Hello!! During the day, if I change several times of train, it’s only one day of my Eurail pass?
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much
If I travel by train to Luxembourg and than fly to Vienna, can I take a train from Vienna to Venice? Or do I have to travel continuously lets say from Luxembourg to Vienna and Venice? Thanks
Sure it's not a problem to fly inbetween. On a pass day (00:00 - 23:59) you can board as many trains as you'd like.
If you'd like to avoid flying there are good night trains from Paris/Strasbourg (not daily), Brussels/Liège or Koblenz (departure 23:46) to Vienna. One pass day used since only the departure day counts. You have to pay accommodation : about 15€ for a seat, 30-40€ for a couchette or more for a private sleeper -> cheaper than a hotel night.

Hi I would like to ask, due to I will be start travel interstate in UK on 24/12, 26/12 will travel to Paris, 31/12 will travel to Interlaken and lastly 2/1 will be travel to Geneva. Should I purchase which kind of 5 days within 1 month Global pass or 15 days in a row continuous passes ?
A group of 5 friends are traveling from USA to Paris in October. We have never been to any of the places we are going to and just trying to figure out best way to do transportation. We will leave Paris by Train and will be using the train for 9 days.
We want to take the train from Paris (9 hr) to Venice where we go through the Alps, change trains at Milan. From Venice we go to Cortona (Tuscany area) and stay a week. We will be taking day trips by train from Cortona to many cities mainly Pisa, Florence, Cinque Terre and a few others. Then we ill take the train on the last day to Rome. Trying to figure out if this pass would work for us and be worth it. Will it cover the trains we need?
Thank you for your input.

I don't think the pass will be good value as you need to add reservations on French and Italian high-speed trains, extra costs which quickly add up.
The direct train from Paris to Milan does not run at the moment due to a landslide. The line shouldn't reopen until late 2024. There is a replacement bus for part of the journey but it means a 11pm arrival in Milan! Better to travel via Switzerland, it's quite scenic too.
Most timetables for October aren't published yet and tickets go on sale around 3 months in advance. Book in advance high-speed trains for the best fares (yield management like air fares). On the other hand tegional train tickets (for the day trips in Tuscany for example) have a fixed price and can be bought at any point.
Btw October is a great time to visit Italy :)
If I reserve a seat now and change my mind on date of travel, can I change my time or date of travel and use the reservation seat on my original schedule?

That depends on which train it is and where you book your reservation.
Optional reservations can often not be changed or cancelled (except when booked via cd.cz); for mandatory reservations it depends.
que costo de reserva tiene el tren madrid paris? y Paris Venecia?
There is no direct Madrid-Paris and no direct Paris-Venice train.
You can do Madrid-Barcelona and then Barcelona-Paris. Would be about 45 euro for 2nd class reservations.
Cheaper to take the Madrid-Marseille AVE for 10 euro and then from Marseille to Paris for 10-20 euro.
For Paris-Venice different routes with different costs of reservations are possible. In cheapest case you can do it for free, but that will take more than one day. So I guess you will pay minimum 20 euro for reservations.
Also possible to do Madrid - San Sebastian - Hendaye - Paris for around 25€.

That depends on which train you booked (route, date, departure time) and where you booked it.
Hello - my Mom, sister and I are taking a trip to Europe and we will be the train system quite a bit. I reserved seats for us on several trips. I am trying to go back and write down all the details but it only shows the agenda for trips we reserved seats for. How do I find the trains we will be taking? For example we are taking a train from London to Paris and then a little later that day a train from Paris to Lucerne. I am a little worried I am not seeing all the train switches and such. We will also be taking a train from Lucerne to Munich. Please help! Thank you - Wendy

What do you mean by "it” here? If you mean the Eurail website, then that's normal. You'll only see any reservations you booked there. It's advisable to book reservations elsewhere, see below.

In general, check timetables on the operators’ own websites or apps. For international planning, bahn.de or the DB Navigator app is a good choice.
London-Paris: eurostar.com
Paris-Lucerne (and for Switzerland in general): sbb.ch
Lucerne-Munich: sbb.ch or bahn.de

I was working through the eurail websites to do the bookings and it seems a bit clunky. I also had to change a route and it would not allowing me to get a refund. I was just trying to purchase a different route.

It is a bit clunky and notorious for some inexplicable errors that sometimes pop up. And more expensive than elsewhere.
Whether a reservation is refundable or changeable depends on the train company.
