Travelling by train

Hello,Does “Compartment for 2 passengers (Double)” on the NightJet 467 train from Zurich to Vienna have restroom and sink? It’s not clear if tickets are sold for the “Nightjet new generation” or “Nightjet”.Thank you!Kirill   

Hi there! My husband and I are planning a trip this April-May to visit Italy, Switzerland, and Croatia. We are a little confused about...How far in advance we should buy train tickets. Friends/family have said you can buy the day of or day before and don’t have any issues with not being able to get on a train. Is this true?  Traveling from Venice to Interlaken. When we go through the purchase ticket flow, we are prompted to buy a Eurail Pass and they are SUPER expensive. Can you not just buy one-off tickets? Do we have to buy a pass?   Buying tickets from one country to another. Is this a more complicated process?Thanks for your help!-Claire

Hello,my husband will be traveling to Italy this April. I am looking into a pass. I was wondering if a rail pass is the way to go or if I should just book individual trips via trenitalia?  Milan to Venice Venice to Florence florence to Naples/potisanonaples to Rome. flying out of Rome.  all tips are appreciated. 

I wanted to ask questions on how seat availability is on trains which state “This is a popular train. Seat reservations are recommended but not required.”. For example theres a train from budapest to Prague but it says seats are recommended. Obviously if its possible to save money I would want to not pay unnecessarily for seats that are available without booking. For context we are group of 4 people and was wondering if all 4 would be enough for these kinds of trains. Would highly appreciate someone who has done this trip before and has experience to give advice on the subject

i’d booked the class 1 seat before the trip on the schedule to take the euro star train from rotterdam to brussels, unluckily the train was cancelled! how can i continue my trip through the train cancelled issue?

I am flying into Rome. I want to take a train from Rome to Paris and then Geneva. Fly into Rome and fly out from Geneva. What are my options. I have a function in Geneva so it has to be my last stop. Travel days are 4/12 to 4/20. Thank you. It looks like a global pass will be a good option.

Hola a todos! Voy a hacer el recorrido en tren de Paris a Luxenburgo, Varsovia, Cracovia, Bratislava, Savreg y Liubliana. Alguna recomendación? Será nuestra primera experiencia, alguna indicación que pudiera ser de ayuda antes de comprar los tickets? Somos 2 parejas mayores de 70 años. Muchas gracias!

hello~!I'm sorry to always ask questions about EurailPassCan I use the Eurail Pass in the morning and use the OBB train or Czech train on the same day night?For example, if from Milan to Chur,use Eurail Pass early in the day and from Chur to prague makes a reservation using Eurail Pass on the Czech train app on same day night.also i booked from Wien to Paris by Eurail Pass on the OBB appand I received the train tickets on OBB by emailDo I need to register the tickets I booked through OBB or Czech app separately to my Eurail Pass?

Has anyone had any experience with eurail esims cards for cell phones? Just wondering if the price is comparable with AT&T, T-Mobile and similar plans.  ...or if you have a good recommendation for using phones in Europe.  

When initially planning my trip the app showed all available stations in the map view. Now it is showing none. Not even the big ones like Amsterdam Central and Gare De Nord. Did something change recently?

Wondering if I’m calculating my travel days correctly as well as a couple questions about the pass. Plan is to fly into Amsterdam (aug14) stay until the 16th, take a train morning of 16th to Brussels & stay here until 18th. 18th morning train to munich staying until the 20th which then will take a final train to Krakow Poland. Totaling 3 travel days, offering me the 4 day global pass. Curious if trains will be necessary around the city while staying in these towns while sight seeing/exploring and if this will affect my pass usage days? Also curious if I will need the eurail pass from the airport to my part of town when arriving into Amsterdam or better to take local Ubers/cabs? First timer going across the pond so any tips welcome. 

Hi! We want to go to Portugal by train in may/june. And we are travelling from the Netherlands. I was wondering if anybody did this already and what is the best route. 

Hello everyone, when I planned the journey Amsterdam - Brussels - Luxembourg - Paris - Lucern - Chur - Tirano - Milan - Verona - Venice - Vienne, there were 10 segments that are in accordance with 10 travel days, I guest. Why did the Eurail website calculate 11 days of travel?

Does anyone have any recommendations for apps for train travel in Spain, France and Italy? 

We (2 adults and 1 Youth) will be traveling to Rome in July 2025 and want to take a train to Germany, Austria, or some other destination to spend a couple of days then travel back to Rome for the last day of our vacation.  I need help on how to go about this.  Do I need a Eurail Pass or can I simply book passage by train? Are there restrictions or hurdles I need to jump to travel between countries in Europe?

Bonjour,Ce sera notre première utilisation d’un pass interail et d’un train de nuit.Nous souhaitons aller de Milan (après une journée de trains déjà depuis Bruxelles), vers la Sicile (on doit encore voir si on va jusqu’à Syracus, Palerme ou Messine).La date étant fin avril, la réservation n’est pas encore possible sur Trenitalia, mais est-ce qu’il faut réserver les couchettes via interrail (43 €/couchette), ou peut-on le faire via Trenitalia justement pour moins cher ?Nous sommes 2 adultes et 3 enfants, dont la plus jeune à 4 ans, du coup on prévoit de voyager dans une cabine de 4. Peut-on réserver pour 4 couchettes uniquement ?Merci pour vos retours,Joachim

Hello!We’d like to travel with the night train from Paris to Cerbère (or actually Collioure). However, I wonder if anyone has any info on the days of operation of this service in the end of June. I’ve read that these trains operate on a daily basis during “the summer”, but that is a bit to vague for me at the moment :-) If not daily, do you know which days these trains run? Perhaps - the planning for the summer is not yet presented/fixed, if so - when can I expect to get access to the timetable for June?Our Plan B will probably be to take the night train Paris-Toulouse, and from there a regional direct train. This is a good alternative although we’d prefer the direct train between Paris and Collioure. best regards, Anna    

Hi! I’m planning on traveling in May 2025, and I have two questions.Firstly, there is going to be a timetable change on May 17th. When will the new timetables be released in the app?Secondly, I’ve understood that the interrail planner app isn’t always updated when it comes to changes in departures. Does anybody know the go to sites for looking up live up to date departure times in respectively Portugal, Spain, France, Switzerland, and the UK? And does anyone have experience with whether or not Google maps has live updates?
