Seat reservations from Amsterdam to Paris

I have a Eurail Global Pass and wish to book between Amsterdam and Paris on 9th December. I have read that there are limited 10€ seat reservations, otherwise it’s 20€, but when I use the b-europe website I am only seeing 36€ fares - this is with my Eurail 2nd class Pass listed! I have tried a variety of dates to see if it’s a quota thing, but they all seem to be the same. Searches on the Eurail site also min. of approx $56 (AUD). Hoping someone can help clarify!

Going back into the country you leave from and then leave again

Hi guys, I’m from the Netherlands and now I am studying in England for 4 months. I want to go back to the Netherlands for Christmas somewhere in the lasts weeks of September. Then a week later I have to be back at school for 1 more week of lessons. After that I have to permanently return to the Netherlands. I was looking to buy a pass for three days so I can travel from UK → NL (day 1) back to UK (day 2) and then back to NL (day 3). But a friend of mine told me that the pass will be terminated when you return the country you leave from.  So my question is: Is it possible to depart from a country, then get back in that country, and then go back to your home country afterwards even if you already returned to the country you departed from?Of course this will all happen within a monthThank you so much for helping !

Wrong Birthdate listed

The Birthdates for my self and another traveller are listed wrong. I am positive I entered them correctly, but somehow they were changed?I have emailed and contacted eurail via the chat bot several times over the past few months to resolve this issue. But I have not heard or received any help.Does anyone know if having a wrong birthdate listed will affect travel? Our trip is in a few weeks.Thanks!

Home country. Does a connection count as an additional outbound journey?

Hello!My home country is the UK. If I buy the global pass, can I travel from Liverpool to Paris, then Paris back to Liverpool?I’m aware there will be a €36 charge for my seat reservation. But, just wanted to check if the above is ok?I seen somewhere that you’re allowed one outbound journey with the global pass. I will be changing at London though, so will Liverpool to Paris count as one outbound journey? Or will it be counted as two (Liverpool → London → Paris).Thanks for your help!

Eurail Pass

  HelloSo we arrived in Barcelona from Nice today. We decided to make better use of the travel day pass and go into downtown and back before midnight. We took a train out of Barcelo Sants train station. We needed to get off at the first stop. A few issues. The train numbers didn’t match up with our pass and the wickets wouldn’t recognize our QR codes, we ended up following people through. Do our passes work for those local trains?  Thx for any help.

Which suppliment do I need?

I am trying to add a trip on ICE123 from Amsterdam to Frankfurt. The app says that a supplement is needed, but links me to a page about 4 supplements, none of which apply to this trip. Is anyone able to point me in the right direction of which supplement needs to be purchased and where I can do this from? Many thanks

How can I save and remove old trips

In my app now, I have two trips, one from earlier this year and one I just returned from.I think it’s nice to save old trips, since it can be used to remember what happened, etc, but it’s also a bit more work for each new leg, since I had to choose which trip to add it to.Can I remove old trips from the app, but save the contents somewhere else (typically cloud)?  My interrail.eu account only seems to hold old passes, not the actual trips.

Nighttrain with one country pass + global pass

Hello, I am a Dutch student which is going to study in Germany. Because I'm required to do so I will be a registered resident in Germany as well as in the Netherlands. I want to use public transport often when I am in Germany so I would probably like to buy a global pass for the time being. However, I would also sometimes like to travel back to my home in the Netherlands with the European Sleeper nighttrain. Because I am registered in both countries, I would like to know if it would be possible to buy an additional Benelux Pass (as a German resident) and a Global pass (as a Dutch citizen) so that I can use my inbound/outbound trip of my global pass later? I don't know if this is practical, however, I would just like to know if it would be allowed to make a seat reservation at the European Sleeper nighttrain with a Benelux pass together with a Global pass so that I don't have to use my inbound/outbound trip yet.

Hello, Avec ma copine nous souhaitons partir aux Pays Bas du samedi 28 octobre au jeudi 2 novembre. L’idée est de partir de Nantes direction Rotterdam puis Utrecht puis Amsterdam et retour à Nantes. Je souhaitais savoir quel pass prendre ? Dois-je prendre un pass global ? Comprends-il le trajet départ et retour de Nantes ? Ou dois-je prendre un pass Benelux ?  Merci pour votre aide :)

Help!

 Hello, it is the first time that I will go to Europe and I am in real trouble, since I ventured to make my own route without knowing absolutely anything and paying attention to the places of interest of my daughter who is the one who wants to go for her birthday. Serious mistake! The thing is that I can't find dates for 2024 on any train line, apparently they are not available yet, I don't know when they will be available.  That has meant that I have no prices, dates or schedules and if I don't know which trains to take, even less so without the data 🤷 😞 I also don't know if it's convenient for me to buy the Pass or not, and even less so if I don't fully understand the difference between the Global Pass and a Country Pass! Because it says in one part that a country's pass is valid per region, I mean, then Germany's, what region is it? Or how would it serve me? Unlike the other  I have only been able to buy train tickets from Italy, (I don't know why if they are from February 2024) b

Travel on day 1 - does the pass cover any station in one's home country?

I know the pass covers one inbound and one outbound trip from the home country but does the pass cover travel from any train station in one’s home country? In other words, if I want to travel from my home town (outside London) to Paris, would it cover the part from my home town to London on the same day that I would get a connecting train from London to Paris? Thanks

Travelling from UK to Madrid & Salamanca

Hi all,I’ve never got an interrail ticket before and I’m just trying to check my understanding of the system.I’m going to Salamanca and back from Stroud in the UK. Am I right in thinking that a 4 day a month pass would get me from Stroud to Madrid, as long as I’ve reserved tickets on each service? (I’ve checked raileurope.com to verify the services exist and line up in a good way). I’m mainly asking as this seems like a cheaper way of travelling than just getting the return tickets. Is that right, or am I missing something?

Mandatory Seat Reservation for 3 Year Old

I have never done interrail/eurail before and I’m considering using it for an upcoming trip. I can’t seem to find an answer for the following (specific) scenario.Scenario: I have a 3 year old. I know she doesn’t need her own pass, and I know that I can get her the (free) pass for 4-11 year olds if I want to make a seat reservation. We want to take the train from London to Paris, and I don’t mind keeping her on my lap.Question: is seat reservation mandatory for my child on “seat reservation mandatory” train rides? Has anyone here been in this specific scenario? I’ve read a lot that seems to indicate she doesn’t need her own reservation, but nothing that explicitly says she won’t.

Final day use

I have a 4 day pass that I will be using 3 days of for a trip from the UK to Spain - and flying home. Is it possible to use the final day on the Interrail ticket, within the month, when we have returned, to travel from Manchester to London? Or must I travel out of the UK?I’d like to use it in one day if possible.
