Not all destinations listed - Is Eurail workable for me

I am travelling to Europe for the first time, flying into Rome and home from London. I am considering a Eurail, first class, 10 day travel pass, valid for 2 months. The hope is to see Florence, Cinque Terre, Milan (also Lake Como) , Venice, Fiume Veneto (near Pordenone), Vienna, Prague, Munich, Zurich, Lyon, Paris and London.I started using the Eurail travel planner and found that it can’t find many of the places I want to go. I know that some of the lesser towns (e.g. Lake Como) will probably mean a separate bus trip or hire car. However I need to know where the main train lines run so I can make sure I can get to places I need to get to, or how close I can get them, especially Fiume Veneto where I have family. I thought Eurail was linked to all train lines in Europe, but I am worried that it may not be ideal for my needs.Also, I am unsure if I am better off booking every accommodation and every train trip before I leave home, or is it easy enough to book train travel and accommodatio

Refund - Current Promo

Hi - I would like to know the refund for the on-going promo. I’m planning to purchase the promo ticket (with insurance - 100% refundable) since I don’t have my Visa yet. But there’s a note that you can refund as long as its 6 months before the last activation date (Jun 1, 2024). But the 6 months is in Dec 2023. Does it mean it’s not 100% refundable? Thanks in advance!

Booking Nighttrain reservation all together in one compartment (sleeper / couchette)?

Hi together!We, 4 persons (family, two adults, two children age 15), want to book a reservation for SJ nighttrain. Is it somewhere visible at INTERRAIL booking service (not SJ) that our places are together in one compartment?As far as I know, there are 2 and 3-bed 2nd class sleepers (not couchettes). So, I assume, that we will get 2x 2-bed sleeper compartments when booking. Or could it be, that there is booked 1x 3-bed and another person into another sleeping compartment by the INTERRAIL booking system?Other possibility, the couchettes. There are 4 and 6-bed couchettes. At INTERRAIL there is again the possibility to book the option for couchette. But it is not clear, if it is a private 4-bed compartment (so no one other could be with us) or an 6-.bed compartment, where maybe two other persons could be in the compartment. How can I achieve such a 4-bed compartment via INTERRAIL or is it not possible?Thank you for your help!Bye, StephanI

Pass not valid for Paris -> Bordeaux in June 2024?

Dear All -- This summer, our family of 4 travelled from Frankfurt am Main (Hbf) (Germany) to Bordeaux St Jean (France) via Paris Montparnasse in June/July 2023 without problems. So, I am about to buy a Eurail Global Pass for us again for the 2024 summer … but looking at our travel dates (i.e., Sunday, June 09, 2024) under seat reservations, the website reports that the pass is not valid for the leg between Paris → Bordeaux (i.e., “Pass not valid. Choose a different journey within the Pass network or buy a separate ticket for this journey.). Any advice? Thanks so much in advance! Christian & Co.

activation

I have just bought interrail tickets for May 2024 two adults two kids. I want to activate passes asap in order to reserve Eurostar seats, however my children don't have passports yet (obviously they will when we travel). Is there a way to activate/reserve seats before they have passports? Worried they will all be gone by the time we receive passports!

Ticket

ich kaufe ein Ticket für jemand anders. Ich muss dazu allerdings eine, in dem Fall meine Emailadresse angeben, ich nehme, sie dient für die laufenden und aktuellen Infos für den Reisenden auch während der Reise. Jedoch muss die Emailadresse nach dem Kauf geändert werden. Geht das? Denn dann kann ich das Ticket quasi als Überraschung besorgen. Bitte um Auskunft, da der Bot eigentlich keine differenzierten Antworten hervorbringt, auch wenn die Frage umformuliert wird. LG

5 Day Gobal Eurail Pass and ferry

Confusion here: I read FREE ferry deck passage off the EURail benefits portal and booked a reservationhttps://benefitsportal.eurail.com/benefits/attica-group-greece-italy-superfast-ferries-in-cooperation-with-anek-lines/Global Pass holders are entitled to:International Lines:Free air seats or dormitories (where available) for 1st class Pass holders and free deck passage for 2nd class Pass holdersDomestic Lines:30% discount on economy class:*The 30% discount is applicable only if holders have already completed a crossing in the Adriatic Sea routes with SUPERFAST FERRIES & ANEK LINEI booked a superfast ferry without believing it would use 1 of my 5 travel days. Nationality and type of pass were corrected(I’m not GB nor Interrail) after the reservation had been created by Superfast.It says I used a discount so if this was an interrail pass I allegedly wouldn’t use a travel day. However, it’s a Global EURail pass. No response from EURail and Superfast is unable to help. Ideas?

Border railway stations (France/UK – France/Belgium)

Hi there!I live in the South of France and wish to use the remaining travel days of my Interrail Pass to go either to Belgium or the UK but I’ve already use both my inbound and outbound trips.I wonder if there is an easy way to find the most suitable rail stations at the French border so that I can split the trip to pay the French part and use the Pass for the foreign part.Many thanks in advance for your tips!

Proof of delay

Anyone experience a delay compensation request?I just discovered that the delay compensation starts @ 1 hour and i already have 3 different days of more than an hour delay. It is not clear what proof you need and what proof I can get a few days after the fact ( Does services like zugfinder count?). Does Interrail self find the delays?

Booking seat reservations on an international train from France to Spain

I’ve seen several Q’s and Q’s on / around the topic of seat reservations for RENFE trains for interrail pass holders but I thought I’d try and get a definitive answer on my specific situation. I’m arriving in Nimes, France on 4/12/23 and hope to travel to Spain on the 09:00 Nimes to Madrid service on 06/12/23. Nowhere currently am I able to book an online reservation for that specific train, only trains later in the day which aren’t suitable timings-wise as I need to get to Cordoba from Madrid that afternoon.Is my only option to call SNCF, or use another service operator (DBahn?), or is it safe (or possible) to wait until I’m in Nimes and try and book a reservation at Nimes Station. Is it unwise to leave booking (or attempting to book) the reservation to literally one / two days before travelling or should I try and book well in advance?Thanks !
