Seat reservations with Eurail Global pass

I plan to travel by rail this summer through Germany and Switzerland with my family. Originally, I liked the Eurail Global pass because i thought I could be flexible on which train to take as each day presented itself rather than purchase specific routes ahead of time. However now I am learning that a seat reservation should be purchased because of possible crowded conditions with tourists and such. I also learned that you must purchase seat reservations 24 hours prior. If this is correct, then I am back to specific routes and times with no flexibility. What advantage is a Eurail Global pass if you have to buy seat reservations the day prior? It seems like I should just buy specific tickets which is a bit cheaper. What am I missing…thanks.

How do I ACTUALLY make a seat reservation when it says it is required, but there is option to book one?

Hello,I am trying to book a train for Italy Naples to Pompei in July and it says I need a seat reservation. There is no button to press to make the seat reservation. I can’t find out what company/train/website I need to find to make the seat reservation. I have attached an image of the train I would like to book at the beginning of July. I have tried through the app and through the website. I’m so clueless, I really do not understand how this is supposed to seem easy.

confusion with train times

Hi, I have just been entering my first travel day on interail planner and worried as my ticket to get from London St Pancras to Brussels midi is 9.01 am Sat 20th July. Arriving 12.05pm. I’m hoping to catch the 12.25 train to Koln. This arrives 14.15. Then 14.53 to Munchen, then 20.50 to Salzburg, arriving 22.42.When I put it into the planner it tells me that I get into Brussels at 12.13 ( not 12.05). If I don’t have enough time to get 12.25, then I looked at 1.25 from Koln to Munchen, but it says on site I need to reserve this train at 29 euros. The next train is 15.46, gets to Munchen 21.13, I would then have to get 21.43 to Salzburg getting in at 23.37. Sorry it’s so long, but my questions are, is the time on my ticket correct to get into Brussels on Eurostar at 12.05? Or is 12.13 as on interail site correct? Would I have enough time to get 12.25 train to Koln?If not, should I reserve the 1.25 train from Brussels to Koln at 29 euros? 3 of us travelling! Lastly, if all goes really wro

Réservation de place à imprimer chez soi

Bonjour tout le monde, Mon départ est imminent pour un petit tour d'Europe en train mais j'avais une question, j'ai effectué une réservation de place assise sur le site Interrail pour un TGV SNCF afin de quitter le territoire français. Mais cela me dit d'imprimer la réservation. Est-ce obligatoire d'avoir la version papier ? Ce qui m'amène à une deuxième question : dois-je prévoir de réserver ma place assise pour le retour en France et d'imprimer cette deuxième réservation avant de partir ou bien j'aurais la possibilité de présenter le QR code numérique ? (Je ne sais pas encore par quel pays passer pour mon trajet retour) Merci beaucoup pour votre aide

I'm a novice with many questions

I have some work in Kongsburg (near Oslo) on 4th July. I’d like to do all the travel by train. I have a family in Utrecht (en route nearly). So this would require leaving home in Welwyn Garden on 2nd July, staying with family in Utrecht and then on 3rd doing the Utrecht to Kongburg larger 2nd half of the journey. Returning on 5th with hopefully everything in reverse. Would buying some kind of pass enable a fare reduction ?

Verspätung Folgezüge verpasst

If I have entered a longer journey with several changes in the mobile app: One of the trains is late and I cannot catch the following trains. Do I then have to put together a new trip or can I take other trains (no reservations) with the notice of the delay without having to re-enter everything?Or, optionally, can I immediately insert several trains as a ticket whose times overlap?

Has anyone gotten a response from ÖBB customer service?

I’ve written a couple of times to them over the years and I’ve never actually had a response. Once trying to claim a delay repayment and once recently about a booking query. Neither time did I actually get anything back. Same with DB. Do they exist, can you get a response? Do they just ignore English!?I don’t think much of the train companies in the UK, but one thing we do have is delay repay which does work really well.

Are International Ferry Trips Free or Reduced with the 6 Day Greek Pass?

I thought that there were 2 international ferry crossings included in the 6 day pass. One in and one out and that they were free. But when I try to book there is no option to pick the 6 Day Greek Ferry pass just the Interrail global pass. Can anyone let me know whether that are free or just discounted and how to book if there is no option. Many thanks

Senior Greek Ferry Pass Enquiry

Hi, I hope someone can help. I am buying an Interrail Greek Ferry Pass along with my Interrail Global Pass and in looking at how to book an international ferry to Greece I tried to book as a senior as I am 60 and that is the pass I have. On the island hopping it is fine as the checkbox is 11-99 but when I book the international leg of the journey it will not let me use my pass unless I check the 26-59 age group. I think you get a reduction as a senior over 60 anyway so this might be the reason. But I want to know if it is OK to check the 26-59 years box so I can use my pass even though I am 60. I don’t want to buy it and then find out I cannot use it on the international leg. Hope this makes sense and Thanks.

Unreliable information on NJ469 Paris-Salzburg

Hi everyone! I have tickets on the NJ469 next week (16/05) from Paris Est to Salzburg. Short version: one customer representative told me the train is not leaving from Paris, but Strasbourg because of construction work; another told me that the train was not modified and would still be leaving from Paris. Does anyone have more information about this train? This is the long version:Initially, the train was supposed to leave at 19:12 from Paris Est. However, on 25/04 we received a (somewhat cryptic) email from ÖBB (“Information zu Ihrer Verbindung”) telling us that “Der Fahrplan Ihrer Verbindung von Paris Est (16.05.2024 19:12) nach Salzburg Hbf hat sich geändert” (i.e. there have been modifications to our train).Looking at the online timetables, it appears that NJ469 is no longer leaving from Paris, but from Strasbourg because of construction work. Indeed, on the nightjet.com website, one can find this message: “NJ 469: Due to construction work, this train cannot run between Paris Est a

I have a problem with seat reservations. I have the discoverEU app and the Rail Planner app. Now I want to make a seat reservation for the trip on the Rail Planner app, but only the trip from the DiscoverEU app is displayed. If I click on "Is a trip not displayed? Create trip", a new trip is created on the DiscoverEU app.But I need a seat reservation for my trip on the Rail Planner app.

Istria Express from Budapest - Ljubjana

Hello, I am trying to book a private two bed-compartment on the Istria Express train on 29.06.2024 at 21:00 from Budapest to Ljubljana on https://jegy.mav.hu/, using my Interrail Global Pass. When I tried to book, the price was for the whole ticket which I thought was strange considering I entered that I had a rail pass. I contacted MÁV-START and they said: "Unfortunately, the supplementary placement reservation with EuRail/InterRail Pass currently does not work for that international route, so you are not able to buy it from the MÁV-START's online purchase system. You can only buy it in person at any international ticket office (where you have to show your EuRail /InterRail pass)." Is in-person at Budapest station the only way that I can book this train? Thanks

BEAUNE - WINE TOUR

Hello. We have been using the EURAIL pass for the past month and have enjoyed the experience immensely. I have used this forum many times and have found the advice and feedback to be outstanding. The EURAIL community is exceptional. I now seek some advice regarding a day tour in Beaune. We will travel from Annecy to Paris via Beaune. We would like to experience a Chateau & tasting tour and hope that the community can offer some advice on a worthwhile experience. Thank you.
