to a trip I created.In the Rail Planner App only I can see the Trip and more importantly the reservations in my account, she has no possibility to view or show the tickets on her phone.Am I missing something so we can view the reservations both or is this just bad design? Any help would be appreciated 

I made a seat reservation from Venezia Mestre to Rome Termini for my upcoming trip on September 19 on a departing train at 8:34 AM but now I wanted to catch an earlier same rout train whichstarts at 7:38 AM. Ca anyone suggest how to switch my existing reservation to a different train? Thanks

Hi, i have to travel todayUnable to book seat for Frankfurt to Paris I am not able to the book the seat, is there any issue with the reservation system?

We were booked to go from Frankfurt to Copenhagen by train from Frankfurt to Hamburg Hbf then Hamburg Hbf to Copenhagen. There was just one problem - the train to Copenhagen went from Hamburg Altona not Hbf and there wasn't time to make the connection. Fortunately DB were able to get us on a later train with seats reserved but we are arriving a couple of hours later than planned.It's definitely worth checking that the connections offered are correct and actually work!

If my ticket can't be scanned, what should I do? The route is Rome Termini-Bari, the controller tells me that he can't scan the QR code 

Hi, In the interrail planner it says that there are no more available seats for the eurostar from Paris to Amsterdam on this date, but in raileurope the seat still looks available. Is this possible? Or will I get an error later or have to stand?The times are also off by 5 minutes but I assume that’s a glitch.  

Hello!Interrail just announced relay strike action that will impact rail networks across the Netherlands on the 9th, 13th and 15th of September which affect my travels and I don’t know what to do now and need advice.Interrail states: “There will be no trains throughout the Netherlands on these days.” On the 9th I’ll travel from Berlin to Amsterdam, will this also be cancelled, how do I know?On the 15th I’ll travel from Amsterdam to Paris and the Thalys website does not state that these trains are cancelled (only a few due to construction), so how do I know if it is cancelled or not? 

Cuando planifico mis días de viaje en la app, en cada tramo de tren me aparece “Está listo para abordar”, “Puedes comprar una reserva de asientos si lo deseas, pero no es obligatorio” o bien “Este es un tren popular. Se recomienda hacer reserva de asientos, pero no es obligatorio”. Mi duda es (sobretodo cuando aparece la segunda o tercera frase) si puede que el tren esté completo y no dejen subir a pasajeros sin reserva o bien, como en nuestros trenes de cercanías, siempre queda la posibilidad de viajar de pie.

Why when I look at my train journey plan and trip book seat does the app not allow me book through the app?
