Eurail & Interrail Passes

Trying to work out if the Interrail Global Pass is valid on RENFE, specifically the Cercanías/commuter trains in the North/Northwest of Spain. Any help is appreciated.

I booked DB first class seats using my Second class pass as website have both options while booking. should i rebook, can i get a refund on the first class reservation? 

As a first-time user of the Eurail pass, I've already reserved seats through the official Bernina Express website (https://shop.rhb.ch/). I've paid 36 CHF for seat reservations by selecting the 'Eurail pass' reduction option. Interestingly, the website didn't prompt me for my Eurail pass number or any related details; it simply applied the discount Now I believe I already made the seat reservation (selected seat which I want). However, I'm uncertain whether I should also book seats through the Eurail pass website, as it seems to cost an additional 120 EUR. Could you please advise me on whether booking seats through the Eurail pass website is necessary or recommended?  

After weeks of struggling to book and make seat reservations on a two months round Europe 1st class trip for two, I am giving up as, so far, I haven’t been able to leave the UK!!! My 30 years in the travel industry has failed to help me negotiate the incredibly complex booking convolutions. I now find I can’t even negotiate a refund. I am told to log in and go to “my pass” - that option does not appear. Anyone? So disappointed…………..

Hello everyone!My husband and I will be traveling for 3 and a half months in Europe arriving by cruise on August 4th to Southampton UK. We'll travel all around the UK for 3 weeks and then we are planning on taking the Eurostar to Amsterdam and spend the next 3 months visiting the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain, Switzerland, Italy and back to Southampton by mid November. We bought the 3 months in a row Eurail Global pass but since it doesn't cover the whole time we are going to be there, I'm wondering when would be more convenient to activate it? Right after getting there and using it in the UK? (We bought first class and I read that UK is the best country to take advantage of it) or use it on time to take advantage of the 2 Eurostar trips (back and forth) I'm trying to make numbers and it seems that going from Italy to London it's going to be expensive so probably it’s wiser to use the Global pass for that trip? This will be

I have two days left on my interrail and have used bioth my inbound and outbound days to the UK.If I want to go to Paris, I understand that I have to get myself to St Pancras. But can I use my remaining day on the Eurostar. I know that I will pass UK border control before boarding the train, so technically the train is not in the UK, but what are the interrail rules? Is there a definitive answer?

We will be traveling 14 days while in Italy.  for 7 days we will be traveling the train from Cortona to Florence each day.  So we will need to have use of the pass for 14 days.  When I try to pick a pass it tells me 4 days in a month.  I want access to the trains for 12 days.  Can you still reserve seats and book train rides in advance with a Eurail Pass?Venice to Florence one dayFlorence to Cortona 8 daysCortona to Florence 8 daysCortona to Rome 3 days

Hi ! Need some help pleaseWe have 4 days on our global pass. We are going to Slovenia, by only using 2 trips, from Paris to ljubljana and then ljubljana to Paris.That means we have two more days of travelling available. And we wanted to go to Barcelona during the month our pass is activated with the 2 remaining days of our Global pass. Is it possible to do Paris - Barcelona and Barcelona- Paris , or does the pass only accept one inbound/outbound trip, so that means that we are obligated to use our 2 remaining daytrips outside of France ? Thank you ! Manon

Hi, if I use my Eurail pass to get a 25% discount on the Schlithorn - do I lose a travel day?  Also - I don’t see a Eurail discount for the Schilthorn Brunch option.  IS it not offered for that?  

Please can you help?  I keep trying to add my pass but it says over and over again, “something went wrong, please try again or contact customer service if this keeps happening” I have contacted them but have read that it can take days for them to reply.I start travelling next week so am worried! thanks

Hi! I am new to this forum and planning our first trip via train in Europe. It is very overwhelming, but I think I understand, but would like help to confirm.Here is our itinerary for the first week of Aug (family of 4)Day 1: Paris - Geneva Day 2: Geneva-Montreaux then Montreux-Interlaken (Goldenpass express) Day 3: Interlaken-Milan Day 4: Milan-VeniceI am planning on buying the Eurail 1st class flexible pass (4 days in 1 month pass)My question is: Once I buy my Eurail pass, where do I book seats for these segments? My understanding is that the Eurail site isn’t quite up to date (and doesn’t go that far out) and so seat reservations should be made directly on TGV, sncf, Trenitalia or other sites? I already booked my seats for GoldenPass express directly on gpx site. Thank you in advance!

Hello everyone I have taken interrail global pass. I have a series of doubts, please excuse me if I sound ignorant. Since I don’t live anywhere near London, I am quite new to the idea of using the rail to travel Europe.My questions:I thought the interrail pass would be valid only from the day we start using it. And yet, when I was purchasing it, I had to enter  a date in the box. Likewise I was not offered an option for email pass, I had to order a physical pass. Email would have been cheaper, but in my case, I wouldn’t lose it as well. Do you think I may have missed something and got it all wrong and ended up with a paper pass? This information would be helpful for future purchases of pass. I have gone for an interrail pass that allows me 7 days of travel within one month. I actually would like to travel to Brussels, Anrwerp, Cologne, Berlin and back, from Manchester, preferably in September. Do I need to do reservations for any of

My confirmation email for my first class global pass has disappeared. Please help! I start travelling next week.  thanks.  I imagine it is not a good idea to put my email address here?

Please can you help?  I keep trying to add my pass but it says over and over again, “something went wrong, please try again or contact customer service if this keeps happening” I start travelling next week so am worried! thanks

I bought a paper pass  some weeks ago for starting my trip in September . But now I saw that the valid date is from the 1st until the 30th of September. How can I change the the date . 

Bonjour,  j'ai effectué ma toute première réservation.  Je l'ai faite directement sur ES. On ne m'a pas demandé  mon numéro de pass et ça m'etonne. Est-ce la bonne façon de faire ? Est-ce que je devrai montrer mon pass au contrôleur ? Merci ! 

Hello, I have already purchased reservations in the Bernina express. As a global pass holder should I just book tickets using Rail Europe? Or is there a different process to get tickets for this train?Thanks 

I’m trying to reserve seats for my trip from Paris to Frankfurt.Per raileurope site that eurail linked me to, it shows no seats for all trains that afternoon while i haven’t completed checkout it seems to be bookable on the eurail site.. Actually when I click on the more info link, it shows it can only be done at the station?? What happened to reserving all online? is it because there’s no space anymore or i’m rolling the Russian roulette?Can someone tell me whether it is really all sold out?
