Train connections & reservations

Hi AllI have a 10 day in 2 month 1st class Eurail pass and I’m trying to book two reservations from Geneva to Paris on 2 Jan 2023 departing Geneva at 12:29 arriving Paris 15:45.  When I try to book the reservation on the Eurail reservation web site the first issue is it only give me an option to book 2nd class (rather than first class), and then when choose to select 2nd class i get an error message:“One of the legs of your journey is not available anymore. Please try searching for another connection” and also “ Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later or find another connection. This connection will be removed from your cart.”Is there a better website to book this reservation on or is there an issue with this particular train?Thanks for helping! 

Final question! I’ve just gone to print my oebb seat reservation tickets, I booked two seat reservations, but oebb is only giving me 1 ticket, and it doesnt even have my name on it - it has my partners. it has two seats on it though, and 2 passholders. im just super stressed i dont have a ticket! is this normal for oebb?

I want to book a train on Boxing day (26 december). The eurail planner shows many options, however, when I check the timetable of UK train companies, all of them do not offer trains on boxing day. Someone could help to understand that ? There is a risk that the trains in the eurail planner aren't going to depart on boxing day ?

Hi everyone, I'm planning to take the nightjet munich-Venice on 12th December, but the site says "booking not available". Do you know when the 2023 schedule will be complete? 

I have a mobile Eurail pass that includes free travel for my 2 kids (age 8 and 10).How do I add them as travelers to my pass so I can make a seat reservation for all 3 of us?I figured out how to do it for myself only.  

Hola. Viajo en enero y no me aclaro con las info que tenéis en la web. Quiero viajar desde Málaga hasta chamonix, luego a estrasburgo y friburgo y después a brujas,  y de brujas a Málaga.

I originally reside in Korea, and currently in London for travelI booked a ticket from Paris to Barcelona with a eurail pass even before coming to UKThe ticket was to be sent as a physical one, so I asked my airbnb host of where I'll be staying, that I could use the address of the place for the delivery and keep my physical ticket until I get there in person, which is this upcoming WednesdayThe delivery came but my host couldn't access the package, even though I stated my host's name and address very clearly when I made the reservation from eurail websiteMy host said that I need to make a document of power of attorney to the France post office, and we didBut my package got "went back to the sender" right after the POA document was systematically accepted, so my host could not get the physical ticket from the office for meAnd I was told this fact only from my host, never from Eurail nor France post office Has anyone had a same/similar experience?Does anyone know how to solve this kind o

HelloI have plans to travel from Dusseldorf to paris

Hi i am trying to book a trip in december for some reson i can’t book my seat reservations from amsterdam to  brussels or brussels to london. Does anyone know why, thanks in advance.

Hi, I am wanting to reserve a seat on the 15th Jan from Zurich to Zermatt. I was looking for advice on how to make reservations on the Swiss trains. I also wanted to check as this route has one change at Visp for only 6 minutes - is this enough time to change trains?Cheers,Hayley

Hi, I am trying to find a route from Stockholm to Levanger between the 16 and 18 of December. Everywhere I look it says that the prices are unavailable and I don't understand why I can't book this route but can book others.

We are trying to reserve a sleeper train online but at the checkout, it marks it as seat. Is there any way to confirm these are indeed sleeper trains? 

We will be visiting our daughter who is studying abroad. My husband and I bought global passes and are trying to get from Lisbon to Madrid on December 13. However, I am never able to see any trains scheduled after December 10. Why is that? This is stressing me out, as I like to have my plans in place. Thanks for a response.

Dear Eurail,Is there a way to choose a specific seat I want to sit in when I book a seat. If so, is there a tutorial on how to?ps: I'm taking the IC Berlin (Amsterdam-Berlin)Thanks in advance!

My partner just bought to Reservations for them and myself but we didn’t get an email confirming it or any tickets sent. We did book them while overseas.would there be a delay or is this a problem that needs to be fixed.

My partner and I have booked separate passes (both passes are the exact same Global pass) the passes have not yet been activated but we both have put in the date we wish for them to be activated.  Question: We want to book reservations for the train but are unsure if we will be together as we cant book specific seating. Is there a way to guarantee we will be sitting together?

Hi There,Hi have a couple of questions related to adding passes to a trip and make reservation for 2 people:Can I add two passes on my phone for reservation purposes? Can the second traveler add it to his phone in order to “activate” it at a later stage? Can I make reservation for 2 travelers with my phone indicating second traveler informations and if needed pass number? Will this be reflected on his phone when he connect his pass to our trip? Is it mandatory for the second traveler to make his own account to use the pass?For the time being this is all and I thank in advance people available to answer the above.Kind regards,GigiP.S. As I will have additional questions moving forward should I use the conversation option rather than the question one?

Hello! First time using Eurail and traveling between UK and Europe next year and have been watching many Youtube videos and reading posts but I still want to make sure I have everything planned correctly. I am having a little trouble making sure I am doing it right since some of the journeys are not showing up past December 10th, 2022 on the app. My itinerary is as follows: My partner and I have 2 global 7 day 1 month mobile passes.First trip: March 31 2023 London St. St Pancras - UtrechtI have purchased 2 reservations for St Pancras- Rotterdam already, but my question is when the train schedules become available on the Eurail app, I just add the journey to my pass from St Pancras to Rotterdam and then add a journey from Rotterdam to Utrecht? Is that all I need to show when I go to board? Do I just show my ticket on the Eurostar app and my Eurail mobile pass to board? Second trip: Nightjet sleeper train from Amsterdam - Basel (I bought these tickets separately since I couldn’t find any

Hi all,I’m trying to book two nightjets without luck and I can’t find anything, I was wondering if they have sold out?Milan to Vienna on the 26th of DecemberVienna to Amsterdam on the 29th or 30th of December Thanks  

Can anybody tell me which seating plan to look at for the ICE 9573 Paris Est to Karlsruhe at 10:55 on 24th Nov. Seats allocated through Interrail were not suitable as they were seating us one behind the other. I took Brendan's advice and telephoned SNCF. The lady was very helpful and changed the seats. However, I think I'm still in the same position. The seats are in first class in carriage 28 seats 71&72. I think the original seats were same carriage 41&42. As far as I can see they are in a single row or in a compartment for 6 by a corridor. Any help would be appreciated.

Me and my friends are struggling to find ANY trains available to take us from London to Brussels on the 17th December. Will more become available? or are there other good options of transport?Thank you! 

Hello all! Would you like to share your experiences with me regarding interconnectivity in Europe? How well are different countries and cities connected? Have you had any trouble reaching certain destinations? Were the trains you wanted to take always available or not? I am working on a university project hand I would love to speak to someone who can tell me more about their experiences. What made you decide to take the train rather than some other form of transportation? What are obstacles you faced with the railway system in Europe? And what could be improved in order for you to have a more pleasant experience in the future?Please let me know if you would like to share your experience with me. We could chat or do a (video)call. I also speak Dutch and German if that is more convenient for you than English. Thank you!With kind regardsChiara Kok
