2025 swiss and Italian trip

Hi, I’d really appreciate any advice.  I am wanting tobook a trip as a surprise for my husband in April 2025  The plan is to fly into Milan, get a train from Milan to Brig, then the Glacier from Brig to Chur, the Bernini from Chur to Tirano, and then a train from Tirano to Milan  with an over night stop off around Lake Como along  the way.  There will also be an overnight in Brig and Tirano. Can I buy an 5 day Global Interrail to cover all the trips 1st class? (Appreciate till need to pay reservation for Bernini and Glacier).  I’m also concerned about availability - I can book now through a rail holiday company who will bespoke the trip and reserve all seats now but will charge handsomely for it and I feel I can save £700 doing it myself but want to make sure I’m doing it all properly!! There will be 2 adults and one child travelling so I think child age 7 will be free. many thanks for your time!

Pass Cover Number generator

HiA few days ago I purchase a one-country (France) Eurail pass.I used this link below to create a pass cover https://www.eurail.com/en/book-reservations#/generatePassCoverNumberhowever when I tried to use it on this page to purchase 3 seat reservations, it didn’t work for me. Also I’ve tried to generate a new pass cover #, it provided one but again, still I couldn’t proceed with the purchase.Luckily I had 2 other travellers so I used one of their pass ref# to generate a pass cover # and managed to use it for the purchase. (I used this pass cover # in 3 boxes on the online form) Has anyone encountered such issues? Should I be concerned?

Help! Bought Rail Europe seat reservation & chose Eurail Global Pass 2nd class

HiWith the help of fellow Eurail community members, I was able to purchase seat reservation for May 11 CDG to Strasbourg. I couldn’t find Eurail France pass 2nd class, so I chose Eurail Global Pass 2nd class and bought 3 seat reservations.Help Rail Europe replied with the following: Please note that you have a single country pass, due to which you won't be able to book the seat reservation on our website, as we do not have the option to add a single country pass currently on our website.  Is it true that I can’t purchase seat reservation from Rail Europe with my Eurail France pass 2nd class?Does anyone know how refund works with Rail Europe? [I’ve since found the cancellation option inside the app and have requested that.]Please help!Thank you

Innsbruck to Verona on a one country (Germany) pass

Hello, I know that a Germany one country rail pass will enable me to go from, say, Munich to Innsbruck or Munich-Innsbruck-Verona. But if, after spending some days Innsbruck, I travel from Innsbruck to Verona, will this qualify as one my days with a Germany one country pass?

SNCF Connect app - short times for connection?

On our last leg of our trip, we will be staying in Colmar, France and then heading to Paris. We will have to take a train from Colmar to Strasbourg, and then catch a high speed from Strasbourg over to Paris. My initial thoughts when researching these separately was:Catch the 6:44AM to 7:25 AM from Colmar to Strasbourg, then the 7:49am to 9:35am from Strasbourg to Paris allowing us 24 minutes for the connection.But when I plug Colmar to Strasbourg into the SNCF Connect app to try to book it all together, it offers:7:06AM to 7:39AM from Colmar to Strasbourg, then the 7:49am to 9:35am from Strasbourg to Paris allowing us 10 minutes for the connection.This seems like a bad option since it really isn’t allowing for any room for error or delay. Should I just book separately? Or is the app normally spot-on for what it suggests for a multi-stop journey?

Trouble finding routes

I am traveling early July from Bern, Germany to Milan, Italy. Map shows there is a main train but every time I click on a search it says none are available. How do I find one. The search makes me put in an exact date and time to search. Is there a way to search all routes between the cities and times available?

from Budapest to Sofia :)

Hey everyone! I am studying two options to go to Sofia:1- with Interrail - they propose to go firstly to Craiova in Romania, and wait 2h (from 5 to 7am): is the train station for a single woman? Then take a train to Sofia. 2- taking a direct bus - it lasts one day but it costs 77€ with flix bus. But it doesn’t seem to be covered by Interrail what is the best solution? is the train by night from Budapest to Craiova comfortable and safe? As the train station?  thanks !!

No Eurostar a weekend in April 2024 from Amsterdam to Brussels?

I've never used Eurostar before, so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious, but I'm trying to book a ticket from Amsterdam to Brussels over a weekend in April and the dates are greyed out and it says "Not available" under all trains. I can't find anything about work being done or anything that might be the cause to this... any ideas? Are all the tickets sold out?If I can't get a direct train from Amsterdam to Brussels via Eurostar, are there other alternatives that won't take a ton of time?

reservation problem after reactivating my pass

I deactivated my pass yesterday as I want to change the starting date of the pass. After the deactivation, I reactivated it again and renewed the starting day as 7/2/2024. However, when I want to make a seat reservation for the train on 7/2/2024, the sentence “Your Pass isn’t valid on this date” appears. May I know how to deal with this problem? Thank you so much!

Question about supplements

Hi:I recently purchased a second class, senior global Eurail pass. My trip begins at the beginning of March. It seems like there are a LOT of supplements that I was unaware of when I bought that pass. I am starting my journey in London, so I figured there would be a supplement for the Eurostar from the UK to Brussels, but I guess there is also one to go from Bruges (where I’ll be staying for 2 nights) to Paris, as well? And from Paris to Lisbon? And from Lisbon to Madrid? It seems like every train I want to ride requires a supplementary fee. Is there any way around this? Those fees will add up fast!!

Eurail App Reservation Fees

I'm flying in to Sofia and using up a 15 DayDay 1 Sofia to Bucharest no problems , then as I progress North it's asking for a Fee , if I choose no reservations my choices dwindle to nothing , I should surely be able to progress in  Eastern Europe just by hopping on and showing my Valid pass in the App, Bucharest to Clug comes in at 12 Euro , the app seems to be throttling me very slowly if I choose no reservations.Any body had previous experiences through Romania Hungary Slovakia with the Valid Pass on the App.Thanks in advance from Chris
