travel day

Hi, do I need to add something for the 29th? I was in assumption that this trip from Prague to Zurich would take up 2 travel days as it crosses 24:00. Without adding anything on 29th leaves me 6/7 travel days. Although I plan to take trains to Lucerne/ Titlis on 29th so either ways that will take up that day I guess?? Please let me know thanks.

about pass

Hi, I will be travelling to Switzerland in about 10 days or so. I am planning to visit France also. And also I will be travelling within Switzerland city to city. I'll be staying in Switzerland about a week. So what kind of pass should I purchase? And does Interrail pass is valid within Switzerland ( from Bern to Interlaken or from Basel to Geneva)? Thanks.

Hello Everyone,We just reserved tickets on Trenitalia, we are a family of 4, two kids 3 and 6. We got reserved seats in different coaches and far away from each other. I don’t get how they can separate us especially when we have kids. What can I do in this instance?

Plan trip before purchase?

How do people plan their trip in advance? I’d like to see times and total cost before committing to buying two passes, but that seems only possible *after* purchase. What am I missing?

Hotels in Italy, Wien minor

Hello guys, does anyone know any hotels where there is a code to enter, that is, there is no reception? in Italy, or for example Vienna, I know that there are options even with the key falling out of a special machine, you enter the code that you receive on booking. It’s just that I’m only 16 years old and I think without a copy of my parents’ passport and any signatures, they won’t rent the hotel to me, but entering with a code will save me.

zuschlag German rail pass

Good morning, I am traveling from Bologna to Aachen on the Rail-jet (Bologna-Monaco via Brennero) with the German rail pass. I had confirmation from Trenord staff that I should not pay the 10€ supplement due to the nature of German rail pass itself, but it seems like this information is unknown to most people, including Austrian staff, since many times, during previous trips, they asked me to pay it. Is there someone who could tell me where to find more informations about the 10€ zuschlag and German rail pass?Thanks

PRAGUE TO ZURICH 00:40 TO 13:20

HI COMMUNITY, I am trying to book Prague to Zurich from 00:40 to 13:20 train with 2 lay overs. The website says I need seat reservations for the first 2 trains but it does not show/allow prices to reserve it for. How do I go about it? 2nd questions, for the 3rd train from SALZBURG HBF to ZUERICH HB it says tickets are recommended but not required with a price. Should I get these optional tickets?
