Train connections & reservations

Hello!I'm from Lyon (France) and I would like to travel to Budapest with an interrail global pass. My plan is to travel from Lyon to Paris then from Paris to Budapest then come back (Budapest => Paris => Lyon). I wanted to know if the journey from Lyon to Paris is included in the interrail global pass ? or only the journey from Paris to Budapest ?Thank you

Hello!I have a travel pass for me and my family. But for some reason we cannot make a seat reservation from Kristiansand - Oslo and from Oslo - Bergen and other destinations. Via de app we can see the possible itineraries, but when we go to the website to book (as it is not possible through the app for some reason), I keep receiving this error: “We can't find any trains that match your search. Please change your search and try again.” I have no idea what I am doing wrong, but it is frustrating as we really want to plan our trip.Can someone help me out? 

Hallo,ich will über das Interrail-Reservierungssystem in Norwegen Züge reservieren. Meine Frage ist, ob ich irgendwo bestimmte Plätze auswählen kann (zB Fensterplatz)? Auf den Onlineseiten der Unternehmen kann man leider keine Reservierung buchen. 

Hi,I really hope you can help me. I need to book reservations for my and the 4 other people in my group to get on the 11:04 Eurostar from London St Pancras to Amsterdam Centraal on 28/06/22 and also the NJ468 Nightjet train from Vienna to Paris on 23/07/22. I seem to be unable to book these on the interrail website or on the websites for the individual railway companies and it's showing an error message that it may be fully booked. I have however seen this error message before when this was not the case. How do I find out of they are in fact fully booked and how can I get on those trains? I really need to be on them.

Hi everyone,Me and my friend are doing an interrail this summer. We both have our mobile passes in our apps. While planning, I bought a reservation train ticket for us both (two travellers in the same ticket). Will this ticket be linked to her pass somehow? How should we procceed? Thanks in advance!

Is it necessary that I take the next train at the same spot where I left the last one? Or is it allowed to travel otherwise in the meantime. For example: I travel to Berlin, now I chill some days. Does my next ride has to start in Berlin or is it allowed that my next ride is from Amsterd (because I travelled with a car in the meantime for example). Thanks guys! 

I'm having two problems with my Eurail pass: I’m not able to do a seat reservation in one of my journeys specific the one between Barcelona Sants - Madrid Puerta de Atocha on the 13th June 2022. I have contacted Eurail customer service about this, they explained that seat reservation between Barcelona Sants and Madrid Puerta de Atocha, have to be purchase on person at the station counter. However as seat reservations are recommended to be purchase at least two weeks prior to travel date, as not many spots are available for holders of Eurail pass, I don't have the chance to buy it until the day of my arrival and departure (13 June), when I need to continue my trip coming from Paris same day.I asked a relative living in Paris to come to a TGV station to purchase a reservation seat on my name, for Paris - Barcelona journey. The TGV officer was very helpful and seat reservation purchase was success.However, I asked another relative in Barcelona to do the same at AVE office at Barcelona San

Hello,I have a global mobile pass.I want to book a seat for July: Napoli to Calabriaon the FR tain.When going to ‘check out’ on the interail reservation website: all the sudden 9€ extra to SEND me a paper ticket!!! (Belgium)we choose to travel with ECO awareness and then are obliged to have a paper ticket?I booked another one yesterday, also frecciarossa train and worked fine with PDF seat reservation.can anyone please clarify why this difference? Not cool..ps: tried OBB website, seat reservation not working (anymore?) for Italy it seems

I try to reservate seat for our traject Brussels - Bari en Bari-Brussels but the reservationtool doesn’t work.or the traintimes don’t load  or it says prices aren’t currently available I tried it with two computers and my smartphone, but it never works. 

Hi there!I would like to ask whether the train conncetion of a given day is subject to change. For example, I see in the app that I’d need to add a certain train conncection of a given day/time to my Globalpass. However, can I still travel that same day but in another time in case of delay due to train connection or my plan changes?Thanks a lot! 

just wondering if anyone has any advise on how to book onto a train from Budapest to Zagreb in July as all the seat reservations have sold out and to buy a ticket online seems very difficult due to a changing of countries. any advise would be appreciated. 

Hi,As it seem to be almost impossible to reserve seats in France and Spain, either it is not possible, or it is, or its just sent by post, how much time is needed to reserve in person?For example, if I arrive in Perpignan the 15th June, will I most likely? be able to book reservation on a train from Perpignan to Zaragoza the 17th?(SNCF) I mean, that's almost 2 days from I arrive in Perpignan, till I leave. Before Perpignan, I will be in Strasbourg for one night (14th-15th), if I go to the ticket office there (14th), will I be able to book reservations there? now its 3 days before?  is it not enough time? who are all these people booking up all reservations, in person! all over Europe? :))) Im traveling with a small dog, so its making me a little bit extra stressed over the situation.

Hello All!I hope this reaches you all well :). Two quick but very important questions: How can one reliably get paper tickets (in the case when e-tickets aren’t available) when they do not have an address to receive them (I am not in one place for more than 2-3 nights as a traveller/backpacker)? I’ve seen some suggestions in my searches, but wanted to solidify my understanding of the issue/solutions, because it seems so counter-intuitive to the proposed freedom and flexibility of a Eurail/Interrail pass.  I say 'reliably' because getting paper tickets at train stations as a foreigner seems complicated (e.g., which company or station must I go to, will we be able to converse in the same language effectively?), and more importantly it puts me at risk of trying to book a train too late (e.g., I show up and it's full). Another option I saw recommended: searching through various providers and then calling them. Again, doing this chasing, then maybe waiting on hold, just to get an e-ticket

Hello fellow travellers!I am trying to book the night jet from Zagreb - Split on the 25th of June. I cannot manage to find the prize for the seat reservation or how to book it. Tried with Bahn.de and so on. I looked up previous questions here in the community, and is it correct that this seat reservation can only be made on a Croatian train station? What do you think, should I be worried that the train will be fully booked? Is there any other way for me to secure my seat reservation?Thank you so much for taking your time :)//Sanna

Any way to get a reservation for train from Paris to England on July 10 for 2 travellers? thanks

Hey, me and my friend wants to buy an interrail ticket this summer, and we want to travel from spain to portugal. However when we searched train times from spain to Portugal it said "we cant find any train times that match your search". Does this mean that its not possible to take trains from spain to portugal. And in thata case where do we have to travel from to get to Portugal. We want to travel to the cities Faro, Lisboa and Porto

Hello! Im trying to book a high speed train from paris-barcelona but when i get to the checkout i get paper ticket only delivered by post? And i also can’t check out after writing my post adress details so I'm not sure what to do. I also tried to book reservations on the sncb website but i can't find where to put in interrail pass as a discount. (Me and my friend bought the interrail paper passes)

Good evening, in 2020 I won a paper interrail pass but I couldn't use it due to the covid. Last year I was sent a digital one which I put in the Interrail app. I am trying to make a reservation for a train in France from travel-b and I am asking for the cover pass number. The digital pass does not have this type of code but the paper one of 2020 does. Can I insert the one of 2020? Is it the same pass from 2021 but in paper format? Because otherwise I don't know what code to enter in travel-b

Hello,I’m looking to make a train reservation for two travellers on 12.6 from Barcelona to Paris. Specifically the TGV 9708 at 9:10. However, when I go to make the reservation, they say they will not ship it to me because it will take too long to deliver by post. I tried going on the SNCF page for tickets, but I wasn’t able to find a place to use the Eurail Pass on the website. Any help would be appreciated. I looked at the seewulf post, but it didn’t seem to have anything for the SNCF site. Also, I’m in Germany. Tried going to my local DB station, but they just looked at me blankly and said there was nothing they could do. I also tried calling 0033 18494 3635 (which I think is SNCF) and they said, no the website is wrong, we can’t help you. So, I’m kind of at a loss, do I just show up early day of and try to get a ticket at the train station?

Trying to book trains in Italy in the middle of July (Venezia - La Spezia 16/7 and Genoa - Zürich 21/7) but I just get the following message. It was the same when I tried to book a few days ago. Are we too late?“Prices temporarily unavailableCheck back in a few hours to see prices and book this seat reservation.”

Hey:)We’d like to do seat reservations for Italy but some trains aren’t working.We already tried it on other bookingsites.We’re traveling from august 3rd to august 8th, are we already too late for bookings?Any ideas how to fix the problem? 

In between I came back to Holland (by plane). How does it work when I continue my trip: I check in with my regular ‘train checkin card (ov chip card))  to the border, but how do I find the exact border station and then I probably have to go off the train to check out (in Holland)? Or better to buy a ticket so I don’t have to check out...Biggest change is I go to England. Which station is the border station...Any advice / your experience is welcome. Thank you,

I was trying to find a way to get from Budapest to Greece, but on the app, no train stations appear.I tried to follow the tip from "MartinM" on a previous thread (Q: "Budapest to Bucharest, then the train from Bucharest to Sofia and then take a bus to Saloniki (20-25 euro) and then continue by train to Athens." U.), but no trains show from Budapest to Bucharest.Can someone suggest a route? Should I book this in a different platform?Thanks!

Hi! We have plans to travel from Ljubljana to Split on 16th of June, with the morning train that leaves 8.30, has a connection in Zagreb, and arrives in Split at 21.30. These trains require reservations, but we are unable to make them with mobile/online, where can we make the necessary reservations? Any and all help is appreciated! BrArttu & Jemina

Here is some information about the new night train that SJ will start running from Stockholm to Hamburg Altona on the 1st of September. The information webpage is unfortunately only available in Swedish, but there’s always Google translate to assist.https://www.sj.se/sv/reseinfo/sj-euronight.htmlThe train has seats, couchettes and sleepers. The price for a seat is from 155 SEK, a place in a 6-bed couchette is from 363 SEK and a place in a 4-bed couchette is from 467 SEK. A place in a 2-bed second class sleeper with a breakfast box is from 779 SEK. The price seems to be the same for a non-refundable and a refundable reservation.https://www.sj.se/en/home.html#/ Here you can make the reservation. Select “Interrial or Eurail” as railpass. As Pass Cover Number an I or E followed by any 8 digit combination will do. Right now there is a bug in the system that only gives the Interrail price on the first reservation if you make a return reservation in the same booking. I spotted that today and
