Train connections & reservations

Good morning,I’ve been trying to make a reservation on the night train from Krakow to Budapest for August 27th-28th nights. However, I keep getting problems. When trying through cd.cz I got an error and contacted them, their answer was to get in touch with pkp, but pkp isn’t answering my emails. Moreover, I’m not able to buy through their website since it seems to be compulsory to buy this tickets with their “super offer”. This doesn’t enable me to untick a box and the following message is shown: “Pilot sales are underway. Currently, only Super Promo International tickets may be purchased for this e-IC route, provided that promotional tickets are available. Their availability depends on the purchase date and the amount of promotional tickets used.” Thus, I cannot select Interrail pass. Only other possible options I’ve come up with are booking it through Hungarian Railways (mav), but it charges 67€ for just a seat (no option for couchettes), making no interrail discount even when adding

Hola, necesito ir desde Tallin a Riga con el global pass. El problema es que no me deja planear la ruta. Qué puedo hacer? Muchas gracias 

basically my question is if I can get into a train that, let’s say, leaves at 17.00h even though I made a seat reservation for that same train but a few minutes later, for instance, 17.35h. my friends and I are booking seats and we are trying to leave time gaps between the different trains we are catching in prevision of something going wrong. but we wondered: if nothing went wrong and we were able to catch and earlier train than the one we booked, if it would be legal to get it. thaaanks

Next month, I’m planning to travel on trains from Frankfurt to Amsterdam, and then from Amsterdam to Brussels. Both the services I wish to travel on seem to require an additional supplement to be paid - but it’s not really clear why. Can anyone help/explain? Also, I have already made a seat reservation on the Frankfurt-Amsterdam train - would that cover the supplement in this case, or do I still need to pay the supplement separately?

I'm coming to Sofia 3 days before I want to take the night train to Istanbul. As I understand it I have to get a seat reservation at the Sofia train station. Does anyone know if my partner and I can count on getting two beds in a coach just three days before, or if I should look at some other option?

Hi all!I am 49 days out from my trip to Vienna where I and a group of friends will be taking the Eurail from Vienna to Munich, then returning from that trip to then go from Vienna to Budapest. We purchased the four-day rail pass which as I understand doesn’t preclude us from purchasing seat reservations. When browsing the train station timetables to purchase these seat reservations however, we are constantly encountering situations where the first half of the connection is unavailable but the second half is for purchasing and/or we are being required to purchase a separate ticket altogether for that section of the train. From my understanding, the Eurail pass was supposed to act as our ticket/pass that we then purchase seat reservations in addition to.Here are the train pathways we are required to have seat reservations for:(Returning) Oct 3 - 20:09 - 21:52 - NJ295 Munich to Salzburg HBF(Departing) Oct 6 - 6:40 - 9:19 - RE4637 Wien to Budapest-Kelenfoeld(Returning) Oct 6 - 20:35 - 20:4

Dear Sir/Madam,I hope this email finds you well. I recently purchased a train ticket from Zagreb Glavni Kol. to Villach HBF for €6.00. I received a payment confirmation email on July 30th.

However, I have not received any email regarding my reservation yet.Could you please provide me with an update on the status of my reservation? I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter.Thank you for your attention and I look forward to your prompt response.Kind regards,Nienke

I have booked tickets by going from the rail app to the tgv site and paid for the reservations by pay pal. Now I can’t find the tickets. Help. 

I bought a ticket from brussels midi to London st Páncreas International, which required a seat reaervation.Do I need to activate a day of my Interrail Global Pass (10 days in 2 months) during that journey or is it enough with the train ticket and showing that I have an Int Global Pass? 

Before starting my question, let me tell you that I’m from Korea, and this is my first time to use Eurail pass, so there could be some problems with my English and informations of Eurail pass. I am planning a trip to Wool from West Ealing at October 21 with my Eurail pass,and the train from Waterloo to Wool shows like this.  “You're ready to boardYou can buy a seat reservation if you like but it's not required.Not available from Eurail.comThis seat reservation can’t be booked on our website. Check 'More information' for other ways to book.” Does that mean I can take a train to Wool from Waterloo without any problem using my pass?It’s just that I can’t reserve a seat with it, right?And if I can take the train with my pass, Can I just sit at any vacant seat? I tried to reserve a seat in National Rail, and in Trainline, just to make sure my seat.I could reserve a seat in there, but it starts with about 78£. I didn’t know tickets would be that expensive.So, if I am able to take a train wit

Trying to book the direct train (1hr 56min)  from Brig to Milano Centrale on Oct 15th - i see thats available the day after and before that but not on Oct 14th and 15th.  Can anyone tell me why its not available on that date, thanks.

Hey! :) I will be travelling to Finland in september but I was wondering if the Interrail App shows the departure time of trains there in MEZ or in MEZ +1 (finnish local time). I couldn‘t find anything about it on the internet so maybe someone here knows?It is important for my journey because I have another train in sweden which i have to catch (but that wouldn‘t work depending on the time if it would not be in MEZ).I appreciate your help!

Hello!Has anyone travelled from Athens to Igoumenitsa (ferry station)? Apparently there are no trains available for that route, so what would be the most logical option? I would assume some sort of train + bus combo, but where should I take the train to from Athens? I’ve been searching and checking and found some options, but just wondering if there is a “standard” route many take. :)Thank you!

Hallo, liebes Eurail-team! Ich hoffe, ihr könnt uns weiterhelfen! Unsere Tochter fährt morgen früh mit ihrer Freundin von Neapel über Mailand nach Zürich, um von dort weiter nach Leer, Ostfr. zu fahren. Die Reise ist gebucht mit allen notwendigen Reservierungen. Jetzt haben wir die Info, dass es Probleme auf der Strecke sowohl über den Brenner als auch dzrch den Gotthard-Tunnel gibt. Was könnt ihr uns raten?Viele Grüße 

Hi,We will be flying into Milano arriving at 11:00 AM. My hope is that we can take a train to Tirano in time to Get on the Berina Express to St. Moritz.  Is this possible?  Some sites show the last train out at 15:54, others show a 17:40 available.  Our travel date is October 6th.So confusing for an American to understand train travel… I wish we had a better train network in the United States! 

Hello! I am planning to use Eurail but i am travelling with my girlfriend and we both have 20kg luggage. We would like to know if we can travel with those luggage inside the train or do we need to pay some extra fees on this ?Thanks for the help! 

Hello.I want to travel from East Anglia to Central Europe via the Eurostar. To get to the Eurostar, I have to use 2 standard trains and get the tube (not covered by Interrail) to St Pancras Station for the Eurostar.Would the 2 connecting train trips, with a gap in the middle, and a trip on the Eurostar all count as one outbound trip, or would I have to buy the first section separately and then only use my outbound day for the Eurostar?The trip is all planned for the same day, and I do need to return home afterwards ( thought that will all count as one journey as all trains are connected that time) Thank you(the tube is annoying) 

Hi hoping for your help again!  We have been unable to book a reservation from Barcelona through to marseille tomorrow. We tried at a station in Spain and on the Eurail app. We are happy to take the non reservation route but just need advice re Cerbere  the tenge doesn’t show it stops  there but the Eurail app says change there but have to use public transport. So a little confused. Any advice for the journey Barcelona to Marseille tomorrow would be very appreciated. ( we have to go to marseille as our train to Paris is booked from there) thanks 😊 

Hi folksI will start with to teenagers in Monday.  Made a reservation and was not informed I cannot change it.  From Switzerland to Italy.  Have you experience of in practice the ticket control will accept it when we are in the earlier train?

We will travel to (Sweden and) Norway at the beginning of September. We are not yet 100% sure how long we want to stay in the Lofoten, so we are thinking about being spontaneous and reserving night train seats from Bodo to Oslo only a few days in advance.Considering September is not the main holiday season anymore, is it realistic to make the reservation that late and ideally also get sleeper places? Or do we need to make the reservations much more in advance? Any experience values?

I want to go beteende St Margrethen and Buchs, and find that there is a train replacement bus. According to the rail planner app, the bus is not included in the interrail pass, but that feels weird. Does anyone know if the bus is included or not?

Hi all,I have a question on the validity on the pass on border stations, especially between Germany, Switzerland and Austria. I have a global pass with residency in Germany and made the following experience with the app:I’ve used the pass on several occasions travelling from Konstanz (DE) to Zurich (CH), in this case the Railplanner app shows Konstanz as Konstanz (Germany), however it does not deduct an inbound or outbound travel day, as the station is literally a few meters after the border and since Konstanz station is part of the SBB train network. So no issues here.   In a similar case, I travelled with a separate ticket (Deutschlandticket) to Lindau-Reutin and then wanted to continue by Interrail towards Bregenz in Austria. Lindau-Reutin is again shown as Lindau-Reutin (Germany) on the app, however in this case the app wants to deduct an inbound or outbound travel day.I wonder whether behaviour of the app is correct in this instance. In this post I found the following list of the

Bonjour, je souhaite réserver un train de nuit de basel (suisse) à prague (tchéquie) pour le 17/08 mais lors de la réservation sur le site interrail ce message s’affiche : “Votre commande comporte un ou plusieurs billets papier. Malheureusement, cette réservation ne peut pas être livrée à temps à cette adresse. Renseignez une autre adresse ou réservez directement en gare.” Comment puis-je faire ? Si je souhaite réserver en gare le jour même il risque de ne plus y avoir de places :/ Merci pour votre aide ! Thelma
