Can a part of a journey be skipped and not invalidate the other part

The start of our trip to Italy begins with a flight into the ROME airport. We are then traveling to Naples. That first journey inlcudes a local train from the Airport to downtown ROME and then a train from ROME to Naples. I had to make reservations on the ROME to Naples train. What I’ve just realized is that the first leg is a train from ROME Airport Fiumicino to the ROME Ostiense station. We then have to take public transportation from the ROME Ostiense station to the ROME Termini station and we have only 30 minutes between arrival at Ostiense and when the train from Termini to Naples is scheduled. There are no 2nd class train options from the Airport station to the Termini station that morning on the Eurail app, so I’m going to schedule a separate train on ItaliaRail from the airport to the Termini station in plenty of time to make the train to Naples. My question is whether it’s necessary to cancel the Journey I already have scheduled and schedule a new Journey on Eurail for just the Termini to Naples train, or can i just leave my current Journey unchanged knowing that we’ll skip the Airport to Ostiense train that’s in that Journey. Thank you very much.

You can skip the journey. It’s fine.

In general, it’s better to add each train separately - that way it’s easier to change things.

I think the Leonardo Express (Airport to Rome Termini) is considered all first class, and so not available to second class railpass holders.

Perfect, that’s what I was hoping. I didn’t want to risk messing up the train to Naples with the reservation by cancelling the journey I already have. Thank you so much!

Don’t worry. Changing things in the Trip Planner won’t affect your reservations. Your reservation is completely separate.
