Hi, I cannot find a proper answer to which pass I have to buy. I hold a German passport but do reside outside of the EU (in Namibia): Which pass must I buy? The use of residency and nationality seems quite mixed up to me in the conditions. Thanks
Is anyone able to tell me why I am seeing this message for this train in May? I was of the understanding that we don’t need to book seats for trains in Switzerland but am unsure what to do here. Does this mean this train is already booked out? Thanks for any help!!
Al reservar asiento en Eurail me dice que hay precios disponibles. Al tratar de hacer la reserva en Italiarail no me permite agregar al carro porque los números de pases de Eurail que ingreso en el formulario me indica que nos números válidos de Pass Number, y no encuentro cuál es el problema o cómo tengo que operar para poder realizar la reserva de asiento.
Hi all, I read somewhere that direct trains out of Spain to other European countries aren’t running this year. Is that true? Im trying to get from Barcelona to Paris in may this year, but before i book a reservation, was wondering if they will actually be running.. TIA Peter
Hello,My question is about the travelling month: we want tot leave on July 31th: would that mean we have to buy two tickets, one for July and one for August? I hope you can help me getting this clear (or else we have to look for leaving on August 1th I guess).
Which trains is better to go from amsterdam to Brujas_
Hello community,We currently are planning to travel to the UK in summer. When going by train on regular tickets over there I remember there are machines for the access to the platforms. The regular ticket usually has got to be put into a slot and the turnstile would open so one can get to the platform.How does that work with the EURAIL Global Pass?Thanks Frank
Hi all,my name is Wendy. We’re going on a interrail trip this summer in august. We are with 3. My husband, me and our 9 year old son. We live in The Netherlands.

Hello,I'm trying to organise a tour of France (with a possible trip to Barcelona) in March from Berlin (where I live). There are many things I don't understand.1) If I only want to go to France from Berlin, can I take a "One Country Pass"?2) Does my trip to the first destination in France count as a travel day?3) If I want to do a day trip from one place, e.g. go to Bordeaux from Paris for the day, can I plan a return trip?4) Some destinations do not exist on the tripplanner-map (e.g. Brest in Brittany), does this mean that it is not possible to book a ticket for this destination?Thank you for your help!
Hello, can I use the interrail if I start at Schiphol, travel to Groningen by train and then take the boat to Kristiansand and then continue by train?
I am a travel agent, and I am wondering if there is a way to register with EUrail as a travel agent to make commission? If so, could I have the link please?
I am new to this game and I don’t even know what tags are. I have bought a five day pass and I want to travel to Brindisi in Italy in February I would like to take two days in daylight to see the scenery and one week later the same coming back. I hope to travel from Swansea in South Wales. Is this possible. I am on the verge of starting to get old 80 but I am determined to make it. I think it will be easier for me to book the individual trains at the stations. Does anyone think this is possible.? You have my kind regards, David shaw.
Hello, Our journey in the app and on our pass was from Amsterdam Centraal to Mainz Hbf. Our first train showed it taking us to Frankfurt where we'd have to transfer for the last leg of our journey. However, we got to Koln Hbf and were told it was the end of the line. There was a group behind us that were also under the impression that we could stay on. They asked the worker and he said we have to get off, we have to listen to the announcements, and yelled at all of us for missing the 3 announcements telling us to get off. He said to go to platform 10. We rushed over there but there was no departing train that matched anything in our app. We looked for trains heading to Frankfurt or Mainz and there was only one and it was not on platform 10. It had already departed by the time we found it. We looked at 3 different information boards and a separate app for train travel and we could not find the original information we had in the rail planner. We ended up getting tickets to a train an hou
HeyI don't know if this is new, but I think it is. Via b-europe (Thalys/Eurostar reservation page) online it is possible to book reservations for TGVs to/from Brussel for rides to Marne-la-Vallée/Chessy (Disneyland) and Brussel to Aéroport Charles de Gaulle TGV. They ask 20€ in second class and 30€ in 1st class.Via travel.b-europe.com (for trains within france) it is not possible.
Very excited to be finally going back on the Eurostar over to the continent after a few years since the pandemic had blocked what was for me a regular thing, This time as I put a surfboard under my arm it was with some nerves as I began preparing the wheelchair. As brief overview, with my physical disability I have tried to rediscover the sports I enjoyed before the onset of my disease, this have been both snow and sea related in the form of skiing and surfing. 18 months ago I got back in the water and slowly and surely found a way to get across the waves in the form of a knee surfer style. By chance I bumped into an adaptive England team coach in the water who told me there is a World Series of adaptive surfing competitions out there. So fast forward to 3 weeks ago and after competing in my first international competition in England, this was my second chance to ride some World Series competition waves comes around in Perros-Guric, Brittany, far North-west France.
