Discounts for One-Country-Pass

Hey guys,unfortunately we missed the deadline for the discount until 18th of July for the One-Country-Pass (France) for our Honeymoon in September. We saw the prices in July and calculated a lot and in the end we missed the offering - do you think we get the chance for another discount/sale in August?Or do you have any other idea about saving the 20 %? Thanks!Julia

Inbound / Outbound travel days / Night trains

Hey everyone,I'm new to the Interrail Global Pass and have a question about my outbound journey. I know there are probably similar posts out there, but I want to be absolutely sure!My plan is to take a night train from my home in Italy (let's call it point A) to Austria (point B) on August 1st. I get that only one travel day is used for this, even though I'll arrive in Austria on the 2nd.Here's where I'm unsure: I need to take two trains from my hometown to point A on the same day (August 1st). I know I can use as many trains as I want on a travel day, but should I add the night train first or the two local trains? I'm worried about messing things up since my outbound journey would have already started.Does this make sense? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!As for my inbound journey, I'll manually input:Point B (Germany) to Villach (Austria) Villach to point A (Italy) Two trains from point A to my hometownDoes that sound right?Thanks in advance!PS. seat reservation already done ;

Unexpected routes/companies where Interrail is valid

Hey,would be cool to make a collection of routes/companies where you wouldn’t expect that Interrail is valid.I am starting with:Citybahn Chemnitz: on the trams with C before the digits you can use your Interrail also on the innercity tram. ATTENTION: it is not on the tramlines valid, that use exactly the same route which are operated by CVAG. Trambahia (Cadiz): it is operated by RENFE so you can use your Interrail pass. But you should get a ticket ahead from the ticket office in Cadiz. If you are boarding at a non-manned station I don’t know how it works.Looking forward to more interesting opportunities ;-)

What to do when you miss your last connection in a border station ?

Hello everyone !On Thursday 25th. of July I will be travelling from Pisa in Italy to Genève in Switzerland via Nice and Lyon in France. I’ve booked seat reservations with trenitalia as far as the border town of Ventimgilia and should theoretically proceed on to Nice, then Lyon and Finally Geneva. However I’ve noticed that the intercity that I have booked (IC 659) from Genoa to Ventimiglia is almost constantely delayed which could be a problem for me as I have to take the 13h17 train (86042) from Venimiglia to catch my TGV (6850) in Nice to reach my destination. I could go on taking the next train from Ventimiglia but I wouldn’t go further than Lyon as I would arrive after the departure of the last train to Geneva… I have asked to trenitalia’s staff multiple times what could I do in this situation but they have always said to me that, with an interrail, they cannot pay me an hotel for the night or give me a normal ticket to continue my journey the next day (According to them, I would ha

Trip from Hamburg to Italy (7 Days)

Hi Every one, I am planning a trip from Hamburg to Italy for 7 days by booking Eurail Global Pass along with my wife and kid(5 years) in August month end.Route is like this:Hamburg → Milan → Venice → Florence → Pisa → Rome → Vatican city → HamburgI have few questions related to this ticket.Is it good idea to travel with this ticket rather than multiple Train tickets ? Will this ticket will be valid across the Local Trains,Buses,Metros, Trams and Ferrys ? If seat reservation needed , then can I book the seat through DB App or website or corresponding service provider app or web rather than booking in this app as its saying more than its service provider app.

Bonjour Encore une "difficulté" à surmonter... je parcours demain Prague Budapest.  J'ai mon billet et mon global-pass.  Mais sur l'appli il est indiqué que ce voyage n'est associé à aucun pass . Comment faire? Est-ce nécessaire ? Merci !

Online order issues on interrail.eu

When buying an Interrail pass on interrail.eu, "Plus" (23 EUR extra) is automatically added on checkout. If you don't want that, you first have to notice it and then unselect it. I'm not sure if it's allowed to add optional extras automatically but regardless of that: it is undesired. Please change that. If you click on "Continue shopping" during checkout and then return to the checkout later, then "Plus" is added back again! This is even less desirable, since you should be able to trust that your order is not changed after you've saved it.Any feedback from Eurail (@Nanja :) appreciated.

any way to export 'my trip' in machine readable form?

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?

Reserving train Bologna to Florence

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!

Exchange not refund

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.

Geneva to Montreux - schedule change?

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

Summer Promotion 20% Discount but can't get mobile pass

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

wifi or mobile data?

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

Is the Treno Gottardo covered in the Eurail GP?

Hello everyone! I’m travelling in Switzerland and Italy in early August this year, and I came across the Treno Gottardo (https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2022/may/04/rail-route-of-the-month-basel-to-locarno-the-slow-swiss-alps-classic) train which I want to take from Lucerne and Locarno. According to the Guardian article linked, it runs on a scenic old route even though its longer and takes more time, and is run by SBB.My question is this: Is travel on this train covered under the Eurail Global Pass? Also, does this have both 1st and 2nd class coaches? Any guidance on this would help me plan better!  Thanks everyone :)

Train or plane

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
