He needs the pass number to make the Eurostar reservation , and would like to do this today, once the pass is orrdered. Thanking you, David.

The confirmation email address does not have the pass number.

You can generate a valid and working pass cover number on this page. You need to be logged in. Enter 6 random letters.

The pass cover number doesn't appear on your Eurostar reservation.

Hello David,

 

Thank you for your question. When you order a paper Pass, we will print and ship it to you within a few days. You will receive a confirmation email containing your Pass Cover Number and tracking information. The Pass Cover Number can be used to add a traveller to your Interrail account for making seat reservations on our website. You can also use this number to reserve seats on Eurostar through the SNCB website

If you need the Pass Cover Number urgently to make a reservation for a train that you believe might sell out, please contact our customer support soon after placing your order. We will send you the Pass Cover Number right away.

I also recommend checking out this article: "Travelling with reduced mobility | Interrail.com", which contains useful information for planning your friend's trip.

I hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out.

 

Kind regards,

Khyber
