Train connections & reservations

I am trying to make my train reservations from Lyon Part Dieu to Barcelona Sants for 26.12.  Journey begins at 11:06am. This is a 2 part journey.  It does not look like I can no longer reserve seats for part 1.  When I booked part 2 my transaction goes through but then I receive an email from Eurail stating something went wrong with the reservation.  It is extremely frustrating!  We are on a pretty tight travel schedule.  My biggest concern is getting the ticket from Nimes to Barcelona Sants on the 13:18 train.  I should have more options from Lyon to Nimes (regional train.)  Can anyone advise?  

Bonjour, j’ai réalisé une réservation, je suis arrivée au paiement et je n’ai toujours pas de réservation sur mon compte. Ne sachant pas si cela avait fonctionné, j’ai  réalisé une nouvelle réservation (j’ai peur d’avoir payé deux fois)Comment savoir si la réservation est prise en compte? Si j’ai fais la réservation deux fois, est-ce que je peux être remboursée de la deuxième commande? Le site n’est pas très clair,Merci Gabriela 

Hi,I am departing from Rome Termini to Rome Airport Fiumicino on 4 November. I purchased the Eurail 1st class pass for all my travels previously.I will like to check do I need to purchase a ticket to be guarantee a seat? I tried to purchase a ticket but most trains show “You're ready to board”. I am just concern that I may not be able to board the train on the actual day.If there is no tickets require to purchase, may I also check what do I show to enter the train platform?What do I show to the train person when he/she checks? Thank you in advance!

Hi again! Ive now successfully purchased all my trains but 1. From Lausanne to Paris. Im trying to book it through oebb but it has said tickets unavailable for weeks, and tickets through sncf are so expensive - they dont accept a eurail pass for discount. Where else can I book them that may be cheaper? Its cheaper through the eurail site at this point. 

Another appendix to the reservations thread, detailing why cd.cz has become my favourite place to buy seat reservations for central Europe; This really helped me out today when I realised that track works meant the 9-minute change at Ostrava that I had booked wasn’t going to be feasible; unlike at either bahn.com or oebb.at, many (or perhaps even all) reservation-only bookings at ČD are fully refundable.As well as domestic trains, you can also book most trains in all of Czechia’s neighbouring countries, generally priced at 75Kč each. This is only €0.07 more than at oebb.at, and is usually* quite a bit cheaper than at bahn.com.Now of course, €3.07 on a train cancellation won’t be the biggest saving you’ve ever made, but it also frees up the seat for someone else to buy; so it’s considerate and ecological too. Another thing I really like about booking through ČD is that it’s possible to select specific seats even for foreign trains, by typing in the carriage and seat numbers. Although yo

 I bought the pass in first class, I haven't activated it yet, I wanted to book but the TC is denied, should I activate the pass to make the reservation? Thank you

My trip has a transfer in Frankfurt and I am arriving at Frankfurt (M) Flughafen Regionalbf. From there I am making a 15 minute transfer to Frankfurt (M) Flughafen Fernbf. QUESTION... 1) Are these two the same train station? 2) What are the physical addresses to both these stations?Thank you in advance 

I booked several reservations worth 72€ yesterday and got a confirmation email. The money already left my account, however, I am unable to access the e-tickets for the reservations. The reservation overview view says “You currently have no reservations”. Does anyone know what the issue could be or whether I can get my money back? Since the first train is tomorrow lunch, I’d really appreciate a fast reply

Hi,I made a reservation for a train from Nimes to Barcelona on November 20 but was not given the option to opt-out of paper ticket delivery.I provided the address and contact information of my Airbnb host but just received word that he won’t be able to sign for my package upon its delivery. I unfortunately won't be arriving in Monte Carlo until November 18- two days before my scheduled departure on the above train.Given that I've purchased a Eurail mobile pass, can I obtain an electronic version of my seat reservation? I don’t have an address of my own to provide because I’m currently backpacking. I’ve tried getting touch with Eurail customer service via email and visited a help desk in Vienna but no one has been able to help; I’m getting anxious.

Hello I made a réservation for seats for a Milano Genova. I paid but nothing happened. I thought i made a mistake, triés again, paid and still nothing, i didn't get any confirmation email. Whhat will happen if i just take thé train ?

Hello everyone! It's my first time to do an Interrail and I'm a little confused. I need help and hope that someone can help me. I checked the FAQ in the Rail planner app and I found out that it's not possible to go in a first class train if I have a second class Pass. First of all, I had problems to find trains that go to Stockholm or Norway in the interrail website, so at the end I booked a train ticket in the site "www.sj.se". I decided to book a first class ticket because I thought that this was possible, but reading that news now I believe that I made a mistake. Is this true? Please help and thank you in advance.

I am currently planning to use my one remaining inbound/outbound travel day of my mobile Global Pass in the night from thursday to friday this week to travel from Venice to my country of residence Germany.Now I discovered that the available trains have really bad timing: I need to change trains in Munich towards northern Baden-Württemberg and my options are either:Arrive in Munich Hbf from Verona at 22:42 on November 3rd with ECB80 (would require one inbound day on November 3rd).Leave Munich Hbf at 0:01 with the ICE618, for which I can no longer use the inbound day, because it’s already November 4th, so I would need to buy a full price ticket.Or:Arrive in Munich Ost from Salzburg at 0:01 with the NJ468 (would require one inbound day on November 3rd).Then I would need to continue with S-Bahn and ICE, for which I can’t use the inbound day. I’m currently planning to use the first option and purchase a full-price ICE ticket for the rest of my journey in Germany after arriving in Munich.But

Trying to reserve from AMSTERDAM CENTRAAL (Netherlands) to ANVERS-CENTRAL (Belgium) and it won’t let me. Do I have to do multiple booking one go for it to work or? I notice that later dates won’t populate so I am booking it one by one instead of one go, is this an issue? It doesn’t make sense for me to wait for my full trip to populate train rides and they book it in one go.The experience of trying to use the App hasn’t been great either. There isn’t a notification to tell you that train rides are now available, I have to go to the app each day to check and now that I can see the trains available I can’t make a reservation.

I bought a 5 days first class Flexible Eurail Global Pass  via Rail Europe about 7days ago.I was trying to buy eurail intercity tickets after seat reservation ,In my cart , your company ask to me pay 66.64 US dollar But I can't pay that because of your system stopping at " continue to traveler's detail-At this time how can i pay for your seat reservation fees ? 

Hi, my paper tickets for the journey from Montpellier to Madrid did not arrive in the mail. PostNL status indicates that delivery has failed on 21 Oct, after reaching a Switzerland sorting centre, with no further updates thereafter. I contacted swiss post which told me they do not have the location of the item, and I need to tell the sender to raise an enquiry with postNL.  I am waiting for a reply from postNL and Eurail on what to do next.  In the meantime, I was hoping to draw on the advise from the community on what to do. I travel in around 2 weeks time. Unfortunately It's only after facing such problems that I read many comments in the community warning about buying paper tickets. My questions are1. Should I request to cancel and refund my tickets, then quickly book a new one?2. If I book a new ticket, should I do it through eurail again and hope it goes through this time?3. If I'm in switzerland, am I able to visit a swiss ticket office (as mentioned by Rgvborgt in a guide) to bu

Is it possible to go back and look at reservations made months ago.  I made a reservation that due to changes in train schedules no longer worked and I am filing an insurance claim for the amount of it and new reservations

Hi,I am currently trying to reserve 2 tickets between London and Lille for Wednesday. Once I have entered all information and payment details the page refreshes on the same page but no payment has processed and the reservations remain in the basket.I have tried multiple times and get the same result regardless of the time booked. I have also checked the Eurostar site to confirm that there are tickets available.Any help on how to fix this would be appreciated! Thank you!

Hello, I want to travel to Latvia and Estonia this year but no trainstations in those countries can be found in the rail planner app what do I do if I have a mobile pass ? Because I can not add any journeys in those countries

Hello everyone,I'm spontanously planning an Interrail-Trip beginning on Monday, 2nd August. I’m planning to visit Pilsen first and I would like to hopp on the train to Pilsen in Regensburg (Train-ID in the DB App ALX RE25 - departure 10:14). The train is provided by the Länderbahn GmbH which should be part of the Interrail network. However the railplanner App says, that this train is not part of the network. Is this a bug and is there a way, I can take this train?Best wishes

I would like to book trains as per above destinations using EURAIL PASS without Reservation. I have already paid enough for the Tickets itself. Since this is unavoidable, i wouldn’t mind booking the slower regional trains.From Bruges to Paris - which train? I can’t take the fast trains they have reservationsFrom Paris to Strasbourg - which train?  ‘’    ‘’    ‘’From Strasbourge to Zermatt - which train? “”   “” “”

Went today to Montserrat. Please be aware that the they don’t give discount anymore for pass holders.

I know from Searching on here there is no train Patra to Athens.  I know you have to take a bus that is covered by Eurail to Kiato and then the train from there.  My question is about the reservation on the bus.  I can’t seem to make that online.  There is 4 of us looking to go on the morning of Nov 3rd.  Anyone know how I make a reservation for this?

I am preparing myself for travel across Spain to Portugal in the busy Christmas period by looking at the RENFE and Rail Europe apps to judge ticket availability, particularly on the San Sebastian - Madrid route. Just as an example, yesterday RENFE was showing ALL trains for TODAY as FULL whereas Rail Europe was showing availability on ALL trains. Same goes now for tomorrow’s 9.02am train.This baffles me - but the key question is what would the ticket office in San Sebastian be showing now? Would they have a reservation to sell me because in fact the Rail Europe app is showing a truer position than Renfe?Thanks, Scott

Me and my girlfriend are going from Sweden to Italy, with one train change in Münich, Germany. There we need to take an S-train from Münich HBF to Ost, which should be included in our Interrail cards. My question is: do I need to book a seating ticket for this train, or can we just hop on the train with our interrailcards, without any other tickets?
