I have reservations on TGV 9226 Zurich-Paris. we are in first class and would like to change the location of our seats (remaining in first class) so we are in the same aisle. I have an online Global pass. We are traveling in September.

First are you sure that you're not seated together ? The numbering system is weird but they really try to sit people next to each other.

Hi apologies for hijacking this thread but we are booked on the same service (other direction) in a few weeks time, we have Interrail passes and have bought our passholder reservations through the Eurail site (2nd class). I was a bit disappointed that we were allocated seats on the lower deck.

It’s worth a try, the ability and willingness of SNCF staff to be helpful varies a lot.

Please do report back to us if it has been successful or not.

Local ticket office happily did this for me earlier this year. As above, it depends on how helpful they are feeling but it should be possible.

Thank you for the information, but I am sure we are not together. Close, But not together. I would also like to get to upper level.

In that case I suspect placing together may not have been possible anymore.

To see what's possible, contact the place where you booked.

You should be able to see a seating map on sncf-connect.com during the booking process. Afterwards as said contact Eurail or wherever you booked.
