Train connections & reservations

Hey everyone,I‘d like to book a seat on the TGV from Narbonne to Lyon (I have a 1 month global pass). A friend of mine has booked a regular ticket without an Interrail ticket for that train and told me her seat number. Does anybody know if I can select a certain seat so we can sit together? I’ve already tried but all I could select was if I want to have a window or aisle seat. Thanks for your help! :)

Hey,does anybody know, what the meaning of N/A referring to reservations means?Thabks for your answers!

some week ago i booked a seat reservetion for a train that required it, and it had to be sent to my adress.a few days ago I recieved an email that said that my order had been shipped, but today i got an email saying that there was a problem with the shipping and my payment of shipment has been refunded. looking at the tracker of the order it says that it is not even in my country yet.what can i do? and how can i get my tickets on time?thank you.

Hello,I received an email today stating that Thalys was cancelling my train from Brussels to Amsterdam and that I needed to exchange it or request a refund. Of course this is the third leg of a journey that will be starting in Barnsley, UK and I have no housing in Brussels and need to make an exchange to a later Thalys train (or get a refund and take whatever train I can get) — or take a different way to Amsterdam from London so I can still arrive in Amsterdam on the same day as originally planned.I tried calling the help line for Thalys, but the agent told me I have to make the exchange through Eurail, but I can’t find where I can do that on the website, and the help pages aren’t of any use.How do I make this exchange? A bit panicked, especially after living through the UK rail strikes! This journey has been a major disaster. The Global Pass needs more mobile ability if we’re supposed to book ahead when we’re not in a train station. But then can only rectify issues inside a train stat

HiI have Eurail global pass for 33 countries but i did not find the booking for the following: 1) BRATISLAVA HLAVNA STANICA (Slovakia) to STRBSKE PLESO (Slovakia) (24-07-2022)2) KRAKOW GLOWNY (Poland) to WARSZAWA CENTRALNA (Poland) 30-07-2022I am getting following message:Prices unavailableNo price results were found for this connection. It is possible that all pass holder seats are sold out. Please try searching for another connection or check 'More information' and try other ways to book this seat reservation. If no pass holder seats are available anymore you need to buy a separate full fare ticket to board. Any one please help me in this booking. Is there any other alternate transport available using this pass. RegardsAbdul Qayyum  

Trying to book through b-europe because it won’t let me through Eurail. Literally no train options come up even though they did a week ago? The train isn’t sold out because going through b-europe the normal way (not the pass fare way) shows they are still available. Very frustrated because my only other option is to book in person, two days before we are set to leave Amsterdam.

I am attempting to book Stockholm to Copenhagen on 7/2/22 for 3 persons. None of the trains have reservations available. I purchased Eurail global passes. The same for Brussels to Paris. Do I need seat reservations?

does anyone know where I can book the EN 463 (night jet) from Munich to Budapest? I can only find the connection Munich-Vienna. The train is displayed everywhere, but there are no booking options.If the train is not running at the moment, is there an alternative to get from Germany to Budapest by night train?Thank you

I have a global mobile pass and I have booked the first train from Utrecht (Netherlands) to Milan in the Rail Planner app. Do I make a seat reservation on the ÖBB website/app? And I'm travelling together with someone else. Can I book the seat reservation for them too? Do I just fill in our names, buy the reservation and show it together with our Interrail Ticket of do I need to link them somehow?  I hope someone knows the answer :) Thankyou!

I now realise that Eurostar only give a certain number of reservations to Eurail users on their services.  Anyone any idea how many per train, or does it depend on the route/date/time of service?

Hi,I’m planning to use my Global Interrail pass to go from Brussels (Bruxelles-Midi/Brussel-Zuid) to London (London St Pancras International) with Eurostar (12th of July). When I went to https://www.b-europe.com/EN to make a seat reservation it says, under the title “Travel Conditions”, that “Traveler must be in possession of a valid Interrail Global Pass or Eurail Global Pass, which covers at least the country of departure and arrival. The fare is valid for a traveler in possession of an Interrail Global Pass or Eurail Global Pass, if part of the Eurostar journey takes place in the traveler's country of residence. Only holders of a 1st class pass are allowed to travel in 1st class Standard Premier”. My English might be letting me down here, but does this mean that this reservation isn’t valid for me since I am from Sweden? If not, I could make the same reservation from interrail.eu for only 2 euros more, but is it certain that that one is valid for me? Thanks in advance,Herman

Hi,I tried booking my seat reservation for my train to Brussels from London on Saturday, After booking it I received an email from eurail with subject ‘Something went wrong with your reservation’. My payment has gone through in which they described in this email saying they will rebook for me or offer a refund. I replied asking eurail to rebook for me but haven’t heard anything back. I tried to book it again myself via eurail website but it says that the prices are currently unavailable. Through eurostar I also tried to book a reservation for the same train but was unsuccessful also as I don’t have a paper pass and they won’t accept digital. Is anyone else having a similar issue? I don’t know what to do as my train is this weekend. Thank you! :)

Hey everybodyI have some problems booking a seat reservation on the TGV from Cannes to Toulon and then from Nimes to Barcelona, on Aug 2nd.In the first one, I tried via https://travel.b-europe.com/Eurail-GE/en/booking-tgv#TravelWish, but I do not have a pass cover number, so I cannot make the booking.in the second case, I cannot book in the interrail App. Is there another way?Thanks so much!

Hi,I have been in the process of planning a trip that starts in Athens, Greece and ends in Vienna, Austria.Originally, the plan was to go:Athens, Greece Thessaloniki, Greece Sofia, Bulgaria Belgrade, Serbia Zagreb, Croatia Rijeka, Croatia Vienna, AustriaHowever, I am not sure if there are any trains that go between the countries (Greece - Bulgaria, Bulgaria - Serbia and Serbia - Croatia). Does anyone know if this is still the case?Thank you,balcantravellerP.S. Yes, I realised the difference between Baltic and Balkan but I can’t change my username nor the topic title

I have a Global Interrail pass that I bought from Interrail.se (the Swedish version of the site). On their page, it says that seat reservations can be made from Trainplanet.com. However, there are trains that aren’t available there, but are available on Interrail.eu (for example the Eurostar from Brussels to London). Can I make the seat reservation from Interrail.eu and combine it with my Interrail pass bought on Interrail.se?Thanks in advance,Herman

I have had an email saying that my Eurostar from St Pancras to Brussels on train 9132 has been cancelled. This was a reservation for 7 people so it has cost us a lot. Eurostar tells me to seek a refund through where I booked it yet the Interrail site is having none of it and says it is non-refundable. Their support are yet to get back to me after contacting them a week ago and apologising that they’re busy.It would be great if they could clear up what is happening with cancelled Eurostar trains. I also don’t want the reservation using up a travel day as it will limit us the rest of the trip.Will Interrail refund me?

Hello! Me and my friend are Interrailing and are currently in Paris. On Thursday we're continuing our trip to Annecy and have been trying to book this since a seat reservation is required. However we cannot seem to do it and I've seen a lot of other people with the same problem. Does anyone know of an alternative way to book?  Thanks in advance,Felicia 

Hello, my name is Candela Martínez. Today I bought my global pass for 7 days in one month but now the web page won´t let me buy the reservation for the trip I want. It is super important I book the train I want because I have a flight after that train that I can't miss.  The problem is that I was about to buy the reservation for the train from London St Pancrass 5:30am to Paris 9:20 and then the page said there was an error and now it says that prices are unavailable and that I have to try later. Please I need help with this. This pass is the only reason I took a 7 day pass and also, my plane ticket depends on it. Thank you

I want to go from Helsinki to Tallinn (then to Krakow), but I can’t see Tallinn on the app.How is that possible?Another questionShould I visit Baltic countries on train or go directly in Poland with a ferry?

Hi I have seat reservations on Paris nord- Amsterdam centraal  at 1 June 8:25-11:44 the train number on my seat reservation (train no: 9315) doesn't match the train number in the railplanner app though (train no.  9415) the exact same departure time. Can I still add this journey to my pass and the ticket will be valid?

Hello!I want to make a seat reservation for train from Barcelona to Valence. I tried it through interrail website and it says that is has to be delivered to me by post and also that it would´t arrive on time (but my travel is in august and now is june, so i don´t get why it would take so long to deliver it). I know it has to be on paper and not online, but i don´t know what to do as long as i don´t want to buy it that day at the station because i´m scared it would be sold out. Isn´t there any way shipping could be faster? I also tried making the reservation on SNCF website, but there is no way how to do that there if i understant it correctly. Thank you for any help!

I bought Eurail passes for me and my daughter, but the trains require seat reservations which I am not able to book! (I tried all the hacks suggested on this forum.)The train TGV 6031 I am hoping for, leaves Gare de Lyon on July XX at 8:43 am and arrives Montpellier St Roch at 12:14.The human phone agent said that the 8:43 train was totally booked. So, he proposed other trains that did have seats available 7:12pm arrive 10:42 pmor 5:12 pm arrive 8:41 pm.But I was unable to book those online either.So I could theoretically book those over the phone - but they accept only an AMEX card from Americans- -which I don't have! I could buy in-person at the Gare - but, well, there's this problem of the Atlantic Ocean.Anyway - if you know any way to buy a seat reservation, please let me know.Un peu ridicule. 

Can i book the trains before activating the pass? I start from Italy, i have to go germany / czech republic / slovakia / Austria and back to Italy, where should you book? Thanks

Kan ik eerst een deel van mijn reis (route b.v. Brussel midi-London st Pancras) boeken en reserveren om daarna het begin van mijn reis en het slot (geen reservering nodig) te boeken? Komt dit dan vanzelf op volgorde op mijn reis van die dag te staan?

I have Eurail Global Pass and I am trying to book seats for Paris-Barcelona for 27th July 2022 in 1st Class for (1010-1654) but it says on the Eurail website that it will be a "Paper Ticket" which will be delivered to my address. I will not be able to receive the Paper Ticket in time due to travelling. The seats will be Sold by the time I reach Europe so booking at a local station is not an option.  is there any other way to get the ticket like on Email? What to do?
