Train connections & reservations

Why is that?I’m trying to book a ticket from Amsterdam to Paris which is in over 2 ½ Weeks. And Interrail does not allow me to use ANY of the reasonable thalys train times, despite me spending 250€ on this pass.There is still plentiful options avaiable on thalys’s official website – but I would have to spend the full price to make use of it! Plus why would I even consider buying separate tickets if this website brags about their partnerships with thalys and after I spend this much money on a pass that doesn’t serve any use.The fact that this company seriously expects me to spend 140€ on another seperate ticket, making the pass 100% useless is completly ridiculous and I am not recommending this do any of my friends after this trip is over.

I’m having problems making seat reservations for my trip in august, as the web is not accepting the payment once we have gone through the entire process (this is happening to my friends too).Does anyone know how to solve this?Thanks in advance

As of yesterday, all the reservations I tried making on Eurail’s website is not working. Everytime I try to check out it gives an error bug and goes back to the main homepage. Tried with multiple countries & trains. Is this the same for everyone else?It is quite a pain to go to each train website to manually make seat reservations

Can anyone tell me what happens to my seat reservations if I miss the connection.Can I easily transfer it to a later train by talking to someone at the station.I am concerned I don’t have enough time to get from Paris Nord to Paris Lyon (50 minutes is what the Interrail Route Planner did).I think I would like to cancel it and transfer to a later train to give more time. But then I’d have to cancel the reservations which seems tricky. How do I cancel a seat reservation?

Hello, I am trying to make seat reservations through the Eurail online website for 3 routes (Zurich to Milan, Milan to Cannes, Cannes to Paris). It allows me to add all of them to my “My Cart” but when I click on the “Traveler information”, the website glitches and takes me back to the landing page. Please help! Is this a website malfunction? 

Hello,We want to travel with our two dogs true Norway. We made several seatreservations, but at this moment we have to change our tickets because you need special seats were dogs are aloude. Is there someone who knows were you van change this? Greetings from Ilona 

Hello to everyone , I Plan to Travel From Oslo to Stavanger next week. As others already have pointed out, the interrail app doesn't show the connection even though it apparently exists (the Norwegian railway website at least shows it). So I guess I will just add it manually to my pass . I have read where to make the seat reservation , but us it necessary it all? A great thanks

How can I book 6 seat reservations from Barcelona to Paris on the 9.10 train on Tues 4th October using my global passes?  I tried to make seat reservations via the eurail.com website but it says they aren’t available at the end of checkout.  I’ve tried trainline and rail europe but there’s no option to add my global passes so it’s charging me full price which is almost $1k.  It’s all so confusing for this Aussie :). Thanks in advance.

Hey, I couple of days my ordered reservation tickets should have arrived at my home, but they were sent back to the sender. Is there any way to resend them to my home adress? 

I want to book my seats on Eurostar from London to Paris on the afternoon of 28th September for 6 people.  But it charges full price.  How can I book but pay just the seat reservation price?

I planned a journey from Paris to Barcelona for my family of 6 using rail planner app.  As advised I paid for seat reservations on eurorail.com.  Upon checkout I was advised that the tickets could only be posted out and that i needed to supply the address of my accomodation.   This seemed completely ancient to me but I reluctantly proceeded.  Despite the day of travel not being for another month, the accomodation agreed to accept and sign for the tickets when they arrive and hold them for me.  This was inconvenient to organise and I really don’t want to do it for all the places we will be travelling to throughout our trip, not to mention the hassle if something goes amiss.   2 hotels I approached about it said they hadn’t heard of it before.  Am I doing something wrong?  Thanks in advance 

Hi everyone! I was wondering if it is necesaary to print a ticket when you bought an electronic Global Pass. If I booked the seats, I need to print the seats? regards,

Hello,I am on my trip now so this is kind of urgent. I am trying to book train tickets online and due to the apostrophe in my name it will not allow me. The apostrophe was fine on the mobile app, but when I go online to do seat reservations it says “special characters not allowed”.I have tried deleting the apostrophe from my name and using a space, but since my pass is linked to the name with the apostrophe it is unable to be found. In other post the only solution was that the Eurail team changes the name on my account to one without an apostrophe so please can you interact with my post so they are able to see this and fix my account as soon as possible.Since I am already on my trip does anyone have any advice on how to get this solved? (I booked this through a travel agent so I never anticipated having problems) I have already emailed Eurail, but they have not responded. I have been getting kicked off of my trains despite using days from my global pass. I am also a young female travel

I had two seat reservations on the 8th August:Barcelona-Sants → Nimes  Nimes → Marseille St CharBecause all the fast trains were out of order, I had to take another train where no reservation was needed, therefore my seat reservation was “canceled”. I had to take another connection, where I often had to change trains and that's why I missed my next train in Nimes and also the seat reservation.Can I get a refund for those seat reservation? 

How do I make reservation for family in the app. So far I had to do reservation one by one for each family member. But I want to prevent the situation that we get separate seats.

HiI’m trying to travel from Florence to Brindisi in September but can only see the timetable for slower regional trains taking 20 hours +. I know I can do the journey on a fast train in around 7 hours. Are these trains not available to me on my pass, even with a paid for reservation? Or do I need to book this journey directly?Many thanksAnnette

Hi,  It is possible to make a few hours stop on a travel day? And use two connections on one day?Example: La Chaux-de-Fonds (CH) - Bern (CH) 10.02u - 11.07u                Bern (CH) - Utrecht Centraal  15.04 - 23.17u

Hi there I have booked a trip for 5 people. only 3 of them are returning together on the eurostar to London from Paris. How do I edit the passengers for just this reservation? It seems to be assuming all 5 want to come back 

Hello, I recently bought 2 reserved tickets from Wien to Venice but in the mail there wasn’t the tickets, juste the receipt of the payment. Also, in my interrail account there is the reservation but without any document ! I have sent few mails but no one is responding since 7 days now… I must travel in 2 days so it’s stressing me out, please help.

Hello all. This is a boring question - but I just asked for a seat reservation refund from the Interrail site, via my account. I was told I would be refunded £43 and so I went ahead with the refund (albeit £12 less than what I originally paid). However, when I got the confirmation email from Interrail, it read ‘Total Order Amount: £0’ - which worries me somewhat, in that I received no refund when I was under the impression that I would get one. Any help would relieve me somewhat of anxiety! Thank-you.

I have a interrail global pass for one month. How ever a lot of trips give me the sign of “Not available for some travellers” how yo fix this?

Hi there - I’m trying to get a train from Berlin to Warsaw and PKP Intercity is quoting me 50 dollars Canadian , Deutsche Bahn website is quoting me 33 Euros - all of which are expensive… while the App for Eurorail is only saying 6 Euros. It’s the same train  so why the difference? Any advice is welcome. Thanks.  

Hello,I made a reservation for a train tomorrow morning. There was no information for site reservation required and it was impossible to reserve a seat on the website. At the train station the staff told me that I couldn't Takeshi this train. 

Hi all, I am considering purchasing an Inter-rail pass for an upcoming trip to Europe. I have a couple of questions: Is it  possible to select your seat when booking via the Inter-rail/Eurail site  - rather than have the system do this automatically?I suspect it may well depend on the country? The specific train I am interested in is the Paris  - Hendaye TGV.I can see on the French Railway website that there are individual seats available in first class. The question is, can I chose these seats when booking via the interail/Eurail Website? The same question as above but Re the B-Europe site   What is the latest you can reserve seats via the Inter-rail/Eurail site? i read on another thread somebody tried to do this the day before but they were unable to. Any help or answers would be very much appreciated. Cheers

Hi everyone,We are planning soon our return trip to Belgium from Sweden. We start from Uddevalla in Sweden  leaving on the 25th August 2022. The app says that it is advised to make seat reservation between Goteborg C and Copenhagen C (train 1) and between Copenhagen C and Kolding St in Denmark (train 2). However, i can t find the website to make these seats reservations (for train 1 and train 2). On the way from Belgium to Sweden, these trains were really full and since we travel with 2 children we really would like to make seats reservation. Seat reservation in Germany are done and it was easy. I would like to do the same for these 2 trains. Thanks a million for your help.We have a interail pass of 4 days for 4 persons. Cecile  Herve and the kids
