Train connections & reservations

Is it possible to get off at a stop that is not the destination?ex: I bought an “reservation required ticket” for Padova -  Munich.If I wanted to get off in Salisbury to spend a few hours there and then take a train to Munich, which does not require mandatory reservations, could I do it? Obviously all in the same day, we are talking about 4/5h. 

Puedo comprar reserva de asiento para cracovia-polonia en alguna estación que no sea en Polonia? 

I have just reserved an overnight train that requires paper tickets. I leave for Europe BEFORE my paper tickets are supposed to arrive at my address in Canada. What should I do in order to get those tickets before the scheduled train ride?

I have a 7 day Eurail pass that I intend to use next month. I made reservations with Trenitalia for a trip from Milan to Venice. My plans have changed and I now want to travel 8 days by train. It would cost me less to pay for a ticket instead of using my Eurail pass between Milan and Venice, and use my pass on a more expensive trip. Can I keep my reservation and buy a ticket, or do I have to use the pass? The reservation says I’m using my pass.

HiMyself and one other are trying to book a train on 26th June from Lake Bled to Split. The train we were looking at is 7.31 bled to Zagreb, and then 15.19 Zagreb to Split. We are having trouble getting seat reservations and very unclear as to why whether it is sold out or not we are not sure.If a train requires seat reservations can I still board without a seat and sit on ground/stand?Any help would be greatly appreciated

On 1st July, I will be travelling from Zurich to Amsterdam! I have already made my sleeper reservations on NJ402 thru OBB, which shows it's a direct train. Later, I went to Eurail to book the train, however, there comes the confusion. In Eurail, the train with number NJ402 shows that I need to transfer to another train in Utrecht (IC 3022). If I select this, the train journey will be counted as 2 days, instead of one.  There is another option for a direct train, which weirdly departs on the same time. The number of that train is IC 60402.  Now, I am very confused which option should I select. Is IC 60402 and NJ402 the same train? I don't want to waste 2 days on a single train journey, where in reality, it is supposed to be a direct train. Help will be much appreciated 👍

I’ve been trying to book a seat from Paris to Antibes for the past couple of days, but every time I try to get to the “review payment” page, this error message keeps popping up for multiple days/times - one of the legs of your journey is not available anymore. Please try searching for another connection. Does this mean that all railpass seats are sold out? 

Hi everybody!I try to find the answer on the communiste but i do not find it.I bought an interrail pass but i was not aware about the difficulties with bikes!!! :)I finally find how to book tgv in France with bikes (call sncf many times to find someone Who know the way or go to the train station) and i am now in germany. It looks easier but i have à doubt.So i try to book train from mannheim to munchen the 18th of july with 4 bikes.the options bike and interrail are available on DB.com :)At the final, it proposés to me tickets at 18€ for 4 tickets. It looks that it is the seat booking fées without bikes and the website does not speak about bikes at all.Do you think that the bikes are included or not ?Must I call DB to book for the bikes ?I hope you understand my doubts! Thanks for your help!

Hi! I’m travelling solo this summer throughout Europe, and this is my first time using eurail!  I bought a 22 days pass so I’m hoping to travel by train as much as possible (in terms of travelling between cities/ countries) and not resort to other transport such as plane/ bus etc..  I need to go from Copenhagen to Amsterdam (or Utrecht) on 27 July, which requires me to first take a train to Hamburg  I saw on the DB website (https://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en?ld=43108&protocol=https:&seqnr=1&ident=2s.08833108.1685120803&rt=1&OK#hfsseq2|2s.08833108.1685120803) that I can go by a direct night train EN345 which operates on 27 July 2023 and is operated by SJ and reservation is compulsory I then went to SJ’s website (https://www.sj.se/en/kop-resa/valj-resa/K%C3%B6benhavn%20H/Hamburg%20Hbf/2023-07-27) to make a reservation but couldn’t find EN345 here nor any trains by SJ from Copenhagen to Hamberg that allows me to reserve any trains   Now I have these questio

I have Global Pass for 4 days in a month.I have bought almost all required seats to travel from Kutno, Poland to Paris Nord on 21-22 of June 2023. Also I have almost all needed seats to travel from Paris Nord to Kutno on 26 of June 2023.I had some difficulties finding thalys from Koeln to Paris, so I booked other tickets from Bruxells to Paris via Berlin. When buying then I didn’t book seats from Kutno to Berlin Ostbahnhof, as I wasn’t sure if everything will finish ok wit buying Thalys. Now I Can’t book the cheapest seats, seats for EIC 40 train from Kutno to Berlin Ostbahnhof on 21 of June 2023 and EC 249 from Berlinh Hbf to Kutno on 26 of June 2023 which were only available to deliver by post. What should I do next?

Hi! I’m trying to check my route from Trieste to Zagreb in early September on the Interrail website to see if I need to make any reservations. At the moment the system is only showing one route (14h via Udine and Villach).I checked on the Deutsche Bahn website for the same day (7th Sept) and they’re showing a much simpler route taking the train via Ljubljana.Is this included in the Interrail pass, and if so, do you need a seat reservation?(also any reason why this isn’t showing up on interrail itself?)Thanks!

I am an individual who won a pass and I had a group of 5 friends who have also won a group pass. Because I didn´t want to go on my own, I have decided to go with them, having already paid for all of our Airbnbs. My question is if I will have to face any constraints regarding seat reservations ( having to be in a different place than their group or having to pay more) or regarding trips ( a trip that they are in is fully booked and I will have ot take another train all by myself). Apart from that, I would be tremendously thankful if you could give me any information regarding an individual person joining another group! 

Hello!So…what should I start with? Long story short…I want to buy seat reservations for Warsaw Centralna-Berlin Hbf on 22nd of June at around 12 o’clock. Last week I ve noticed several changes. The train EC44(EIC44) leaves now from Warsaw Gdanska and goes only to Berlin Lichtenberg…because of construction work on both sides…departure at 12:15 and takes longer. But thats not the problem. Problem is that seat reservation is still not possible. Moreover, the train shows now only on interrail mobile app and on intercity.pl. This connection doesn’t apparently exist anymore on interrail website or on db(bahn.com). I talked with both sides, the oddness is in the air. Soo if at first I wanted and couldn’t buy seat reservation, now I m not sure even if I am able to board it :)))so is anyone so kind to help us telling whats going on with this connection and how can we buy seat reservation? It s a 6h trip so standing isn’t an option. Thank you for any help :) 

Hello,I’ve done a trip once with interrail. So I know the basics, inbound-outbound, travel days, the difference between trip and journey etc. I was using a flexi paper pass back then.Now I am planning to do another trip and I have few questions about the mobile pass.My understanding is that once I activate it (and I need to do this in order to book the reservations) - my trip gets fixed and I cannot change it, i.e. I am going from place A to B on the days X, Y, Z and I cannot change it either to be from place A to C or on days, X, Y, Q.But does it really work like that? I remember when I used paper pass each day I could decide that I want to travel that day and get on that or another train. I had a lot of flexibility.I would like to give an example below:Let’s say I need 4 travel days: 13, 14, 18 and 30th I need to book a reservation for a train on 13th. If I understood correctly, in order to do that I need to submit a trip in the app and activate my pass. From that moment my trip  is

I have tried numerous times and do not see seats available for the Thalys High Speed Trains. I am new to this reservation process. It appears all seats would be taken on any High Speed train option from Brussels to Paris. Is that correct? I’m Starting this late to get seat reservations for Late May or early June. Is that correct I’m too late for such a seat reservation? I just want to know so I can plan an alternate route that will take longer and we need to plan adequate time

Hello everybody!  Taking the Eurostar back to London this weekend and have a small query on how to get to London Bridge from St Pancras.... if possible using only the Eurail Global Pass. The Eurail App doesn't show any direct routes but on digging I found this route below:   However, since the reliability of the app has come under the clouds during my stay in Spain, thought I would ask here for greater clarity… By the way, my ultimate destination is High Brooms (via London Bridge):  Also, if there's another direct way to get to High Brooms from St Pancras International, please do let me know. Many thanks in advance for taking the time to respond.  Regards.

Hi!I'm trying to reserve a seat/seats on a Warsaw - Paris journey, via Berlin & Frankfurt.I can see the whole journey and each leg, but DB won't let me reserve a seat directly on the website.The issue seems to be the Warsaw - Berlin and Frankfurt - Paris legs, ie crossing the border.If I book separately, it seems that I can reserve the Berlin - Frankfurt leg with no issue (this, paradoxically, is the leg that the 'site refers to as 'high demand') - the other two legs aren't currently that busy.Changing the date, class, changover time... makes absolutely no difference.I had a similar problem booking Warsaw - Rijeka and found that Warsaw - Pszczyna, then Pszczyna - Wien (same train) got around the problem, but no luck here.On the Interrail Rail Planner it specifies that reservation is required for precisely the legs I can't book, but not the one I can(!)Any tips on how to get these legs of the journey reserved?I’ve been told that I may have to go to the international ticket office he

Hello,I would like to book a compartment on the Stockholm - Hamburg with my interrail 2nd class pass.I am searching by entering my pass number, but I only get results in 1st class.Can I make this reservation while making sure that I don't have an extra charge on the day of the trip?I asked this question via chat, but SJ seemed to be unsure...Has anyone been in the same situation?Thanks in advance!Amélie

cant buy seat reservations for any trip through Spain. It says it is not available to buy it on the interrail website itself. How to solve this?

Hi everyone,Hoping someone can give me some insight on the Intercites night trains. I am finding conflicting information and schedules that don’t make sense.I am trying to go from Paris to Latour de Carol on Wednesday, July 19 on the direct night train. There is currently no direct night train showing on this route on SNCF for every weekday in July - only weekends. Same thing with the Paris - Cerbere night train.During the month of June, there are many departures showing for this route every day of the week (including the night train). Is it possible that there are actually far fewer departures during the summer months? I am able to find the opposite route available for booking (Latour to Paris) for any day of the week.Thanks in advance for any insight or advice.

Hello I have purchased an Italy Interrail pass for 4 people. I have reserved seats for two journeys without issue but I am having difficulty booking from desenzano Garda to Florence on 10th August 2023. There are lots of train times up to 6th August but from this time only early morning and late evening journeys are appearing. I looked on trenitalia website and a train around 10am is available but I can’t book it with my passes they’ve said I need to do it on eurail. Can anyone help ?

Hi everyone! We are Roger and Sherry planning our first interail journey. We have activated our mobile global passes within the app and we are trying to get used to the eurail app by using our global passes. We have navigated quite well planning different trains and routes where we have to a point used a travel day as requested and downloaded tickets but we can’t reserve specific seats or sleepers. Grateful for any information on what we are doing wrong.
