Eurail & Interrail Passes

Currently railing round europe on a 7 day pass largely making it up as i go.  I havent used any inbound or outbound days yet and one oprion i have is i could fly back to uk from a european city after using 5 days up.  Question is if both remaining outbound and inbound days are still unused could i use them to go to somewhere in uk?  Or somewhere in europe (say a weekend in amsterdam) or would they be lost?

I just bought the Global Pass (5 days) for a journey with 5 friends and i realize now that i had to buy all the passes for all the 6 people (me included) but i only bought my pass.Is this a problem or its better to buy separate passesIf this is a problem there is a way to solve this?

Hi,I have EuroRail Global pass.I have just made the reservation on NightJet for  Zurich to Prague for my family (2 adult , 1 youth and 1 child).My question was: Is this reservation sufficient or do I need to book a ticket also for that route using by Euroral Global Pass ? Please advise, Thanks

I expect the answer to this is “no” but …Does anyone know if there’s a way to export the data from “my trip” from a mobile pass in some kind of machine-readable form, e.g. something that can be imported into Excel?

Hi!Tomorrow I will head from Bologna to Florence and I see I can do it with Frecciarossa. I have a global pass second class and saw at the site from Seat61 that there would be a pass holder fee of €13 for that train. But after trying to book it at Raileurope, it says the railpass doesnt apply on the trip. Can somebody confirm that it will be more than €13 to reserve the train?Thanks!

I have tried to exchange global passes for new ones. I followed the procedure in 'My Account' but it looks like a refund is being processed. Have I done something wrong? 'Request exchange' option did not appear anywhere.

hiI need to get from Geneva to Montreux on the morning of Aug 6th because I have the panoramic train from Montreux to Interlaken booked for 9:34am. Originally I saw a direct train at 8:10am from Geneva to Montreux that would get us there in time for the 9:34 train. I don’t see that train anymore instead there is 7:42am train with one stop. Do train schedules change often? Or can expect this to be final?I am wondering if we should just get to Montreux the night before instead so that we are relaxed for our 9:34am scenic train? thanks

There is no UNSUBSCRIBE in your mail. It ought to be there.I want to UNSUBSCRIBE to all mail from Eurail. I can’t find it on your website. Please inform me or unsubscribe me

I’ve just seen the advertisment for the 20% discount for Interrail passes.   I went onto the site  to purchase two 2nd class 7 day in month Senior passes. I get to a page which says:How would you like to receive your Passes? One can choose between mobile and paper versions, but the paper version is the one currently ticked.  I tick “mobile app” and press “Proceed”, but it reverts to Paper. And unless I stick with the Paper version I can’t proceed..However it clearly says on the site: “Now available as a mobile Pass” Any suggestions as to what is going wrong, and what I should do? Thanks, Peter

Hi there, does anybody knows about this? My pass and all trips disappear from app - already twice when on train. I am offline generally. mostly it works but when not, I risk to be fined while I payed 850€ for the pass.. I hate the app coz it is mega complicated and does not work… thxx!

Hi if I buy a 5 day global pass, are two of those days/ journeys the ones from the UK to Europe (ie out and home)?Many thanks.

Hi. From Canada; I will be traveling in Europe on a Eurail pass. I have purchased a Eurail pass and I have downloaded the Eurail App. I was hoping to rely on occasional wifi access in Europe - I expect to have Wifi access every evening, at hotels. I do not want to pay for a mobile data package. Do I need mobile data access to board a train? Or can I simply book my ticket the day before (on my Eurail Mobile App) and then show it at the train station (without needing to use mobile data at the station)?David

I am travelling tomorrow morning in Italy . It is now 23.00hrs on Wed 29 March. I cannot add tomorrow’s journey to My Pass. It just does not appear. I have checked the train timetable , cleared the cache , re-installed the app but my journey is not showing . The Pass has been working great for the last 7 days. This is the first time I cannot add a journey. Does anybody have any ideas ? Thanks . M

I am looking to travel from London  - Armsterdam -  Paris - Geneva- Interlaken - Venice.what is the best in term of budget and time? Eurail looks expensive due to additioanl reservarion charges. Time wise, flights could be faster but again, airport, check -ins etc could make it same.Has anyone done the maths? i am finding it very confusing. Any experienced travellers input would be much appreciated.TIA

What is the difference between Global pass and Europass? Can they be used in all countries?

Hi everyone! Good to join this community. I have a question about passes that has probably been answered before, but I can’t find relevant threads. I wondered if anyone could kindly help me? I’m a dual Irish-British citizen born in London, grown up in London and living in London. I understand that I need to buy an Interrail pass, rather than a Eurail one - that’s pretty clear to me from this link: https://www.interrail.eu/en/support/interested-in-interrailing/do-i-need-an-interrail-or-eurail-pass It also says here ‘If you're a legal resident of Europe but not a citizen, we ask for your country of residence when you place an order.’ This also makes sense. However this implies that if you are a citizen of Europe, they won’t ask for

Hi There, I was wondering if anyone else has had issues purchasing Deutschland ticket  (49 euro month pass) from db? I fill out all the details, iban etc and get to the verification (verimi) and it just gets stuck in a loop. Any idea/suggestions? Thanks!

I bought a “15-day EURAIL pass”, but it is not possible to reserve only seats from Barcelona to Lauterbrunnen via the EURAIL app/website. Where can I make this seat reservation for August 1st? Thanks for any information! 

What does it mean "not in the pass network"? I guess I cannot use the pass. I just want to confirm it.

Hi all how can I reserve 2 seats from San Sebastián to Madrid on 27 July 24?we have 3 mth first class global pass tried using Eurail app but can’t reserve seats thanks jon  

We have a Scandinavian mobile flexi pass. On one travel day we will be travelling from Åndalsnes to Lillestrøm and we are contemplating popping into Oslo and back, a 10 minute trip. These trains are operated by Vy. Is the pass valid for Lillestrøm-Oslo-Lillestrøm journeys?  If so, with trains running every 10 minutes, do we need to add the specific train to each journey, there and back?  One hopes that our data on the phone will still be valid...

hi! does anyone know what are some of the hotels or other accommodation that have discounts for those who have gained the global pass?

Folks have a bit of a dilemma and , finding no real info , so I'm hoping someone can tell me..... We are Irish Citizens ,So not the Own country rule....So We have interrail passes , now let's say We go from Florence to Rome and need to return to Florence that evening....so a day trip, then the next day , let's say go from Florence to Venice ,and return back that evening.....With Florence as a possible base.....is this allowed or classified as commuting, even tho not actually commuting....??? I have seen posts online, where people were Told by train conductor this was not allowed and invalid as can't do return.....the posts seem to be a good few years old , Now I was thinking, Maybe book as singles , so using examples above, but making individual seat reservations for outbound and inbound....I hope I'm making Sense....OR DO WE NEED TO WORK IN A LOOP FORMAT, Only using any given city once , which tbh will be a logisical nightmare.....not ness those actual destinations, just using as a
