Hi, I’m Luca from Italy, i look for people who wants to travel with me this summer through europe, i was thinking as period between end of july and start of september so for about less than a month and a half, i was considering going to France, Benelux, Germany, Poland, Czech republic, Austria, Slovenia so if you are interested reply to this message or dm me on instagram @lucafulgori, this will be my third interrail 

4 amigas y yo queremos hacer un viaje por Croacia, Eslovenia, Austria, Chequia y el sur de Polonia en 11 días. Habíamos pensado comprar el pase de 5 días de viaje en 1 mes. Dentro de un día de viaje podemos coger los trenes que queramos? Por ejemplo, si un día queremos ir por la mañana al oeste de Eslovenia y por la tarde coger otro tren a la capital, que está en el centro del país. Podríamos hacerlo? O coger dos trenes cuenta como que gastas 2 días de viaje de tu pase interrail? Cuantos trenes puedes coger cada día de viaje? No se si me explico. Y otra pregunta: los trenes de un pueblo a otro (de muy corta duración y distancia) entran también en el pase de interrail??

Ciao a tutti.Sto cercando di prenotare i posto per nun viaggio che farò a fine marzo/primi di aprile ma ogni volta che scelgo la tratta con gli orari prestabiliti misi apre una pagina con "ERRORE", dopodiché ritorno alla.pagina iniziale delle prenotazioni e punto a capo rifaccio tutto. Una cosa che va avanti a loop senza soluzione.Come mai? Sono già pieni i posti dei treni nonostante quasi 3 mesi di anticipo? Oppure è un problema dell App? O peggio ancora Sto sbagliando qualcosa io nella prenotazione?Grazie a tutti.

I returned 2 paper passes 3 weeks ago and bought mobile ones instead. I am worried that I haven’t received a refund yet as it is a lot of money! Has anyone else had problems with refunds? Janice

I have a 2nd class Eurail pass … can I opt to upgrade to 1st class tickets on selected trips? Not for the whole pass, just one maybe two individual journeys??

Hi, has anyone bought the Eurasia Global Pass from Agoda?? Seems like there are on quite a discount. On website it’s $734 for 7 days and on Agoda it’s only $676. Wondering if is there any difference buying it from the actual website vs this. Please help.  

Hi, I am trying to book a train from Paris to Bordeaux (June 2025) but I can’t figure it out. On the SNCF website the train is ‘unbookable’, Any tips or resolutions much appreciated. Aoife 

HI~I'm really sorry for only asking questions.I booked a train ticket from Milano to Monaco and completed the payment.From Milan to Ventimiglia, I can see only the tickets paid for 3.15usd$ for seats and 2.1usd$ for commission butI don't see a ticket from Ventimiglia to Monacothen how can I do?And the train from Milan to Tirano doesn't have a seat reservationI can't make a reservation and it only looks like a time table on my travel scheduleIf I just board the train, what should I show the train conductor as a boarding certificate?

Hi! I applied for the pass (with DiscoverEu) with 3 other friend and got it. Unfortunately the leader of our group can no longer come along on the trip. What does this mean? Can the rest of us still go on the trip? What if one of us wants to go on a different route?

Hi! I got the flexipass through DiscoverEu. My last possible departure date is August 31st. Is it in any way possible I can delay it one day? I mean is it possible to leave on the 1st of September instead? Or do I lose my pass if I don't leave on the 31st?

Novice travellers! Please help!My husband and I are from South-Africa and will be going to Europe to visit 6 countries to celebrate our 50th birthdays. We depart 16 March 2025 from SA to Amsterdam and return on 17 April 2025 from Paris back to SA. That gives us one month. Our itenerary will look something like this. 17-20 March in Amsterdam. The evening of the 20th I'm considering an over night train to Munich. 2 nights in Munich. Then 3 nights in Austria. From there 5 nights in Switzerland. 1 Night in Venice, 4 nights in Florence, 5 nights in Rome and 6 nights in Paris (I'm running the Paris marathon on 13 April 2025) Should we buy the one month Eurail Pass? And would that allow us to just hop on and off the trains?  

Bonjour, très grande première pour moi pour voyager en Interrail. On m'a dit qu'avec deux enfants de moins de 12 ans c'était intéressant financièrement. J'aimerais partir visiter Porto/Lisbonne du 14 au 18/19 avril prochain mais je ne comprends pas tout. 3/4 jours de pass devrait suffire. Quand je regarde le Paris Hendaye, il m'indique complet peu importe le jour ou alors je n'ai pas accès, comment est-ce possible ? Puis j'aimerais un Hendaye en train de nuit, et je n'arrive pas à aller jusqu'à Porto via l'appli, ça ne me le propose pas. Et le prix semble exorbitant (200€) ... Pouvez-vous m'aider à organiser mon voyage ? L'idée n'est pas de visiter Hendaye mais de tester les voyages en trains avec les enfants qui vont adorer, de tester le train de nuit, et donc de visiter  2/3 jours Porto et Lisbonne. L'idéal était de ne pas dépasser 1000€ de budget, je ne sais même pas si c'est possible. J'ai beaucoup de mal à comprendre quoi prendre et comment planifier/réserver. 

I am trying to use the discount benefit to buy some Disneyland tickets but at the time of entering the pass code me through the Eurorail page it tells me that the number is incorrect. Someone knows what the steps are to be able to apply the discount to the purchase.

Does anyone have any reason to believe that “Palinuro” is a frecce/italo station? This map seems to indicate it is a frecce stop between Sapri in Calabria and Vallo della Lucania in Campania, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere in Trenitalia or Italo’s system.https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/25/Mappa_della_rete_servizi_Le_Frecce_e_Italo.jpg 

I am checking if it will be possible to travel by train with my two cats. Has anyone experience with this?

I am planning to visit Windermere, Canterbury, Dover, Bath, and Chesterfield from London. I’m wondering if I can use the Eurail Pass for these trips. When I use the trip planning tool on the Eurail website to search for those cities (except for Bath), they don’t show up, so I’m not sure if it’s possible. However, all the cities appear on the Rail Planner app. Also, I’m wondering if I can access lounges if I purchase a first-class ticket.

Does anyone please know whether a France only Interrail pass is valid on SNCF trains to Mullheim from Mulhouse?

Hi, we’re planning a trip this summer and thought we’d buy a one country pass through France.  We’re wondering if Corsica is considered part of France or would we have to buy a Global pass if we wanted to cross to Corsica from Marseille?  Does anyone have any tips on train travel in Corsica?Many thanks

How far in advance can you see prices and book?  I want to work out if it’s cheaper for me to get Eurail passes or just buy individual sectors between Zurich, Salzburg, Vienna, Prague, Krakow and Berlin. Also to assess if it’s worth upgrading for business or first class seats compared to regular seats.

Hi there,We’re planning to use a global 7 day pass this summer to travel from the United Kingdom to mainland Europe. Our trip is as follows:Day 1: Lancaster UK to London (overnight in London)Day 2: London to AmsterdamDays 3 - 7: Travel in EuropeDay 8: Paris to London to Lancaster UK.I want to know:Whether the Lancaster to London outbound trip is covered by the global pass, or not, because the whole trip from Lancaster to Amsterdam is split over 2 days? Whether the Paris to Lancaster trip is covered by the global pass, because it takes place in a single day? 3. If I buy the pass now and activate it so I can plan the trip and book seat reservations, how long is it valid for? I.e. will it still be valid in July when we actually travel?Thanks so much!

May I use Global Pass for Edinburgh -Mallaig route ? 

What is included in first class?

Hello,I purchased an Interrail pass a few weeks ago to travel to Italy. However, I am realizing that there are a lot of additional costs. For example, we planned to travel from Brussels to Ljubljana to stay there for two days, then Ljubljana-Florence, Florence-Rome, Rome-Naples, and Naples-Amalfi.From Brussels to Ljubljana and from Ljubljana to Florence, we are offered night trains that must be booked directly through the ÖBB company. In this case, we are paying a "regular" price, and it seems there is no advantage to using the Interrail pass, if I understand correctly.Additionally, for every single journey within Italy, we are required to reserve a seat, which costs around 15 euros per person each time (whereas buses are much cheaper than train reservations via the Interrail app, around 5 euros per person).After doing the math, using the pass ultimately costs me an extra 137 euros.I wanted to check if I misunderstood something. Are my journeys actu

Hello guys, I have a 4 days travelling pass for one month. I am going to Netherland, Sweden and Germany from Bordeaux (France). For one day travel I have up to 4 trains to take (for exemple one train to go from Bordeaux (France) to Lilles (France) and then one train from Lilles to Brussels, then Brussels Rotterdam and Rotterdam Utrecht). Once I want to activate each train I have a message saying that I am using one travel day. My question is if I activate one train for my first day of travelling can I activate my other 3 trains (the same date) without using all my travelling days ? I am really confuse by this so if someone can help me that would be great ! Thanks a lot cheers :))
