Help with the Pass

Why can't I get a QR code loaded into my passport?  What does "manual entry" mean?  What do the abbreviations on the ticket mean

Can I return my pass if I can't get reservations?

I would like to buy a global pass. But I can only use it if I can make certain reservations on my itinerary. But to make reservations, I need to provide a pass number.Can I buy the pass and the reservations at the same time?Or, if I have to buy a pass first, can I get a full refund if there are no available reservations?

Trip broken up

Our trip to Italy and France will be broken up by a two-week Mediterranean cruise. Is it advisable to purchase two 15-day passes, (15 days before the cruise, and 15 days after), or another pass option?

No ticket showing. App update?

 I have added some journeys to the Eurail app on my phone.  Some of these journeys did not require a reservation so I have no other evidence.  But when i go to “Show Ticket” there is no ticket showing. I find this worrying and had Ive have known the whole process was so complicated I would have flown.  At least with an airline you can see your ticket in advance.

Accidentally bought seat reservations for after my pass will expire

I will be activating my 30 day pass on April 7. I have inadvertently purchased tickets for a time period after my pass will expire. I’m assuming I won’t be able to use those tickets?

PASS SLOVENIA - CROATIA - ITALY

Hello, We want to leave with a big group (35 people) from Belgium (July 10th) to go to Slovenia. To travel in the interior of Slovenia to visit (the Vintgar gorges - lake of bled - lake of Bohinj). Then, leave from Ljubjana to go to Piran on July 21. From Piran, go to Pula on the 22nd (Croatia) and finally leave Pula on the 24th to return to Belgium. First question: does the interrail pass apply to the number of days or trips (if we travel at night for example from the 22nd at 10 PM to the 23rd at 7 AM) is it counted as 2 days or 1 trip? Second question: which pass should we take if we travel only by Interrail from Belgium to Slovenia and from Slovenia to Croatia? Last question: is it cheaper to travel within Slovenia by interrail or by other means of transportation (Flixbus, train, bus..)? Thank you for your answersÉcrire à

BeNeLux Pass if you're living in Belgium or the Netherlands

If I understood the conditions correctly the Benelux Pass is valid in all three countries only if you’re not living in one of them. On other sites (e. g. https://www.acprail.com/rail-passes/interrail/interrail-benelux) it even says that you cannot buy it at all if you’re a resident of either of the tree countries. Has this been changed recently? Anyway, if you’re a resident of NL, BE or L you are still paying the same as anyone else but are only getting travel in the two other countries. Is that correct? Considering that public transit is free in Luxemburg anyway, that does not seem to be very much of a bargain, anymore. If you are a BE or NL resident you are essentially only getting travel in the respective other country since in L it is free, anyway (unless you’re using a 1st class pass, of course). Am I getting something wrong here?

App vs Website

WE have booked a number of reservations across Europe on the interail.eu site.However, when I go to the APP where I have added the PASS numbers I cannot see any of these reservations.  We are using the same login details.Its as if there is no synchronisation between APP and website. Its very frustrating and worrying as we are supposed ti be travelling in 2 weeks.What are we doing wrong as I cannot take the computer on holiday and will be relying on the APP on my phone.

Rail Planner app + seat reservations for multiple trains on same day

Hello all. I have purchased a 5-day Eurail pass for use in May, and it is now time for me to reserve seats on certain trains that require such seat reservations.I have encountered a problem or puzzle involving booking such reservations through the Rail Planner app.The first day of travel, I must transfer between multiple trains with multiple seat reservations.The Rail Planner app consumed one of my five days for my first train trip, but now it says it will consume a second day for the second train trip, even though the second trip is still on the first day.Should I reserve the second trip or subsequent trips that day directly with the train operator, outside of the Rail Planner app? Or am I doing something else wrong?I was unable to get any help through other means, which brought me to this community forum.Thank you in advance for your help.Regards, Scott

Pass or not pass

To commemorate my 50th anniversary of going inter railing my wife and I booked a months inter railing. We have found the whole thing very complicated and the cost of reservations an unpleasant surprise especially the Eurostar. But what concerns me most is that Im not sure that I can see my PASS.  I have an email that gives me our two PASS numbers but nothing that looks like a PASS or a ticket. What do I have to show a conductor??

Mobile Pass Flexibility

I will be booking a mobile pass for my spouse and I for our upcoming trip. From what I’ve read here, both of our passes can be kept on one device. How would we go through scanned gates at stations with the one device with both of our passes on it, or would it be easier to have our individual passes on our own devices?When I am booking/reserving trips on my device do the booked trips automatically go to both passes, or do we need to make a separate booking/reservation for each of our passes?
