My wife and I are inexperienced rail travelers and will be taking the train from Nice to Zurich on April 24.  Two portions of the trip (Nice Ville to Ventimiglia & Milano Centrale to Lugano) show Open Seating.  Do we just show up that day with our Global Pass to access these portions of the trip?  We have tickets for the other parts of the trip.  

Hi, we are trying to plan to travel to Paris from Scotland as it is a long way we would like to stop in Milton Keynes for a day to break up the journey.That would mess up our outbound journey, is there a way round it as travel by train is very expensive in the UK.

Good morning,I’m a little confused about my Eurostar booking. I had an email yesterday saying:“We’ve had to make some changes to the timings of your Eurostar journey 9148 on Friday 14 August to Lille Europe  due to engineering works.Your train will now be leaving later from London St Pancras Int'l at 18:34 and will arrive in Lille Europe at 21:06.” However, I can see that my original train is still running (the 17.04) and you can even still buy tickets for it. I’d much rather be on this train than the later one. Does anyone know what this is about? I’ve contacted them via their form but it looks like it can take a while for them to respond (up to 28 days). Thank you.

I do have a FIRST CLASS PASS, do i need to book a seat resertivation for PANORAMIC CAR INNSBRUCK? (Its said : seat resertivation optional)

Hello again everyone!Follow up question - Eurail Global Pass I was trying to book seat reservation from Milan to Lucerne. I followed the steps that "themaninseat61" provided using the Rail Europe site but I'm still being charged the Full seat price and I'm not getting an option to purchase. I also tried the Trenitalia and ÖBB sites and the same thing, I'm being charged for the Full ticket seat price. What am I doing wrong? 🙏Please help!Thank you so much!

Hello experienced travellers,starting in Brittany, I am planning a travel day to Munich. The easiest way seems through Paris est - Stuttgart.As I am aware of the DB train delays, I checked the punctuality of the train I’d like to takehttps://www.zugfinder.net/en/train-ICE_9573Regardless of the delays, 2 of the last 3 days are tagged “destination not reached”. Is there a way to have more information (“one-time” problem or repeating risk, where the train stopped, what was the advice to end the journey) ?Better, is there a more reliable route Rennes - Munich ?Thanks for any information and advice.

Can I download/active a single pass to two separate phones?

Hello! We are looking to purchase the interrail plus pass (beta) which include most seat reservation costs. That is 29/3 and we want to travel in August however it says the pass will need to be activated within 3 months of purchase. Does this mean we need to book the seats and travel in August within 3 months or does it mean we need to travel within 3 months.  AlsoHas anyone used the plus pass with seat reservation costs covered and is it worth it? Thanks! ☺️

Hi everyone! I’m trying to book couchettes for 4 people on the overnight train Paris-Cerbere but when I try to book with interrail. There’s two option both at 88 euros and they don’t specify which one is the seated option and which one is the couchette option. Could you help me please? Thanks xxx

Hello,I use public transportation in Amsterdam with Eurail Pass?

I have tried to book seat reservations on ACP Rail.  Every time I try to pay it gets refused.  Even if my card provider has confirmed and approved payment.  Totally mystified

Hello. I am trying to plan travel from Euston London to Liverpool Lime Street. The EURail trip planner was unable to reserve my seats for me, so I am trying to do it myself. The ACP website says that “this product is not available in your region” when I try to reserve the trip from London Euston to Liverpool Lime Street. Should I try to find another way there, another way to get the seat reservation, or should I simply try to board when I actually am at the train? My trip is planned for May, and I am worried that the train will be full, and that I will be unable to board. Any thoughts? Thank you for your help.

Ich möchte gerne wissen, wie viel es kosten würde, ein Ticket 2. Klasse vom Bahnhof ROMA TERMINI zum Bahnhof PARIS GARE DE EST zu buchen.

Hello, all answers from years Ago - ist it possible from not on undtil end of June?

Ich fahre nach Ostern nach Italien und nutze einen 4-Tage-Global Pass.Der ursprüngliche Plan war:07.04.

(Salzburg 07:01) - München 09:29 / 11:12 - Göttingen 14:45 / 15:06 - Braunschweig 15:59 (Tag 4 / inbound)Nun hat die DB netterweise im Februar bekannt gegeben, dass die Tageszüge zwischen Karlsruhe und Basel nicht nutzbar sind (SEV mit 2 Stunden längerer Fahrzeit oder mit 3 weiteren Umstiegen über Strasbourg - Mulhouse nach Basel), sodass eine Fahrt an einem Tag unmöglich wurde. Ich habe daraufhin den NJ von Hannover nach Zürich gebucht, und von dort nach Mailand (Abfahrt Hannover 00:30, also immer noch Tag 1 / outbound)Und gestern - 9 Tage vor Reisedatum - bekomme ich von den ÖBB eine knappe Email mit dem Hinweis, dass auch dieser Nightjet ausfällt.

We’re excited to introduce our newest moderators to the community!Some of them may already be familiar faces, while others are joining us for the first time — but each of them is here to help guide conversations, support members, and keep our community welcoming and engaging.To introduce themselves, we asked each moderator to share a memorable travel story that started with a train delay.Here’s what they shared:​@Warren A train delay in Germany once forced a last-minute change of plans, which unexpectedly turned into a much better alternative.​@Camilo. My Eurostar from Paris to Rotterdam was heavily delayed due to a storm, but the experience turned out surprisingly positive. We received free food, and the staff even arranged and paid for my taxi home. Tip: if you’re stuck, always ask about taxi options. They can often organise one, but you need to request it.​@St Kristoffer During a group trip, my train was delayed in Paris, so I decided to explore the station. That’s when I tasted mac

Hello. I plan to travel from Amsterdam to Spain and it's approximately 23h. In this case, if the day I leave Amsterdam is my last day of pass, would you let me do the transfers the next day to my final destination or do I need two days of pass? Keeping in mind that on the day of departure I would activate and reserve mandatory seats and use the planned route.

Hi,I created several trips on my PC browser. One of the trips I used for purchasing reservations, let’s call it “trip 3”.But when I go to “plan your trip” in my browser, trip 1 opens. I can’t find a way to open and change any of the other trips. When I go to my profile, I find a list of my planned trips, but trip 1 is missing, and I can’t find a way to open or edit trip 2 or 3, I can only edit certain things like fellow travellers or the name of the trip.can somone help me to get that sorted out? thanks

I am trying to connect a trip to my passWhen doing so I am exclusivley linked to my last trip (under my trips), which is still shown as active (I could not complete the trip as planned because my train through trasbourg was cancelled and I had to go through Paris insteadI presume that the still active trip is the cause of my problem. When I want to delete the active trip under my trips I get the message “can not cancel an active trip (kann nicht storniert werden)”What can I do   

Hi, I'm not really sure if this is how you use this site so forgive me if I'm “ute och cyklar” as we say in Sweden ( “out biking” when someone is extremely unaware/wrong). When I was 8 (now I’m 19 turned 6 days ago happy birthday to me yay :D) my amazing parents took me on a trip through Europe, we went to many different countries but I fell in LOVE with cochem. It is the one place i til this day think about and miss. I have skimmed through recommendations and such but someone know any/ how to find any well priced (low) hostels/ living places there? :D (sorry if this is not what I am suppoesed to ask lol :D)

Hi there, I bought a global plus pass 3 months ago and I am using it now. I’m not very good booking seat reservations, but LNER  have been great and have helped me. I just booked seat selection via the Italy website, but I wanted to use one of my credits, i have two left. I used one for the Eurostar, but I can’t remember how i did it. Can someone please help me, explain how to use my credit, i ended up paying 65 Euro for seat selection and I want to use up my two credits left. I hope this makes sense. I only have my mobile phone now, last time (for the Eurostar) I think I used a computer to book. thanks
