Parsi to Frankfurt DB Reservation Changes

I have booked from Paris to Frankfurt on the Ice 10.52am from Paris Est on May 30th. We now have the opportunity to meet some French friends so want to push the time back. I went in to my DB portal to change the time to 13.51pm on TVG and got the message below. Is there ever a problem getting on the train with updated reservation/ticket? NoteClose dialogueWe do not currently check whether your ticket or seat are still valid on the alternative connection. For more information, please check the current Deutsche Bahn conditions of carriage

PRAGUE TO ZURICH 00:40 TO 13:20

HI COMMUNITY, I am trying to book Prague to Zurich from 00:40 to 13:20 train with 2 lay overs. The website says I need seat reservations for the first 2 trains but it does not show/allow prices to reserve it for. How do I go about it? 2nd questions, for the 3rd train from SALZBURG HBF to ZUERICH HB it says tickets are recommended but not required with a price. Should I get these optional tickets?

Help Freiburg - Bruxels

Hi!I’m getting an error every time I reserve any ticket from Freiburg to Brussels on May 7th, tickets appear available in different options, I reserve my seats for both legs and when doing the payment it says it’s been a problem with the ticket and asks me to find another one. Is there anything I’m doing wrong? I had no problem with my other tickets. Thanks!

Munich to Budapest problem

I want to buy Eurail tickets, but when I tried (practice run) to book seats for the Munich to Budapest train on August 26, it read “all booked up.” I tried every train on that date and with the same result - all booked up. I’ve read on travel forums that this is most likely not the case (that it is in fact not all booked up). I can’t proceed with buying Eurail passes as long as this is leg of the trip is not available to us. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

Is anyone aware of trains running from Ploče to Mostar?On zfbh.ba, I can see services starting in Bosnia, at Čapljina. But nothing extending to Ploče or Metkovic. Just a bus.I’ve seen reference that there might be weekend services running, but I can’t find any proof.

Help reserving tickets Lyon-Brussels

Hi, I want to reserve a ticket from LYON PART DIEU (France) to BRUXELLES-MIDI (Belgium) with SNCF Voyages for May 5th. It’s giving me the error “Prices unavailable”. You recommend usin RAilEurope websiote but my train doesn’t appear there, plus they seem to ask me for the money anyway. I have also checked the official SNCG page but they don’t allow me to reserve for Interrail, just buy tickets. How am I supposed to reserve?

I’m s Eurail pass newbie with confusion

I have purchased a Eurail pass for me and a friend. We’re heading to Amsterdam on April 27 and visiting seven countries going by train. I’ve taken many trains in Europe including this year but I’ve always bought regular tickets. This is my first pass and I’m confused even after reading the entire website. 1.) I have created seven “trips” in Rail Planner. I’ve successfully made a few reservations but some of the trips that say reservations recommended I’ve tried numerous times to make and I get an error message. How do I know if these trains are available? And for trips with several legs I get messages that say some of the parts of the journey can’t be made. 2.) Second question: for trains where reservations aren’t necessary how does one know what car to get on and what seats may already be reserved by others before we sit down? 3.) Finally some of the legs have very short transfers like 7-9 minutes! Is it possible to make these connections? We’re in our sixties and not marathon runners

Milan to Salerno or Naples/Sorrento?

Hi there, I am travelling with my 15-year-old daughter on June 8th from Milan. I am trying to decide between staying in Salerno or Sorrento, and to save time will get the fast train from Milan to Salerno or Naples (transferring to local Sorrento train). We will then base ourselves in one place to explore for 3 days. I know this is not near enough time, so would appreciate thoughts on the benefit of location and ease of getting around via public transport to places of interest - particularly Pompeii (we won’t do Vesuvius). We have a Eurail pass that we will use for the fast trains, but believe it won’t work for local trains. As a Mum and daughter travelling alone, I am keen to ensure the safest options, where we can maximise our time, without running around too much and not enjoying just being in this beautiful part of the world. Any recommendations for favourite, reasonably priced accommodation in Salerno (walkable to train) or Sorrento would be appreciated. I have found a wonderful A

Can I share the itinerary of a travel day with my companion?

Hi Community,It would be very handy if I could share a planned travel day from the Rail Planner with my companion, so she can add it to her Trip without having to search for herself. This does not seem possible, only with total Trips - or am I wrong?Hope so,regards, Pieter

Ravenna to Venice on Saturday June 15

I want to travel from Ravenna to Venice on Saturday June 15th. We travel to Ravenna from Florence on the previous Saturday to take a cruise, and we are staying for two days following the cruise in Venice. I was able to finalize all other train travel throughout Italy about a month ago, but this particular train is only showing a 6 a.m. departure from Ravenna on this date (and this is too early as we won’t have disembarked from the ship at that time). I’ve been checking this route everyday for the last month and thought more times might become available today, 2 months out, but still nothing. Does anyone know why this might be? Any assistance is appreciated. thanks.

1st trip: Paris - Sicily by train. How to do ?

Hello everyone!I would like to take a trip from Paris to Sicily. I don't understand how to do this with Interrail, especially since I would like to take a night train part of the way between Naples and Sicily, to Catania in particular. As far as I understand from Interrail, they have a connection between Naples and Catania. I would also like to take the return trip from Sicily to Paris.I have done some research and there is a train that detaches once you arrive at Villa San Giovanni/Messina. Bonjour tout le monde !Je souhaiterai faire un trip de Paris jusqu'en Sicile. Je ne comprend pas comment m'y prendre avec Interrail surtout que j'aurai souhaité faire une partie de mon trajet en train de nuit entre Naples et la Sicile notamment Catane car si j'ai bien compris d'après Interrail, ils font la liaison entre Naples et Catane. Mais aussi le retour Sicile à Paris.Je me susi renseignée, il existe un train qui se détache une fois arrivé à Villa San Giovanni/Messine.

sleeper trains to Italy

Can anyone recommend overnight sleeper trains in Italy? Would like to go from Venice to Naples and then Naples back up to Florence or Milan but there don’t seem to be many direct overnight trains to these destinations. Do any of you have any experience booking this type of trip?
