Train connections & reservations

I am planning on using my eurail pass for some trains within sweden, when I check the eurail planning app it says that seat reservations for my journey are around 3 euros. When I check the SJ website and enter my pass reference, it says the ticket is 50 euros. Any ideas on whats going on here? 

I’m interrailing in May-June time and wasn’t planning on booking reservations when they’re not required. On the rail planner app it says the train times, for example Berlin- Brussels, 6:46am-13:26pm, does this mean that the train leaves the station at 6:46 or arrives at the station at that time. How long before setting off do the trains get to the station, how far in advance should I get there to ensure I get on?  Also, if I haven’t reserved a seat, is there a limit to the amount of people that the train allows (I assume I will be standing which is fine). Will the train just fill up or is there a maximum amount of passengers allowed. I don’t want to not be able to miss/not get on as there’s a big gap between train times. 

Hi!We were planning to travel around Poland soon but somehow it seems impossible to make seat reservations in advance. The Interrail app says its not possible on every connection we planned (for example EC 59 Frankfurt(Oder)-Gdansk Glowny dep. 1345 on may 10), the PKP-website only lets us book reservations including the full fare and also DB cant make reservations online.Does anyone have a recommendation on how we should do this? And if we would book reservations on the train station before departure, aren't we way to late to be guaranteed a seat? 

how do I book a reservation on each of the 3 legs of the golden pass. From lucern to montreux 

I just scheduled our very first train ticket from Switzerland to Germany with our 1st class pass and there are no specific seat assignments. Do we just look for first class and take a seat? How do you know if that seat does not belong to someone. Just little nervous and traveling in little more then 2 weeks. So exiting!!! Thank you in advance

Hello ! I want to go to Italy but is the train between Paris and Roma included in the pass ? Or i have to pay another train ? Thank you for your help 😉

Hello.I’m traveling through Europe and Italy is one of my destinations. I’m vaccinated but the one that I have is not official in EU. Also is impossible to get the Green Pass here in my country. I have an international vaccine card, but I don’t know if it will allow me to enter every train. Is something related to COVID needed in order to enter the trains or I just have to show my Eurail Pass?thanks for your time.

Hi, I’ve bought the 7 day pass in one month 1st class and have been looking to book my reservations. So far I will only need to pay for Paris to Munich. I will not be prebooking the seats that already say your ready to board, prebook seat is not required only if you want to. I cannot find a seat for Prague to Krakow- and krakow to Berlin. It is saying from 0€ but seat reservations required. I am not travelling till the end of July - 12 weeks away but would like to be organised and have them all booked. Do you know if the seats are just all booked and you cannot book them or are they not released yet?  thank you

Hello!I'm starting my Interrail-adventure next week and my first train will be from St. Pölten to Zürich. I want to catch the train as early as possible, because I plan on travelling from Zurich to Milan on the same day, so I only use one travel-day. My question is the following: the train departs on the 3rd of May at 20:40 from Budapest and arrives in St. Pölten at 23:59 (still May 3rd) with the departure at 00:01 on the 4th of May.Will this cost me one or two travel days, as I'll be boarding the train right on the edge of those two days.Which time counts? The departure time or the time of arrival? Thank you in advance,David

Hi Eurail CommunityIf for example I missed the trip that I added to my Global Pass, noting that this said added trips to my Global Pass has already a ticket, can I use this same ticket on the next train without having to browse for next train time schedule, saving next train tome schedule to my journey and the adding this to my Global pass to obtain a new ticket? what will happen to the first ticket that I missed — is this forfeited?thanks  

We have global pass and cannot seem to reserve any trains from Amsterdam to Berlin - always shows the error one leg is not available whether its a connection or the direct train, it can’t be reserved. It takes me all the way to payment and then suddenly the error appears. We have mobile passes, I tried booking on b-europe and it says we need some pass cover number which is only a paper ticket.Same issue when trying to book from Prague to Salzburg, one leg cannot be booked, other can. Tried to go on m.cd’s website and it says “The booking period for this reservation has not yet begun or has already expired.”Can someone please help? Its so difficult to make multiple reservation with constant error messages.

I’ve been trying to book seat reservations from London to paris, paris to nice, nice to Bordeaux and Bordeaux back to London and it says every possible train is booked up for any of those routes on the days I want or around those dates, I’ve tried interrail.eu and I’ve tried the Belgium railways website and I’ve emailed and I’ve rang up and they just said book on the day when you get to the station and put the phone down?? This seems so risky!!  I’m going in just over a month and I’m completely stuck. Ive also Been onto the Eurostar website to try and book the London to paris route but I can’t seem to attach my interrail pass so I don’t pay full price?? I’ve Nearly given up with the whole thing tbh -someone Help please!!

Hi there, I am doing a little research on whether I want to buy a Global pass with Interrail and I need some help from experienced travellers here. My travel plans are basically flexible travel whenever I want to go somewhere I hop on the train. I want to go towards the south of France and Spain first, probably going into Portugal at some stage, move back up through Switzerland and Italy, Germany etc.  Now, I am looking at a slow travel plan, so go from Amsterdam to Paris, from Paris to Lyon etc etc. BUT, If I look up the train from Amsterdam to Paris on this website I get: We can't find any trains that match your search. Please change your search and try again.If I look it up on any other booking website such as Omio, there definitely is a train available..?  Then I look in the Interrail App if I can find trains (mind you, I do not have a pass added yet) and they state that there are trains but the seat reservation is FROM €35!? Per person? that seems insanely pricey after spending 73

Hello. If we are trying to get from Greece to Albania, does the global pass cover the bus expenses? Thank you so much :)

Hi!!I have two questions:1. How can I know if all possible trains for this summer have been published on the web? I´m trying to find a train that suits me but I haven´t managed to find it yet. Can trains still be published 1 month in advance or something like that? 2. We´re looking for a train that takes us from Amsterdam to Berlin, travelling through the night, but the ideal train for us doesn't allow reservations. On the website we can see that sometimes it says that the train might be full, but on the information the train is marked as "No reservation needed". Does that mean that we can just hop into the train without any reservation? As it is a night train we would like to have seats to have some rest, how can we make the reservation? I´ve heard that the day of our arrival to the station we might have the possibility to book some tickets. Thank you in advance for your help :)

Hello.How can I reserve a seat in Eurostar with the Eurail Pass discount? I know that it can be done in Eurail website and b-europe, but for some reason the are no trains for May 30th in any of these sites. Why there are trains all May but just that day the tickets are sold out? Eurostar have trains for that day but I don’t know where to use the code.Thanks for your time.

Hi all; I just wanted to check whether there is any issue with having unconnected journeys on your pass e.g train from Nice to Genoa, and then next journey Milan to Venice? Between Genoa and Milan we might get a different form of transport to save travel days. Will that be an issue? also does it matter if you have whole country gaps? E.g. travel days get you to Greece then your next train is in Spain (after flying)?

Hi!I plan to go on an interrail trip to the Balkans in September. I would like to visit Belgrade - is there any chance to get there by train from Budapest? And does the train from Belgrade to Sofia run? (sofia is my next direction). Thank you in advance for your answer. 

Hello, I need to book 2 adult tickets for seat reservations from Barcelona Santa - Madrid Atocha Cercanias for the 28th April. It says on the interrail app that it’s book in the station only. Is there any possibility that it can be booked online with any other site? 

Sorry if this is a silly question.  We are hoping to Inter rail this summer as a family of four - the reservation fee is showing as 46 euros for the Paris to Barcelona overnighter but it doesn’t specify if that is per person or not.  Just trying to make sure we have all the costs tallied before we proceed- thanks!

I am trying to go from Amsterdam to Berlin and do it overnight w a friend, we are going to travel to Frankfurt first. When booking a seat reservation can you not pick your seat on EUrail website? If not, how do you go about picking your seat together on trains that require a reservation?I have the mobile global flexi pass if that helps. 

Hello. We have a global pass and we are trying to travel from Budapest to Belgrade in order to get to Athens. However, we cant find in the app a train from budapest to belgrade. What can be happening? Does the global pass cover this area?  Thanks for your help and pardon me for my english (not native tongue, we are from Spain) 

Is it still to early? (Going 30th May...)I have planned all the trips, paid for the interrail pass and used the my rail planner to plan which trains to book. It passed me onto a different website to book and says for any and all trains for where we are going, no matter the time or day cant be booked. I am getting worried as its getting closer and has been saying this for a while now. This is the message for every single train and there are no trains when I have searched no reservations needed.‘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.’

Hi guys, how can I book the night train from Napoli Centrale to Palermo Centrale the cheapest way? We want to take the night train at the 7th of June and on the interrail reservation website it is so expensive to make a reservation for this train. We have a one country pass for italy. Do you have any tips on how to do it cheaper?  Thanks!!
