Question

Confused about how it works!

We have a 4 day pass. We are a family of 4. We are travelling overnight from Barcelona to Paris, then paris to Truro (UK), then Truro to Norwich. We have managed only to book the Eurostar actually through interrail. The night train from Latour de Carol wouldn’t show up so we booked through Rail Europe (that apparently is connected?!). We also have seat reservations in the UK, which also don’t show up in the app and we don’t know how to connect it all. It seems all in different places. My question is: When we get on a train that ISN’T in the app, what happens when they ask for our tickets? Is it simply showing the pass number and then the seat reservation separately? Or are we missing a vital part?! Thank you!

Seat reservations are not connected to the Pass. You have to add all trains to the journey in the app. And activate them before you get on. (Depending on where you travel you might have to add trains manually that are missing from them timetable in the app)

Yes you just show you the QR code ticket generated by the railplanner app aswell as your reservation seperatly.

Purchasing reservation directly from the train company or from other sellers (like raileurope) is possible. (purchasing directly from the operated, if possible is usually the cheapest way as you avoid the additional fee that interrail or raileurope charge on top of the reservation price)
