Train connections & reservations

Hi there, My family and I are travelling on the OBB Nightjet from Brussels to Vienna tomorrow (24th). We have the OBB app showing our seat reservations and I’m assuming I don’t need to print the ticket as well; in the details it states you can just show your phone with the reservation and photo ID,  but I wanted to check if sometimes they need you to have a printed version of the ticket? Just a last minute thought/worry before we set off! Many thanks. 

Hi!I made seat reservations for the trip Krakow Glowny (Poland)-Budapest-Nyugati (Hungary) (Train Number IC 114) for the 2nd of August 2023 and Budapest-Kelenfoeld (Hungary)-Innsbruck Hbf (Austria) (train number RJX 162) for the 5th of August 2023.My paper tickets have been rejected at the destination and I need to leave in a few days.Do you have any suggestion?Are there other websites where I can make reservation with e-ticket?I found these websites:Ceske Drahy (Krakow-Budapest) OEBB (Budapest-Austria)Are they correct to obtain e-tickets?Thank you for the reply.  

Hi, I have booked a night train (EN 40237) from Munich to Ljubljana on 17th Aug 2023, there was no option to choose the type or class of seat/compartment etc so i dont know if we have an actual bed.  the ticket says seats ‘centre (mitte)’ 93-94 and ‘window (fenster)’ 95-96.  Does this mean we only have a seat and not a bed?  I also dont know if we have the compartment to ourselves, im not comfortable with sharing it with 2 strangers.  Does anyone know how to find this out? many thanks

Hi, first time using our Eurail global pass. We want to go from Barcelona to Brussels. Looks like most routes go through Paris so I have even tried breaking it up but everything says “prices unavailable” or “not available on Eurail.com”. How do I reserve these seats? We are needing them for this coming Tuesday!  I’d also like to add I have also gone to the train station we will be leaving from and they also won’t book us a ticket from there to Paris. Extremely frustrating  Someone please help 

Hello - I am looking to travel from Copenhagen Airport into Sweden.  From what I see on the Eurail website it looks like this is covered by my pass.  But in the mobile app there is no option to select the airport station when adding a trip.  I only see the city station.  How do I add this trip?  Thanks!

Does the ÖBB Reservierungsrabatt 50% discount on reservations work for Eurail passes?Does the discount work on night trains? or just the seat reservation component, not the couchette/sleeper feeDoes it work on Italian trains that can be booked on OBB website? ÖBB Reservierungsrabatt-50 % discount on seat reservations on long-distance trains. 

Hello,  i have a problem. I have made reservation for the train from Venice Italy 4th of august to Nice Ville in France. I have made reservations for the train that leaves on 13:48 and arrives on 22:30. With 2 stops at milano and Ventimiglia.  when i was checking the platfoms on the OBB site this train does not come up anymore, but it is still in the railplanner app and i have the reservations. Does anyone have any experience with this?  thanks!! 

Moin,wenn ich aufgrund der DB meinen Anschlusszug, der nach Frankreich führt verpasse, kann ich einfach den nächsten nehmen? Weil ich hab für den Anschlusszug die Sitzplatzreservierung gekauft gehabt. Oder muss ich dann erneut Sitzplätze kaufen? wenn ja, krieg ich das wenigstens erstattet?    

Can I go to Monaco with the Germany- France pass?

I learned the hard way how to increase chances for 2 seats together on Eurostar trains. However, before learning how to do this, my partner and I reserved seats on a Eurostar train with seats in totally separate coaches. Is there any way to change an existing seat reservation for a train in early October to have 2 seats together. Thank you. Michael 

Hello,I am on a Euro trip this summer with my teenage daughters, so far the facilities on the trains have been goo but we are wondering if there is wifi and charging points on thee trains from Budapest to Zagreb as its a long 6 hour journey! many thanks Anna

Hello,  Next week i am traveling from Wien in Austria to Rijeka in Croatia. I booked my seat reservations through the OBB site, and it said that i only needed reservations from Wien to Salzburg. When i was entering the trip in the rail planning it was stated that i needed three different reservations. Which one is correct? Has anyone experience with this?  Greetings 

We like to travel to Spain by TGV in april may from Amsterdam and also to travel  in Spain with high speed train. How can we know if there are still places available without buying a pass first?  

Hello. I have purchased a 1 day Eurail pass (France). I am planning to travel from Barcelona to Paris on September 3rd. When I try to make a seat reservation it says “Your pass isn’t valid in some of these countries”. Everything I have read online says this Eurail pass allows travel between Barcelona and Paris so I am confused why this is happening. Does anyone have any ideas?

I saved a trip but when I went in to the app later to book it I can’t find any option to do so. Is there a hidden button I’m missing? 

Is it possible to make reservations on Interrail for trains in/to Spain and get them shiped via mail, so to get them in advance and avoid making reservations at train station in Spain? How to do it?

Hi, this is my first time using a Eurail ticket, and I’ve spent hours trying to make seat reservations for Polish trains in September. We’re traveling from Berlin to Gdansk, then a few days later from Gdansk to Poznan, and from there to Hamburg, Germany. The train from Berlin to Gdansk, EC59, leaves at 12:52.It’s not possible to book seat reservations for this train on the Eurail site (it says Prices Unavailable). Next, I tried Bahn.de - same thing, seat reservations not available (train tickets are, so I know the train isn’t full, but then I can’t use my Eurail pass).Next I tried the Polish website, PKP Intercity. I can see the train that I want to take on that site, but there is no discount for Eurail pass holders, only for  “Youth”. Later trains seem to be available, e.g. one at 13:51 via Poznan, but they cannot be booked online, the message says “You can buy a ticket for this connection at the counter”. No option to purchase a seat reservation. And since I’m not in Poland, I can’t

This looks very wrong:@Camilo. @Mukhammad From a certain date, (some?) Thalys trains seem to be disguised as intercity. If this is not fixed soon, then there are going to be a lot of disappointed travellers.The information in the app looks (still?) OK.

Halloich habe eine konkrete Frage. Wir möchten von Hamburg nach Fredericia in Dänemark fahren und haben festgestellt, dass es einen reservierunngspflichtigen Abschnitt von Schleswig nach Padborg gibt, für den man aber keine separate Reservierung kaufen kann.Müssen wir nun ein Ticket für diesen Abschnitt kaufen oder steigen wir mit unserem Global Pass einfach in den Zug?Danke für eure Antworten, es ist relativ dringend (zeitlich)Viele Grüße, Kerstin  

Hi,I recently bought my Interrail pass and started to reserve seats. I would’ve need a ticket from Amsterdam - London on the 11st of August. I saw that there is no more seat on the Interrail site, so I checked the SNBC’s site. After pressing “Later trains” I found a train, got happy and reserved it… for 30th of August (accidentally). We have several other parts of the journey purchased so impossible to travel on the 30th of August.I tried the date changing on SNCB and on Eurostar as well, but I should pay around 700 euros. Do you have any idea what to do now? I found alternative ways to London from Brussels, and it would be okay for me, but I already paid 100 euros to a seat I will not need. Maybe there is a chance to get my money back or change the reservation to 11th of August? Thank you!

Hi All, I'm trying to travel from Munich to Zagreb via the overnight EuroNight 40237 train on February 4th but when I try to buy from the ÖBB website it's saying there are no options available in all of the options (seats, couchettes, sleepers).  I've tried other dates, varying from today to the end of February and none of them seem to have any options so I don't think the trains are sold out. Additionally I've tried changing the starting location to Salzburg but it's still the same outcome. Is there some issue with the ÖBB website? Thanks :))

DB has an IC Brussels-Lille listed today. Is that a new connection? Would it be usable with an Interrail pass? Strangely, neither SNCB nor SNCF list that train. 

Hi, my parents and I plan on travelling from Den Haag Centraal (Netherlands) to Milano Centrale (Italy). Basically, we were planning our travels  on 18/06/2023 for the travel date 03/01/2023 and we found a timetable, for which we bought a seat reservation for. But now it’s dissapeared, but I can still find the timetable on other train apps, so we know it’s still going, but that the railplanner app doesnt show it. But I’m under the impression that in order to use our mobile passes we need to generate passes for the specific trains, which you do through the railplanner app, and we can no longer do that since the route does not show up anymore. Does anyone have a solution for this? The alternative that the railplanner app is showing is a worse option, that requires more seat reservation, and on different trains than the train that we already reserved our seat on. I’ve attached the image of the original route we planned on taking.  Any info would be very much appreciated! 

I just purchased a global Eurail pass and created a Eurail account, and now I want to reserve a seat to get from Vienna to Amsterdam (any route possible).I’ve tried multiple different routes, days, browsers etc. but every time when I get to the check out screen, the system runs an error and says “something went wrong”. I’ve sunk 6 hours into trying to reserve this trip. It’s really frustrating.Am I missing something?

Hello,yesterday I’ve bought a seat reservation for a train ICE 9558 (Mannheim → Paris Est). I thought there’ll be an option to choose where I’d like to seat after pay, anyway it chose me random seat right in the couch 22. I’m travelling with my girlfriend who doesn’t have an Interrail pass, but every train I saw yet had an option to choose where exactly I’d like to seat. When I tried to buy tickets for her on the https://bahn.com (Deutsche Bahn site) I wasn’t able to select the seat and the same for SNCF, they didn’t tell me the seat before I buy it.  I’m afraid that if I buy two random seats and the train will be full, there’ll be no way to seat next to each other. Also, she’s getting sick when seated somewhere else than next to the window and in the direction of the travel.  Is there anything I can do? Or at least can I refund my “random selected” ticket? The ticket (22/42) isn’t even in the direction of the travel as it seems from this only available plan of the couch https://www.va
