Hallo ZusammenIch habe Pläne wieder eine Interrail Reise zu machen evt im Sept 2023 oder 2024 und ich habe eine Route gesehen :Luzern-Venedig-Ljubljana-Zagreb-Bratislava-PragIch habe dann die folgende Verbindung gesehen ab 8.30 Ljubljana mit dem Euronight nach Zagreb ich wollte schauen ob man eine Sitzplatz reservierung machen kann es ist leider nicht möglich. Würde uns der Kontrolleur trotzdem mitnehmen und wir sitzen dann bsp. im Zug Gang oder ist es nicht möglich?  Würde mich über eine Rückmeldung freuen Freundliche Grüsse Rebublic  

i was planning a trip to swiss alps, but my family is not skiing, so not worth it. Asking for help planning 10 days in europe.  i need an itinerary that allows us to see as much as we can in a short time.  flying in to one city and out of another to maximize places visited would be great. thanks 

I’m confused about what I have done.I tried to reserve two seats on the train from Prague to Zurich. When I look in detail, I see I am allocated two seats on the Prague to Linz leg but not on the next leg.When I looked at the seat layout on the Linz to Zurich leg, it looks like all the seats are in rows of 3. All bar one have the two seats closest to the window marked as if reserved and the only two side by side seats left appear to be a middle and aisle seats.Does this mean we can’t get window seats on the Linz to Zurich leg, or am I doing something wrong? I have a 1st class Eurail Pass and I am going on the day train to get a good seat with a good view. The booking is for May 6, which I could only access starting a few days ago. Have I missed out already?  

@Camilo.I just learnt that the valid code for getting the Interrail/Eurail discount at Stena Line is EURAIL2023 On the benefit page the old and invalid code is shown. Can you please make sure that the benefit page is updated with the correct code ASAP?

Hi 😀I have interrail global pass, and want to like to do a reservation for AVI 9742 from LYON PART DIEU (2:30pm) - Barcelona Sants (7:32pm). I get over the interrail seat reservation this error message: “It seems no price offer is available right now. It is possible that all pass holder seats are sold out. Please check 'More information' and try other ways to book this seat reservation, or buy a separate full fare ticket to board. You need to buy a seat reservation to board.”So i called SNCF and they said to me, this train doesn’t exist, so it’s an failure from interrail website. Could somebody confirm that to me? That i would look after a different connection.  More background information why this train: So I will start the trip in Munich, and want to be before 9pm in Barcelona. so I found the connection (5am start in munich - 7:32pm arrival in barcelona) Thanks for you help! Patrick 

I’m planning a trip from Zermatt (Switzerland) to Miilano, Centrale (Italy) on August, 9.I’d like to know if the following route is OK with my Eurail pass.The route is not listed on the Eurail. com for seat reservation, but it is listed on SBB app (Swiss train). Can I use the following route with my Eurail pass?The route that I want is as follows. Departure 08:13 RegioExpress 224, Zermatt Arrival 09:37 Brig Bahnhofplatz -Trasnfer time: 7minDeparture 09:44 EuroCity 37, BrigArrival 11:40 Milano Centrale Please replay. I’ll be waiting for your answer.Thank you in advance.

Using the interrail pass in Switzerland in January and now again in March I must experience that some SBB trains e.g. between Kreuzlingen and Weinfelden, or Weinfelden-Winterthur are not bookable anymore Lines which are marked as valid in the Swiss Interrail map Map of Switzerland_SBB.JPG (1124×795) (interrail.eu) can no longer be booked (and I booked them with my old pass in January): But it worked beforehand, e.g. example from January:

I was just I formed by nightjet that Germany will be going on strike from 2000 GMT on Sunday (May 14) until at 2200 GMT on Tuesday (May 16).  This is during the window in which we are traveling via train to Germany and then on to the Netherlands.  They did not say that our tickets were cancelled, just that I should postpone my travel.  Is that the same as canceling my ticket or will they still have limited service and I should continue as planned?  As for postponing that is not possible, we are on holiday travel and will need to get back to the Netherlands to catch a flight. How should I proceed?

 I am travelling on a global pass one month first class fare between England (origin) France and Spain. I am travelling home from south of Barcelona to Newcastle, UK. I am travelling with an assistance dog which make things a little more complicated. I travelled from Barcelona Sants to Latour du Carol on the 14.30 train on Friday 21st April. I had also booked onwards travel to Paris on the night train from Latour du Carol (Pyrénées) to Paris, Fri 21st April, dep. 18.49 arriving 22nd April 06.33. My Eurostar was booked for Paris-London on Sat 22nd at 09.13. At 18.00 SNCF cancelled the night train and I was stranded in Latour du Carol. The staff at Latour were inexperienced and unhelpful and told me to head back to the next town (Puigcerda, 4 mins away by train, but in Spain) and stay the night, getting the train in the morning back to Latour de Carol. This was a bad idea as I arrived in puigcerda and there were no trains in the morning and no one to help. I got a

Duda sobre precios... buenas noches! Quisiera saber si los precios que apsrecen en la sección de reserva de asientos de la página de Eurail solo son por la reserva o incluyen costo del pasaje... (tengo pase global y de paris a Londres me aparece en la sección de reserva de asientos un costo promedio de 67 dlls... ¿ese costo sólo es por la reserva de asientos?) 

Hallo ZusammenIch ziehe in Betracht im nächste Jahr 2026 eine Interrailreise zu machen und wollte gerne die Erfahrungen Meinungen von euch wissen. Mein Reise soll starten in Bukarest wo ich 5 Tage bleibe. Danach habe ich gesehen das es einen NZ gibt ab Bucuresti Nord Gara A um 17.58 mit Ankunft um 08.50 in Budapest Keleti.Ich habe gelesen 2 mal kontrolliert wird an der Grenz dass man aussteigen muss und bei der Grenzstelleoffice den Pass vorzeigen muss ist das richtig?Ist das richtig wenn ich um 17.58 ab Bucuresti abreise und das so eintrage im Interrailpass das es als 1 Tag zählt ausser wenn ich umsteige das ich ein 2 tag einschrieben muss was bei dieser Verbindung nicht der Fall wäre?Ich habe mich mal umgeschaut für ein Schlafwagen Preis bei der Ungarischen Bahn und habe gesehen für ein 2er Abteil Schlafwagen bezahlt man 42 Euro für 1 Single sind es 98 Euro was für den Preis recht günstig ist. Was ist da zu empfehlen Tipps Erfahrungen?

We’re after a little further help planning our first, and likely last, trip to Europe in April/May, 48 days, flying into Rome and out of London. Because we’re in our mid 60’s, we need fewer stops, longer stays. We’ve purchased a 15-travel-day Eurail pass and already had some incredibly valuable advice from this web site, and we’re just trying to make sure our plan is sensible & we’re not missing something “unmissable”.We love the old architecture of Europe, mountains, lakes, scenery and wildlife, not so much the beach scene. The places on our “must see” list are as follows, listed in the order we are thinking about traveling:Tuscany,Lake Como.The Swiss alps – recommended was the Bernina & Albula railways between Tirano and Chur.Venice.Pordenone – I have family there so it’s 5 nights takenVienna.Zurich.The road from Dijon to the out

Hi everyone. I just joined the community as I have few questions to understand how and importantly when to buy EU rail pass. I have summarised my trip below: travelling dates: April 2025requirements: 15 days continuous travel global passtravelling adults : 2 adultscitizen: non EU citizens  question 1 - does EU rail pass prices change? How soon we need to buy if we have a travel booked in April 2025?soon we buy is better? Please suggest? question 2 - not able to see all trains in rail planner app but I can see few trains for April 2025 on EU rail website, why is that so and how soon in advance we can see trains on app? question 3 - not able to see all trains on EU rail website as well but I can see more trains on direct train website , why is that so as these trains are not matching my timings when I need to go as per my plans. question 4 - pass needs to be activated on day of travel as

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 ?

Hi,I write because I start to fill nervous about the way I subscribed our global passes and how I reserved all trains for a long trip that should take place from 12 up until the 24th April (13 days). I would therefore be really thankful if any of you could tell me whether I did things correctly, or not. In case it is important... all steps were carried out from a PC. My mobile phone is 15 years old, too slow and does not work correctly with some applications. The phone just served for validation of bank security codes, and things like that.Here below, how I proceeded:First, I did a simulation on the Interrail website, which suggested that the pass I needed was a 7 days one. I subscribed (paid) one for me and my daughter (17 years old). However, 2 days later my wife decided herself up. I therefore got a second “independent” pass (of same kind).I then proceeded with reservations. I had many problems because I had to login once and once again to be able to v

Hi, I need to make reservations for these below 2 rides. But I am not traveling with my laptop. How can I book them over the phone? One of them is tomorrow. Please guide me.  

I have booked from Paris to Frankfurt on the Ice 10.52am from Paris Est on May 30th. We now have the opportunity to meet some French friends so want to push the time back. I went in to my DB portal to change the time to 13.51pm on TVG and got the message below. Is there ever a problem getting on the train with updated reservation/ticket? NoteClose dialogueWe do not currently check whether your ticket or seat are still valid on the alternative connection.
