Train connections & reservations

I need to book seat reservation for 2 person travelling from Lyon to Paris on 19Jun22 on the 534PM train, can someone tell me if there are still seats available for Eurail pass holders? I want to be sure before proceeding to buy the Eurail pass. Thank you!  

I’m trying to book seat reservations for our global Eurail pass and cannot find the train I’m trying to book on the website. There seem to be no trains departing from Brussels midi station.  This is so frustrating. Am I doing something wrong? 

Hi, I’m going to do an internal next week and I’m trying to book a seat reservation from Nîmes to Barcelona on the website. But I can’t finish the reservation because it says that can’t deliver, but I tried many different countries and it always says that. Can someone help me?

I want to book a train from Paris to Bruges, and it tells me that I have to connect with another train, however it only indicates 5min for the change if the change can be made in 5min

Hello community,I recently purchased an Interrail Global Pass in order to travel to France and Spain next week. My country of residence is Germany.  I’m planning to travel from Strasbourg to Barcelona on Wednesday. I have to book two reservations for that tour: One for Strasbourg-Lyon (1) and one for Lyon-Barcelona (2). When I click “How and when to book” in the app it brings me to the “Seat reservations” screen where it only says: “Book at major train stations”  What does that mean? I actually want to book my reservation right now in order to have a smooth travel without any hassle. The exact same message applies for my tour from Barcelona to Paris on Friday and for the tour from Paris to Berlin the day after.May you please advise how to handle that? My goal is to get my reservations done right now.

How do I book tickets if the app doesn’t work?  Can I use the pass in a railway station ? 

I need to book the tickets from Rome to Salerno and from Salerno to Naples for June 13 and 17 respectively. They don't show up in your app yet. I sent you multiple emails and I have no answer yet. You incorrectly informed me that I could buy them through Italiarail, a service that they don´t provided since 2021. The schedules are already available in other providers apps but not in your app. I bought the eurail pass to simplify my trip and I can't finish buying hotels and flights because you don't update the app. It is a month and a half left to my trip and you haven't charged the trips yet. I need an answer and solution!

I have booked a Eurostar trip St Pancras to Lille and paid the seat reservation supplement but I other than a payment confirmation I cannot find details of the seat reservation? 

I received my seat reservations for the trip in Italy ( 8 pers), but several are missing and others are 3 or 5 times included. What can I do?

We are planning to do a Rail tour of Europe starting in June 2023 from the UK.Even though our plan is to travel first class where possible it still works out slightly cheaper to use the Interrail pass.My question is how do you reserve seats on High speed/Night trains. Quite a few of the high speed trains don’t seem to show on the Interrail planner for some reason. Do you have to go on each train company’s website to reserve seats ? This would be a logistical nightmare.For example we plan to Travel from Geneva to Florence (via Milan) on the High speed network (Travel time 6hr 25 mins) but these trains don’t show on the Interrail planner.It’s all quite baffling….I’m beginning to wonder if it will be easier just to book the trains ourselves and not use the Interrail pass after all.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I’m trying to book on the 12:22 from Paris to Zurich on the 4th July 2022, on the interrail site it says “Reservation Unavailable”, but on the TGV/SNCF website it states there are seats available to book.  Any idea why I can’t reserve the seats?  If I bought tickets through TGV direct could I be reimbursed the ticket price? 

I can not get up the two train rides I have made for my trip! The app is glitchy and sometimes they switch and show a different train ride than the one I just saw. How am I supposed to get the tickets if it keeps being this way? I am on iphone. 

Hello, me and my friend are trying to reserve seats for the Amsterdam Centraal - Hamburg HBF at 9:10am -2:14pm.

We have reservations to stay the 2 nights in hamburg        

Hello,We are a group of 9 people and we have the interrail pass (2 adults and 7 young people. This summer we want to make the trip and we have to reserve seats on 4 trains:- Barcelona to Lyon- Brussels to London- London to Paris- Lyon to BarcelonaWe want to buy the reservation of all the seats together since we are from a scout group.How do I do it? because on the web it won't let me process it and the Rail Planer application tells me that I'm not registered.Thanks.

Hello, At this moment I was supposed to be on my way to Copenhagen, but due to technical failure at the Dutch railways, I never even made it past Amsterdam. I would like to know how to proceed from here.Attempts to reach out to support while still on the rail failed, as no one could give me any information  about an alternative way to reach Germany so I could continue my travel by train from there.So I would like to cancel my trip from today, as I am unable to finish it, and try again tomorrow. In addition I would like to know how I will be compensated for the inconvenience, now I will have to cancel meetings I had planned for tomorrow.Kind regards,Anna

Hi all, I’m trying to book reservations for traveling from Marseille to Sable (Or Sable-sur-Sartre) on April 24 using my Interrail Global Pass. The Interrail website shows availability in multiple trains, but when I log in it says “SEAT RESERVATIONS UNAVAILABLE” for all the trains… I also checked on https://travel.b-europe.com/ and the prices are more expensive and there is a limited amount of trains (just 2! And I checked on other websites to check if places are available on that day and there are for a lot of trains!).I will be landing in Marseille on April 19, so I guess I could go to the train station to get my ticket but I am scared that there won’t be any places left because it is peak season… Do you think it would be worth it?Also, I have the same problem for my train from Sable to Paris, except that there is only 2 days between the time I arrive and the time I leave so I am just afraid that there won’t be any seats anymore. I decided to get the interrail pass because it looked

Hi,I have purchased a eurail global pass. Today I tried to reserve a seat for a train ride on June-2022. I could see the the train ride in the self-reservation page in https://www.eurail.com/en/book-reservations#/. Also I tried to search for the same train ride in the Rail Planner mobile app. However, the mobile app does not return the specific train ride. I tested in both android and apple devices. Has anyone see the inconsistency between the search results between the Rail Planner mobile app and the self-reservation page in https://www.eurail.com/en/book-reservations#/ ?

Hi there,I bought 2 One Country Passes for France for my girlfriend and I. In the Rail Planner app I could activate the pass for our journey from Lausanne (CH) to Bordeaux (FR) meaning it is valid for this route (1. screenshot). However, when I try to book our (mandatory!) seat reservations on the interrail website, it says that our passes are somehow not valid on the first train but only on the second (2. screenshot)This is really frustraiting and I really hope that someone can help me out.1:2: 

I’m trying to use the rail planner app to reserve tickets with a mobile pass and in most cases it says that I can only book these in person. Does this mean as soon as I get to Europe (my stop will be Munich), I have to go to a ticket office and reserve the tickets there and hope they have some free?

Dear sir or madam,Hi my name is Jihyun Gong, i just purchase a eurail pass with my friend.We made a plan with rail planner app delightly, but some issues we faced.First, after add some schedule list in ‘my trip’, and turn on yellow slice button, and we didn’t get confirm email.And we found some notice  ‘ seat reservations required’. But when we click that schedule, we couldn’t find to pay.So we entered a eurail website with my computer, and added my schedules, and cart some schedule for pay. But some schedule, like paris to venice ticket, couldn’t pay directly. So I enter another site to get a seat reservation, but that price was different with eurail pass’s price. We have a mobile ticket, no paper. And our journey will start 15th, april. So we don’t have a time to get eurail pass by paper. please don’t hesitate to contact me, we are waiting for you.  Sincerly,  Jihyun Gong ps, just in case, do you have a korean representative? because of my english..

Hi, would anyone know information about getting on the train from Gard Du Nord to Bruxelles? Do you present your ticket before boarding or onboard? We can’t find anyone with information for Interrail or travel at all. Some help would be great

Dear community,I have an urgent question. I read that it is possible to travel spontaneously with interrail. I bought a pass and want to travel from Munich to Cambridge tomorrow and from Cambridge to Vannes on sunday. THe planner showed several connections. But the reservation tool not. There is actually no bookable connection as it seems for both journeys.How can I realize my travel plans? Is the reservation tool not connected to the planner? (WHY???)Thank you for your help.

Hello  I just bought my first interrrail ticket and want to book a tgv from Brussels to Marseille. According to the interrrail platform it was indicated that the TGV line should be taken for this route but that additional fees will be charged for booking a place. Ok. But no way to book the tickets or get information from scnf (I called there for more than an hour to get the specialist that does not know about it and tells me to go onside to a French station to ask the question... Well I do not live in France) or sncb (the indicated phone number to ask the question for international transport is not working...) if I buy FOR SURE the tickets on Day of departure at the trainstation…So here is my question : did someone else experience this and how did you solve the issue?Because if I have to pay a separate ticket for a tgv then I have been confused by the interrrail plateform and I cannot use my Global Pass... 

If I look Interrail Rail Planner September time tables and seat reservations for Strasbourg-Bayonne (direct connections or via Paris) I can see trains that do not exist at sncf-connect or bahn.com. I can not believe that  seat reservations for interrail are possible before normal tickets are available.What is the source for up-to-date September time tables in France? 

First time with Interrail and planning.20 minutes transfertime in Basel30 minutes transfertime in ZurichNo need to get nervous or do we need more time?
