I travel tomorrow on the final 2 days of my Eurail-pass and suddenly my app does not open anymore!!!

Hi Community,Fearing the worst as time is running out, this is my problem. I have 2 days left on my Eurail-pass. As I returned ast Saturday I decide to use them for a trip to Dresden tomorrow, returning Tuesday. I have added the trips and activated them (and booked a hotel in Dresden). I also booked a separate ticket for the last part back from Germany to the Netherlands, as it isn't covered by the Eurail-pass. Now, at the final moment, as I checked the time the train leaves tomorrowmorning on my app, the Eurail app suddenly does not open anymore. It shows the opening screen and then closes after a second. I am stuck and have no proof that I have a valid Eurail-pass and my trips booked.Does anyone have a fix/answer.I sent a question to the Eurail-team just before this question.

Hello i am currently travelling on eurail with my family. I travelled from bratislava to Prague on 29th sep at 22.06, EN 476, carriage no 363, cabin 5 , seats 53 54 55. We found our cash 3800€ lost during journey. We have strong suspicion on conductor of cabin.he visited our cabin multiple times to supply free water bottles , cold water bottles , wipes, wake up service offer n general chat which we found unusual n in contrast to our previous night journeys on eurail. During our 10hr journey we locked our cabin n slept comfortably. He had key access to our cabin. Upon disembarking from train we found our cash 3800€ lost.We are in middle of travel across Europe...stranded family of 5 with young kids. We have reached out to bratisalva railway authorities, prague railway authorities and eurail customer service...so far no help or solution has been offered ....what step should we take next to get out of this distressing situation? Kindly help.

Do I need any extra ticket for a train with no seat reservations?

Can I just board the train with nothing more than my interrail pass?

Are outbound/inbound days outside of the days the pass offers?

If I take a 3 day pass, do I get 3 days + the 2 days for going in and out of my home country?

Multiple trains on outbound/inbound to reach a station NEAR the border.

So, the problem i have is that i live in france, literally 4 km away from the German border, and I wanted to go to Spain. The thing is that i’ll probably need multiple trains to reach the border.Not only that but the only way to get to the part of spain i want to go, is reaching the station on the french border side, and then, take a railway that is not part of the interrail. Would that be possible?

Booking Issue London to BCN

Hi everyone, I am currently trying to book a train from London to Barcelona. When I view the tickets without logging into my account, it looks like there are seats available. However, when I log in, I get the following message: “Prices unavailableNo price results were found. Pass holder reservations may be sold out for this connection, but there are other ways to check for available seats—more info below our timetable. “ Are tickets truly sold out? Is there any way I can purchase online?

How do I recognize the difference between the different class carts (1st class and 2nd class) on German Trains: ICE and Regional Trains?

I heard in Germany, they have different class seats on separate carts. I am mainly travelling on 2nd class, and I am just worried, that I am going to hop on to the wrong cart. Is it easy to differentiate them, looking at the exteriors of the carts, where carts are painted differently, or do they follow some sort of sequence, where front carts are usually 1st class, and back carts are 2nd class?

is there luggage lockers or storage at Rothenburg Ob Der Tauber Train Station?

Does anyone know if there’s luggage lockers at Rothenburg Ob Der Tauber Train Station? I am visiting Rothenburg from Wurzburg, and I am staying there for a day, then returning back to Wurzburg next day. The place I am staying doesn’t offer luggage storage, and I check in late, so I was thinking of leaving my luggage at the train station, but I just wanted to make sure that they have it before I proceed with it. If not I am thinking of leaving the non-essentials at the Wurzburg Train Station.

German rail pass - travel from Munich to Salzburg / Innsbruck / Verona

We are planning a trip with a German pass. We know that we can travel to Salzburg / Innsbruck / Verona on this pass, but what we’re not sure about is if we can stop at each city on the way and stay, then pick the DB train back up to carry on the journey, or if we need to return to Germany before doing the next part of the trip. Ideally we would like to go from Munich to Salzburg, stay overnight, move on to Innsbruck, stay there overnight, then on to Verona staying overnight, before coming back to Germany. Is this possible?
