Eurail & Interrail Passes

If I purchase a 4 days of travel global pass and travel from Manchester to London on a Thursday evening and then London to Paris on the Friday morning is that ok or does my trip leaving my country have to all be on the same day? I am trying to arrive in Geneva by mid afternoon on a Friday and so need to take the early morning Eurostar to do this 

We are starting our journey toward home on a night train. The train leaves at 23:45 and arrives at Munchen at 9:22, after which we still need to take 2 trains to get home (munchen-hamburg and hamburg-copenhagen). My question is if due to the first night train arriving just before midnight means that we need to use 2 travel days to reach home. We only have 1 travel day left on the ticket, so help would be appreciated.

The InterRail website https://www.interrail.eu/en/interrail-passes/one-country-pass/ireland seems unclear as to whether Ireland passes are valid in Northern Ireland. It sttes 'The Emerald Isle is a small island of dazzling contrasts with its own soundtrack, from lively Dublin bars to rugged rocks, impressive mountain ranges, and kissing stones. Visit Belfast, Blarney, Limerick, and Waterford.'The Belfast reference clearly implies cross-border validity. However, further down it states 'Can I cross the border?​Not with this Pass, as it’s all about exploring one country from top to bottom. Want to cross the border? Go for a Global Pass.'When you click 'Learn More’, it  gives the example: 'The Pass is valid for travel only in Spain and cannot be used to travel from the Netherlands to Spain'. The i

Just boarded a train for my first trip from Paris to Lyon. Was advised by the website that I should activate my pass just before boarding my first train. Proceed through the gate to be told it needs to be activated 1 hour beforehand and that I had to pay 50 euros to be able to board the train. The train officer was extremely rude at the time and said I should have read the T&C's...

Hi there,  Just wondering when does the Eurostar tickets are usually getting opened for reservation?I see that the system only shows me the tickets available till the 9th of Dec. I’m currently planning my trip on the 27th of Dec from London to Paris btw.  Thanks in advance. Cheers 

Hi all, could you please help me to understand what are the benefits of a pass (e.g. 7 days use over 1 month) if I'd mainly plan to travel by train overnight from one city to another by mainly booking sleeping cabines (2 adults + 1 kid)? Indeed we'd plan to make very limited use of standard daily train transports. Is a pass convenient in this case? Many thanks! Steve

I booked a seat online and I don’t know how to add it to my planned trip on the app

Hi is it right that your year pass even if you buy it this now does not start till you use. Also do must you get reservations for Euro from St Pancris. Thanks in advance

Hello wonderful people,I’ve just recently purchased the Global Pass for travel in January 2024. Due to info online that says that that is peak season, I wanted to make some seat reservations to ensure I have a seat. However I can’t seem to make those reservation on the Eurail Rail Planner app even though I can see trains available on the Eurail website. Further reading says I can make seat reservations with the train company so the first train I’m catching is Eurostar from AMSTERDAM CENTRAAL (NETHERLANDS) to BRUSSEL-ZUID (BELGIUM)I have created an account with Eurostar and when I’ve selected the train that I want, where do I put my Global pass details? Thanks! Eurai

We are starting our Journey in Vienna on 22nd Dec , leaving Vienna on the 26th travelling to Salzburg on 26th then to Zurich on 28th , then to Paris on 29th, Can we reserve seats and do we use the same train all the way through?  If you could advise which train we should book on.  It would appear the timetable is still not available on the eurail website. Do you know when it will be and is it risky to wait? Many thanksRichard 

Im planing on making a trip to various countries in january. When i search for the times of the trains on the rail planner app only trains until december 9th appear. Is there a specific date when the train times for december 10th and after (specifically january) will be realeased?Thanks.

I think it very confusing.Pass validity for me means the period i want to travel.F.i. i want to travel in the month november. I activated my pass starting 1st november, why not?My first travel day will be 10th. off november. But the app takes a travel day before i used any. Why is that? All answers talk about deactivating the pass. Why should i deactivate? I just want it not to take traveldays Before the day is there!!I think it is rather confusing, and costly.How can we adjust this?

My interrail france german pass is expired without any activation.I created an account in September and also created my trip but I didn‘t actived my pass yet. I wanted to travel in November and right now, I wanted to book my trip but the rail planner app says that my pass has been expired?? I neither used nor actived it.Did anybody experienced something similar?Or does anybody has a support hotline where I can get help for reactivating my pass?Thanks!

Hello everyone, I am a student in Germany and my parents are going to visit me in Germany and some family in UK. They also want to visit Paris and maybe Switzerland.  This is a temporary itinerary They are coming from India and they arrive and depart in UK.  Day 1: Travel from London to Paris (via Eurostar)Day 2: Travel from Paris to StuttgartDay 4: Visit to Switzerland Day 7: Travel back to London (Stuttgart to Paris to London) It is  a short trip, but i have some questions. Is Eurostar covered under the Global pass? Are regional (undergroudn and metro in Germany) trains covered under this? can they travel inside the city without taking another city ticket?  As a student in Germany, can I also use the EU rail pass?  If someone knows the answers to this, please help me out. Thank you very much 

The validity of my pass starts on 9 June and runs till 8 Jul, I have not used it yet.  However it shows Travel days 3 / 4 left. How does it see I have travelled already ?  I also have not activated it yet.
