Customer Service for Reservations or Customer Service Number

I live in the US and am trying to book train reservations from Huela or Seville Spain to Barcelona, then to Nice, then to Portofino then to Rome. Isnt there a company that can do this for you with a fee for services rendered. Eurorail is not very straight forward for what I am trying to accomplish. Thanks.

Young Adult

Hello,I am a parent who bought a flexi pass (10 days within 2 months) for myself (adult pass) + a kid pass + young adult pass (16).Now, I am wondering, since a young adult is with me and since i’ve got a phone travel passes for each person: is it possible that young adult uses that code separatly on her phone, and do some days of travel on her own. For example if she wants to travel home sooner. Thank you.Biba SJ

In addition, DB long-distance services are not expected to run on the following routes until Tuesday:Munich – Salzburg Munich – Innsbruck Munich – Lindau/ZurichEven after the resumption of operations on the affected routes, it is likely that limited train service will be possible due to the major weather-related restrictions.

We suggest checking the DB timetable shortly before the departure of your planned journey for up-to-date information.

We don't want to miss anything "unmissable"

We’re after a little further help planning our first, and likely last, trip to Europe in April/May, 48 days, flying into Rome and out of London. Because we’re in our mid 60’s, we need fewer stops, longer stays. We’ve purchased a 15-travel-day Eurail pass and already had some incredibly valuable advice from this web site, and we’re just trying to make sure our plan is sensible & we’re not missing something “unmissable”.We love the old architecture of Europe, mountains, lakes, scenery and wildlife, not so much the beach scene. The places on our “must see” list are as follows, listed in the order we are thinking about traveling:Tuscany,Lake Como.The Swiss alps – recommended was the Bernina & Albula railways between Tirano and Chur.Venice.Pordenone – I have family there so it’s 5 nights takenVienna.Zurich.The road from Dijon to the outskirts of Paris, which we hope to drive. I can make all the above work, but it’s a messy zig zag Como to Chur to Tirano to Venice, and I am not sur

Lyon - Barcelona 22 September 2023

Hi 😀I have interrail global pass, and want to like to do a reservation for AVI 9742 from LYON PART DIEU (2:30pm) - Barcelona Sants (7:32pm). I get over the interrail seat reservation this error message: “It seems no price offer is available right now. It is possible that all pass holder seats are sold out. Please check 'More information' and try other ways to book this seat reservation, or buy a separate full fare ticket to board. You need to buy a seat reservation to board.”So i called SNCF and they said to me, this train doesn’t exist, so it’s an failure from interrail website. Could somebody confirm that to me? That i would look after a different connection. More background information why this train: So I will start the trip in Munich, and want to be before 9pm in Barcelona. so I found the connection (5am start in munich - 7:32pm arrival in barcelona) Thanks for you help!

Interrail France Germany Pass - Travel in Germany

Hey there,I would like to travel from Cologne to Paris this Friday with my Interrail France Germany Pass.I've already read here in the forum that I can't travel directly from Cologne to Paris because the train goes through Belgium and that's not included in my pass. I would like to make sure that I have understood everything correctly:If I take the ICE from Cologne to Frankfurt, from Frankfurt to Karlsruhe and from there to Paris, is that ok? The journey still takes place in one day.And another question: Do I still have to reserve a seat on the ICE from Karlsruhe? It's a German train, but it goes through France, so I'm not sure.I'm a bit scared of this, as it says everywhere that you can't travel through your own country with the Interrail France Germany Pass. But I have to do it to get to France at all, don't I?Thank you very much for your help and best regards!
