Rail strikes and connections

Hello everyone,I'm a first time interrailer and had my first trip (from germany to the uk and back) all planned out when I ran into problems for my trip back due to the announced strikes in great britain.My intended itinerary had me taking a train from Leeds to London on the morning of the 30.3. and then the Eurostar to Paris at 17:31. Since this late train would make getting all the way home quite tight and depending on a lot of connections, so I opted for staying the night in Paris and taking the TGV to Freiburg at 17:25 on the 31.3.I'm travelling with a global pass and have already reserved the Eurostar as well as the TGV.With the now announced strikes I'm unsure how to proceed, as at the moment it looks like there will be a high possibility of no train running on the 30st from Leeds to London (there is no strike timetable yet) so I have no possibility of getting to London in time to get the Eurostar.What possibilities do I have here?I'd rebook to an Eurostar on the 31st, but there

Date d'achat pass jeunes

Bonjour,J’espère que vous allez bien. Je voudrais savoir si quelqu’un à déjà été dans ma situation. Au moment de l’achat de mon pass interrail jeune au mois de mai 2022, j’avais 27ans et j’avais donc 11mois pour partir. Je souhaitais partir l’été 2022, mais je n’ai pas pu. Je voulais donc partir en avril 2023, cependant je viens de voir qu’on ne pouvait pas activer son pass si on a plus que 27ans, je me retrouve con et je ne sais pas comment faire. Quelqu’un à déjà été dans la même situation que moi ? Merci de votre aide.Ludovic

urgently looking for an answer and look forward to hearing from you🤗

Heyy,I am currently in France for a year abroad (but have my official residence in Germany). Since I want to visit my family in Germany in May and then return after 10 days, I need two train tickets; from France to Germany and back... I was wondering if I might save by buying a global ticket for 4 days of travel within a month....Does anyone know if this would work?After all, I wouldn't be starting in my country of residence..., but I would still meet the requirement of only two travel days through my country of residence....I will be very happy if anyone can give me an answer soon 🫶🏻Kind greetingsAlinaTranslated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

Descuentos durante el año

Buen día! Disculpen las molestias, pero quisiera saber si hay algún mes entre marzo y sep. en que las ofertas y promociones de Eurail sean mejores (por ejemplo, mayores descuentos que el 15% por temporada de primavera) que convenga esperar para comprar el paquete de 15 días en 2 meses!Muy agradecido! muchas gracias!! (nuestro entusiasmo es mucho, por ello hacemos tantas preguntas!)

Visa while interrailing

I’m from the Uk and am interrailing for a few weeks and then staying in Sweden for a couple of months. This will take me up to the 90 visa free limit. I’m then going to Bulgaria for a month straight from Sweden. I’ve looked online and it says I don’t need a visa because Bulgaria isn’t part of the Schengen area, but I just wanted to confirm this before booking flights etc.

Impossible to get in touch with anyone from customer service

This is a chronic issue with Interrail staff. Very simply, I cannot fathom how a travel agency can operate with no telephone number, no way of contacting them, no email address. This is at the fringes of legality. All you can do is write to a chatbot that represents the current highest standard in artificial dumbness.Three days trying to get in touch with someone and instead I have to deal with this annoying piece of dumb software that tells me 750 times a day that I have received a confirmation email and a ticket has been created.Can someone send me a phone number or email address? Can I talk to some real person?

Hello there, I’m a French student in London and I would like to know if there is a pass that could help me do round trips from London to Paris during this whole month? I would like to go to Paris at least twice or 3 times starting in March if it’s possible. Is there any mobile pass that I could buy that’ll allow me to do so? Thanks in advance for your answer!

Dutch trajectory with NS Flex Dal Vrij

I thought I figured it all out… I am travelling with my Interrail Global Pass (mobile) for the first time. My first journey is from Amsterdam to Frankfurt, with ICE 123. In the Netherlands, I have a NS Flex Dal Vrij subscription, which should allow me to travel for free on the Dutch part of the trajectory. I read everything I could find about this, on this forum and on the NS website. So what I did: I added a trip to my pass, manually added a journey to my trip with the ICE 123, starting at Emmerich(Gr), ending in Frankfurt. I brought my NS card but did not check in in Amsterdam. This is how I understand I should do this.However, the NS personnel on the train made me pay a ticket from Amsterdam to Emmerich(Gr), maintaining that I could only travel on my NS Flex subscription without checking in if I had a ticket from Amsterdam to the border station as well. This cost me 61 Euro (1st class). They did not give me a 50 euro fine.Were they right? If so, how could I do this in the future, wi

Bike on UK train

We live in the UK. We booked and paid for 2 rail tickets with bike spaces (no they do not fold down) from our home town to Newcastle where the ferry to The Netherlands sails from. Then afterwards we bought a 3 month Eurail pass and realised it INCLUDES one trip to port of leaving your home country and one back from port of re-entry in your home country to our home town. I have been to my local rail station and they say there is no issue with giving me a full refund on these tickets - BUT nobody seems to know how to add our bike spaces (2) onto this Eurail pass! They just look blankly at you as it’s not a UK company! Any tips appreciated - I am going to get the money back as it was £122.60!!! Thanks Community…...

Voyage retour dans le pays de résidence

Bonjour,Je ne comprends pas ce qui concerne le voyage retour dans le pays de résidence :Comment voyager dans votre pays de résidenceNos Pass ont été conçus pour être aussi flexibles que nos voyageurs. Voilà pourquoi votre Interrail Global Pass est désormais valable dans votre pays de résidence, pour un trajet aller et un trajet retour que vous pourrez effectuer à tout moment pendant vos jours de voyage (les trajets aller et retour ne sont pas considérés comme des jours de voyage supplémentaires). Si plusieurs trajets aller-retour sont prévus, vous pouvez vous procurer des billets individuels auprès de la compagnie ferroviaire de votre pays.Ces voyages doivent être effectués pendant la durée de validité de votre Pass. Si vous disposez d'un Pass proposant des jours de voyage flexibles, comme le pass 10 jours sur une période de 2 mois, et que vous souhaitez commencer ou finir votre voyage dans votre pays de résidence, ces trajets doivent avoir lieu pendant vos jours de voyage.

Driving in Europe

Not a Eurail question really. I am from Australia and my friend and I want to see some out of the way places and are considering hiring a car rather than buses and trains. However we drive on the left side of the road. Is it safe and is it very hard?? We would only do it in the regional areas not in the cities and big towns. Cheers, Renee
