I made a reservation with OBB for tickets from Munich to Genova, and I am not sure if it is what I think it is. The printed tickets are all German, and I have translated some, and see it does say I paid with a credit card, but I don’t see where the times or train numbers are. I emailed OBB customer service, and there are ticket numbers and a QR code in what I printed, but I can’t figure out where on the ticket where it gives the info I need. I printed out a time table, but I don’t remember where that came from. I can’t find anything on the OBB sute to check a reservation, or to change a reservation. And if I remember, it gave a place to enter our Eurail pass numbers.

I can clear something up. There’s a difference between a ticket, a reservation, and a supplement!

Eurail is your ticket. But to use Eurail on the Brenner Pass route, you need to pay a €10 supplement (which you already paid. But you could also have paid this to the guard on the train on the day).

This route doesn’t have compulsory reservation. You can just turn up and take any train you like. But if you want an optional reservation you can buy that from ÖBB.

Sorry - edited to add. I misconstrued the question. Above part only applies to the Germany to Italy portion. For the domestic trains in Italy, you also need to pay €10 per train for Frecciarossa, or €3 for Intercity. Buy this from ÖBB and you save the €2 extra fee that Eurail charges.

@Hector The Nightjet was sold out for the one and only day I could use it. Except instead of saying sold out, it said unavailable. I checked on other days that I couldn’t use, and the information was all there. If seats are available now, I can change all this to the nightjet.

ÖBB does still show availabilty for the 11th and the 12th of March.

@Hektor I suggested to use HBF in munich, because if she is without a reservation there is more likely to get a seat on the train. But if she has a reservation she can use the more near München Ost.

@Hektor I am thrilled!! A few weeks ago when I struggled to book the Nightjet, i couldn’t on the day I wanted, I emailed them, and they just said it is booked. Thanks to you, I tried again just now, and got my reservations!!! Printed the ticket, I am so happy, I LOVE you. I can’t name any kids after you, but the next cat that shows up on my door step is going to be named Hektor.
