Eurail & Interrail Passes

 Hi we are planning on visiting the Vatican from bologna. We saw that there is a station Roma s pierta that’s closer to Vatican City. Will the euro global pass cover the train from Roma termini to Roma s pierta or we will need to buy a subway ticket?

Hi,We live in France, so using the pass can only leave and re-enter France one time. However we want to first visit London on the Eurostar for several days, then go to Brussels on the Eurostar. This London - Brussels train passes thru the north-east corner of France to get to Brussels, so does this constitute our re-entering France trip, even though we aren’t getting off in France? If so, do we then have to pay for the trip to return to France when we are finished travelling in the rest of Europe?Thanks for your help.

I’ve purchased an Interrail Monthly pass for my wife and I. She is German but a UK resident however, the pass says she is German resident. Does Interrail automatically mark you as a country’s resident just because of nationality? Or did I mistakenly mark her as German resident when I purchased. (The later seems unlikely but, I suppose, possible).

Hi, what are the exact rules for night trains?If I travel from Vienna to Stuttgart in March on the night train departing at 11:28 pm, and then continue by train to Bayonne (arriving at 6:28 pm): Will I have used up two travel days of an Interrail Global Pass, or only one day (because the border station between Austria and Germany is reached after midnight)?

Hello. My mom from the Philippines bought our Eurail passes. We will be travelling around Europe for the holidays.She put my residency as "Philippines". However, I have a Student Residency Permit here in Spain and reside here in the EU more than in the Philippines. • I hold a Philippine passport and a Philippine National ID which shows my home address in the Philippines.• But my Philippine passport only shows an expired Spanish Visa because I have only kept renewing my Student Residency Card in Spain. Will I encounter any problems since I have a Eurail Pass and not an Interrail?What's the best thing to do regarding my situation?

Hi, I live in Germany with a permanent residency but I am a non-EU citizen (of course with a valid non-EU passport). Can I choose to travel with Eurail pass instead of Interrail pass? I would really prefer to travel with Eurail pass as Germany’s central location and interrail pass’ inbound/outbound rule renders the interrail pass kinda useless if I want to say travel a few days to France and some days on the other side of Germany, to say Austria (unless I take some complicated route that doesn’t include journey’s in Germany). The language on eurail website creates a bit of a grey area (as it’s mentioned there that non-EU citizens who reside in the EU can ‘choose’ to buy an interrail pass). If I buy an eurail pass by providing the details of my non-EU passport, would it be fine or would I get into trouble? Has anybody been fined for such cases?  To be really honest, this inbound/outbound rule is very very inconvenient and frustrating, especially for people

Hello.I'm going to the UK in the summer with Interrail and I'm going to get a new passport, and I'd like to buy a global pass now. My question is, can I give my ID card number or current passport number when purchasing, even though I'm going to the UK, or am I out of luck and have to buy it after I get my new passport? Or can it be changed later? Or will an ID card be sufficient to prove my identity in the UK?

Hello,I’m hoping to travel from London to Bologna (Italy) in autumn 2026.  I see there’s a 25% off sale on Interrail passes, but I don’t know if it would actually be cheaper to buy individual tickets.  Because the individual tickets for next autumn aren’t on sale yet, I can’t compare prices.I would be using only high-speed services (Eurostar, TGV, and Frecciarossa) and each of them has a reservation fee for each leg.  For Eurostar it will be 70 euros for the return trip, and I think the other two train companies might have a lower fee, but I can already see that the reservation will cost over 100 euros for the return trip.  I’m probably going via France, but I’m also considering going via Switzerland.I was going to do the journey this way:  Day 1:  London to Paris (Eurostar) then Paris to Chambéry (TGV).  Overnight stay in Chambéry.  Day 2:  Chambéry to Bologna (TGV and Frecciarossa).  I have insomnia so would prefer to stay overnight in an Airbnb

Can I use my Eurail pass to travel from Paris to Fontainebleau?

Hi,Looking to buy my senior pass now while there's 25% off, but am not 60 until March next year - although plan to use it in the summer 2026.Is it possible to buy now? Im 59 at moment.Thanks

Hello - my first post here …..  I live in France and am thinking of buying the Senior 4-Day Global Pass under the current 25% discount.I will use it to travel as follows :One day will be : Paris to London and then London to ManchesterThen the return, also in one day : Manchester to London and London to ParisMy question is - can I do this or not? I will be on 2 trains in the UK twice on the same day - Lon/Mancs/Lon … but also the UK leg of the Eurostar each day ….I’m looking for a flexible ticket , that I can activate when needed anytime over the next year - this to be able to visit my elderly brother and spend a few days or up to a month with him as needed. The Interrail Global Pass seems to offer what I need - plus much more flexibility and a pleasanter journey than flying and a much better price.Thank you in advance for your adviceJulie  

I bought my 4 day travel pass on December 6th. I intend to use it January 1, 3, 6, and 9. It states that I can use it within one month. Can I use it one month within purchase date or one month within the first travel day? 

My son is planning to purchase both of our flexi rail passes and make journey bookings, all on his device. How will I gain entry to trains, and what can I show inspectors? 

If we travel from London to Selhurst on Eurail Pass, do we need to book the train or just hop on?

Hi I would like to plan our Europe trip using your website, however my Eurail pass is not showing when logged in on website. I have the app on my phone and ipad but would prefer to work from my laptop.Andy

Hi, I have booked a train from Vienna to Krakow through OBB website, with Global Pass discount and paid for the seat reservations. Trouble I am having is that the train I booked through OBB (depart Vienna 1210 on 18th December) isn't showing in the rail planner app.My question is how/what do I need to do to ensure I am able to board the train and add it to my Eurail Pass?Thanks, 

Hello 👋,I’m planning a trip to Poland this summer and one of my train is provided by die Länderbahn which is a train company but I can’t find if the train is included in the global pass or not. Can someone help me please ? 

Hello everyone, just now I was trying to book seat reservation for a train from London to Edinburgh in July. The system didn’t show any availability because July is still too far away. So I tested with an earlier date just to see how the reservation system works. I put in a random date and followed the steps by selecting a random train and a random seat type. (I didn’t really understand the differences among all the seat types) Then I clicked continue, the next thing it shows my booking is completed, and it also says on the page “you can’t amend or refund this booking”. I couldn’t find any options to cancel or delete this order as it was only for a test. Does anyone know what I can do in this situation?Thank you in advance.🙏

Hi!So, I just had a run-in with an inspector on the Deutsche Bahn which has resulted in a fine being sent to my home.I live in Germany but I'm from the UK. Recently I had to travel to the UK twice in quick succession and did the "in between" bit by Interrail, like this:- Day 1: UK- Day 2: UK -> Germany (inbound)- Day 3: Germany -> border (outbound)- Day 4: Belgium -> UKToday is day 3. The inspector told me with total confidence that I could not use my outbound journey after my inbound journey and has therefore sent a charge to my home for a ticket today. I showed him the Interrail T&Cs but he refused to accept that.I think I already know that he is wrong and so I think I should be able to appeal this. The Interrail site is pretty clear. But it's a lot of money and I'd like some peace of mind. So here are my questions:- Am I definitely in the right?- How do I go about appealing this charge?- Can

Pas d'option interail.Mon père étant français et résident en France, nous devrions avoir l'option interail.Que puis-je faire ?

Hello everyone, I hope this question has not been asked too many times - if so, I cannot find it :// My first travel day will be December 4th. From what I have read, I then have to activate my pass tomorrow, December 3rd. I have a 1-month, 5 travel day mobile pass. I have reserved seats for my last trip for January 3rd. Now I am panicking that my pass might only be valid until January 2nd, since I already activate it on December 3rd. Can anyone help me out here with telling me what my last day is? Thank you Interrail experts <3

Hi All,I and my spouse are planning a Europe trip for about 12 days covering Switzerland (6 days), Paris (3 day) and Amsterdam (2 days) with trains as primary mode of transport I am confused between which pass to buy does Euro global pass give discounts in Swiss and should it be active example I take a 4 day pass in 15 days can I keep 4 days days for Paris and Amsterdam or do I need to activate pass for days in Switzerland as well. Also outside of Switzerland bulk of the journey will be between Amsterdam - Zurich and Zurich - Paris does it make sense to buy a Euro Pass?Best Regards,Prasanna
