Train connections & reservations

Hello,I am a first time interrailer with a young family and we are keen to do a night train. We are travelling in October and are looking at the night train between Nice (or Marseille) going to Paris on Wednesday 22nd October but I only seem to get results for the Thursday. Do they only run on certain days? 

The bots couldn’t help me so I’m hoping the community can. I’m on the Eurail site ordering a seat reservation for a Narbonne to Madrid train which requires the seat reservation to be mailed to me,  At checkout I selected my state from the drop down menu, but then on the travelers details page which shows the mailing address the state is not appearing.  Instead there is the number 16 where the state should be.  I tried going back and reentering my mailing address several times but it keeps replacing my state with the number 16 on the travelers details section for mailing. I am hoping someone can assure me that this is normal for states in mailing addresses to be replaced by a two digit number under traveler details for seat reservations. Thank you in advance for your help. I’ll await a response before completing the transaction.

This is my first year to use the interrail global ticket with my family. We want to travel from Kolding to Ringkoebing. In this connection, the bus is part of the trip.  Do I have to pay extra for the bus? 

We purchased EURail Passes and went online to purchase our seat reservations for our Train from Strasbourg to Paris.  We click on the train we want that departs at 8:19 the next screen shows a departure time 12:19 with a different train.  When I enter information each step the time switches between 8:19 and 12:19 with the final screen where you purchase showing 12:19.  Why does the time and train switch back and forth.  I tried different times and it seems to do the same thing with all the times.We live on the east coast of North Carolina and do not know if the time difference is an issue.Any help that can be provided is appreciated. 

Hello Community, My friend and i, we want to book a train from Kopenhagen to Stockholm for today at 14:19. But it dont work, it says: one leg of your jorney could not be booked. Can somebody help us? We alread booked your hostel. Thank you  Max 

Hello Eurailers! I’m trying to purchase required seat reservations. I fill in all info and tickets are added to my cart. When I checkout, fill in all info, the next step is “Continue to traveler details”. This either takes me home page & all data is lost OR a blank page comes up! Any advice? 

I’m am trying to book the overnight train from Budapest to krakow. When doing it on the pol rail website the only options it is giving me is to collect the tickets in Poland or get them shipped. However I am already travelling and am booking the train for 3 nights time. I have tried to ask at the train station of the country I am currently in but they was unable to do it. Could anyone advice how to book this please by getting an e ticket maybe.

Does anyone know if there is an error in the interrail reservation booking system right now? I've been trying to buy my reservations (yes, unfortunately late) for Essen (Germany) to Barcelona and back in July since yesterday. I have also found connections, but in the purchase process I can't click on the button to proceed to payment.I am very very frustrated and even considering flying!

Hello, im going on my first interrail trip with my partner but when it comes to reserving i try and add a traveler and it says the name or pass are wrong, i have tried on both of our passes to add the other and still the same problem and i have checked it's all written exactly the same as the confirmation email, i don't know if anyone else has has this issue and if so can you help me please? 

How do I change the date of my train reservation?

hey! I try my best to book the train today at 17.17 from Copenhagen central station to Hamburg central station. but the train does not show in the app, what should I do? It is an IC train so I should be able to take it. How do I make sure I have a valid ticket

Hi, I want to travel from Saarbrücken to Mannheim and the interrail app suggests TGV9551 at 10:58 but does not say it requires reservations. Is this true?? I thought all TGV travel needed reservations? Is it because it's completely within Germany that it doesn't? Thanks,Q  

Hi guys, I won an Interrail Pass this spring and I have already planned my trip for late August. I bought my seat reservations but one of the tickets hasn't arrived and the Eurail team wrote me that it can't be reshipped due to the lack of time. I can't find any information about the refund of a single ticket, whilst having the possibility to use the other ones I have purchased. Have you ever had a similar experience? Could you help me?

If I choose to travel to a place where I don't need to a reservation seta, will I not receive a QR code? just on time? how does it work, you only receive the QR code if you pay for the reservation and if you don't pay you have to wait to see if there will be any empty accents?

We are planning to go from Leeds to Gatwick on Aug. 19. It’s not to catch a flight, but stay at a hotel there that night.I know the strike days planned are the 18th and 20th, but does anyone know whether I should expect issues on the 19th?We can change plans and go closer to south of London if needed, but would prefer to leave the Leeds area on the 19th if possible.Thank you very much.

Hi, I wondering if anyone could help me with the refund rules for a seat reservation Milano-Paris made through the Interrail portal. On the ticket it states that the ticket is refundable up to 30 minutes before departure. If I cancel the ticket through the Interrail portal, will I be refunded the full amount? Thanks!  

Hello, is there no posibility to call Interrail by phone? I booked a ticket and now there a no seats left for my journey to France. Thanks!

Dear All,I have a Global Interrail Pass, Poland is my country of residence and I am trying to book a seat on a Warsaw-Berlin train, PKP Intercity does not allow making that reservation online (it would for a domestic connection, but not international), so I tried to use the Interrail booking system. It does not seem to work: the reservation prices don't show the places are supposedly/possibly sold out, but that doesn't seem true, because sometimes prices do show, on the very same trains. But even then I can't do the booking, because the only option the system knows is to send it to me via paper mail, and when I fill in the address, I am told it is too late and it wouldn't reach me on time. Is this really the only option? Can't I just have the reservation sent in printable electronic form?

I’m travelling at the start of September from bar, Montenegro, and was wondering if anyone had visited Belgrade recently. Are there any trains out of Belgrade that go towards Central Europe. I think my only option is a direct bus to Budapest. (Or going through Croatia from Montenegro, although really wanted to visit Serbia)  Thank you 

Hi, we are planning to travel from Brussels to Paris (13.08.2022 / 7.13 pm) with Thalys and called the customer service for seat reservations. But, I just realised that they gave us 1st class seat and now I can not call them again. Anyone has the same experience? How did it go? I saw a post that someone can still board the train but need to pay the differences. However, I wonder how much the differences will be?  Any prompt response or suggestion will be very much appreciated since the travel date is coming soon and we will be travelling with a baby.  Thanks all and have a good day! 

I am taking the Eurostar tomorrow - From Brussels to London with connections up from Germany using two ICE trains. I know there have been many cancellations and problems with these ICE trains recently, especially between Frankfurt and Brussels. The one I need to take was cancelled today for sure!There is an alternate route (via Aachen and Welkenraedt) which I will take if there are problems. With this though it is likely I will miss my reserved Eurostar. I have 2 questions!What is the policy for missed connections onto Eurostar? If the ICE trains are delayed / cancelled, will Eurostar put my on next available train, even if travelling with Eurail/Interrail? If so, how do I prove that I was intending to take these trains?! With a “normal” ticket, this is easy to show. But with a mobile Eurail ticket I will have to completely remove the affected trains from my planner / ticket in order to add the new (later) trains that I must take. Thanks! 

I booked an Interrail Poland Pass for my trip from Wiesbaden to Sedzilaw with my wife and the recommended train connection to do so is to take the ICE1557 at 8:26 am on the 15th August 22 and to drive to Dresden-Neustadt.The Pass however won't allow me to book the ICE to Dresden-Neustadt. The reason for this is according to the app that my bought Interrail Poland Pass is not valid in some countries.I used once the same Interrail Poland Pass and it worked out for me because of the "Incoming and Outcoming" guarantee. What can I do? 

I’m unable to make seats reservations even if there is still place in the train. 

Hey all! We’re travelling next Wednesday 17th august from Barcelona to Spain and saw that we can’t book the reservation online. There are multiple trains a day going through this route so I’m a bit confused why we can’t , can anyone give guidance? Should we wait to get to Barcelona and book at the station? Thanks so much in advance! 

Hi! I was able to catch a train two hours prior to my reservation. This happend since that train had some delay, so I could make the transfer.It's a train with recommended reservation. But since I'm already traveling, I can't find the train in the system. What the best way to be assured of a seat?Already tried booking from a station later on the traject... Thanks!
