Hi! I got the flexipass through DiscoverEu. My last possible departure date is August 31st. Is it in any way possible I can delay it one day? I mean is it possible to leave on the 1st of September instead? Or do I lose my pass if I don't leave on the 31st?

Novice travellers! Please help!My husband and I are from South-Africa and will be going to Europe to visit 6 countries to celebrate our 50th birthdays. We depart 16 March 2025 from SA to Amsterdam and return on 17 April 2025 from Paris back to SA. That gives us one month. Our itenerary will look something like this. 17-20 March in Amsterdam. The evening of the 20th I'm considering an over night train to Munich. 2 nights in Munich. Then 3 nights in Austria. From there 5 nights in Switzerland. 1 Night in Venice, 4 nights in Florence, 5 nights in Rome and 6 nights in Paris (I'm running the Paris marathon on 13 April 2025) Should we buy the one month Eurail Pass? And would that allow us to just hop on and off the trains?  

Bonjour, très grande première pour moi pour voyager en Interrail. On m'a dit qu'avec deux enfants de moins de 12 ans c'était intéressant financièrement. J'aimerais partir visiter Porto/Lisbonne du 14 au 18/19 avril prochain mais je ne comprends pas tout. 3/4 jours de pass devrait suffire. Quand je regarde le Paris Hendaye, il m'indique complet peu importe le jour ou alors je n'ai pas accès, comment est-ce possible ? Puis j'aimerais un Hendaye en train de nuit, et je n'arrive pas à aller jusqu'à Porto via l'appli, ça ne me le propose pas. Et le prix semble exorbitant (200€) ... Pouvez-vous m'aider à organiser mon voyage ? L'idée n'est pas de visiter Hendaye mais de tester les voyages en trains avec les enfants qui vont adorer, de tester le train de nuit, et donc de visiter  2/3 jours Porto et Lisbonne. L'idéal était de ne pas dépasser 1000€ de budget, je ne sais même pas si c'est possible. J'ai beaucoup de mal à comprendre quoi prendre et comment planifier/réserver. 

I am trying to use the discount benefit to buy some Disneyland tickets but at the time of entering the pass code me through the Eurorail page it tells me that the number is incorrect. Someone knows what the steps are to be able to apply the discount to the purchase.

Does anyone have any reason to believe that “Palinuro” is a frecce/italo station? This map seems to indicate it is a frecce stop between Sapri in Calabria and Vallo della Lucania in Campania, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere in Trenitalia or Italo’s system.https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/25/Mappa_della_rete_servizi_Le_Frecce_e_Italo.jpg 

I am checking if it will be possible to travel by train with my two cats. Has anyone experience with this?

I am planning to visit Windermere, Canterbury, Dover, Bath, and Chesterfield from London. I’m wondering if I can use the Eurail Pass for these trips. When I use the trip planning tool on the Eurail website to search for those cities (except for Bath), they don’t show up, so I’m not sure if it’s possible. However, all the cities appear on the Rail Planner app. Also, I’m wondering if I can access lounges if I purchase a first-class ticket.

Does anyone please know whether a France only Interrail pass is valid on SNCF trains to Mullheim from Mulhouse?

Hi, we’re planning a trip this summer and thought we’d buy a one country pass through France.  We’re wondering if Corsica is considered part of France or would we have to buy a Global pass if we wanted to cross to Corsica from Marseille?  Does anyone have any tips on train travel in Corsica?Many thanks

How far in advance can you see prices and book?  I want to work out if it’s cheaper for me to get Eurail passes or just buy individual sectors between Zurich, Salzburg, Vienna, Prague, Krakow and Berlin. Also to assess if it’s worth upgrading for business or first class seats compared to regular seats.

Hi there,We’re planning to use a global 7 day pass this summer to travel from the United Kingdom to mainland Europe. Our trip is as follows:Day 1: Lancaster UK to London (overnight in London)Day 2: London to AmsterdamDays 3 - 7: Travel in EuropeDay 8: Paris to London to Lancaster UK.I want to know:Whether the Lancaster to London outbound trip is covered by the global pass, or not, because the whole trip from Lancaster to Amsterdam is split over 2 days? Whether the Paris to Lancaster trip is covered by the global pass, because it takes place in a single day? 3. If I buy the pass now and activate it so I can plan the trip and book seat reservations, how long is it valid for? I.e. will it still be valid in July when we actually travel?Thanks so much!

Hello,I purchased an Interrail pass a few weeks ago to travel to Italy. However, I am realizing that there are a lot of additional costs. For example, we planned to travel from Brussels to Ljubljana to stay there for two days, then Ljubljana-Florence, Florence-Rome, Rome-Naples, and Naples-Amalfi.From Brussels to Ljubljana and from Ljubljana to Florence, we are offered night trains that must be booked directly through the ÖBB company. In this case, we are paying a "regular" price, and it seems there is no advantage to using the Interrail pass, if I understand correctly.Additionally, for every single journey within Italy, we are required to reserve a seat, which costs around 15 euros per person each time (whereas buses are much cheaper than train reservations via the Interrail app, around 5 euros per person).After doing the math, using the pass ultimately costs me an extra 137 euros.I wanted to check if I misunderstood something. Are my journeys actu

Hello guys, I have a 4 days travelling pass for one month. I am going to Netherland, Sweden and Germany from Bordeaux (France). For one day travel I have up to 4 trains to take (for exemple one train to go from Bordeaux (France) to Lilles (France) and then one train from Lilles to Brussels, then Brussels Rotterdam and Rotterdam Utrecht). Once I want to activate each train I have a message saying that I am using one travel day. My question is if I activate one train for my first day of travelling can I activate my other 3 trains (the same date) without using all my travelling days ? I am really confuse by this so if someone can help me that would be great ! Thanks a lot cheers :))

Background:  I am an experienced train traveler, but brand new to EurailPass and the Rail Planner app.  For a summer 2025 vacation, I have purchased Eurail Global 15-day continuous passes for my wife and myself, added them to the Rail Planner app, and associated them with a My Trip.  On the app, I found a pair of outbound and return rail journey and associated them with our Trip.Then, following the links on the app, I was directed to the Eurail website where I purchased seat reservations for those two journeys.  I received the confirmation email with attached barcoded seat reservation tickets.My question:  I can’t figure out how to associate the seat reservations with my journeys on the Trip in the app. Is that possible?  If so, how do I accomplish it?Thanks in advance for your help. —Marne 

Hi - has anyone encountered the App adding +1 Day. I am booking a short journey between Paris and Bussells that leaves on a Sunday at 9.55am but the App keeps adding it to my journey as a Saturday departure instead. Not sure how this will impact activation. The EURail website has the correct details and I have reserved a seat and received confirmation so am confident in the journey but the App will activate an incorrect travel day.Thanks for any help. 

lost my in box! How can I recover my pass order confirmation? 

I’m trying to book seats for the Eurostar from London to Amsterdam to my Partner and I but next to the train departure and arrival times it says +1 day. I know this is usually when a train runs past midnight but in this instance it does not as the train leaves London at 1100 and arrives at 1620 making for only a 4 hour train journey and it is a direct train would this end up using a second travel day or will it be fine as I don’t get off the train and change and is this just an error the rail planner app is using. The date we will be travelling is March 5th and need urgent help as we’ve had a big trip cancel on us and are now scrambling to organise everything and reserve seats to make up for what we’ve lost. Thank you in advance.

Hello, in July I would like to take the ferry from one of the Athens ports to Milos and some days later fromMilos to Paros. Currently only ferry connections with Seajet are displayed. As far as I know Seajet is not part of the Interrail Greek island pass. Can I assume that there will be more ferry connections added for the summer… maybe also with BlueStarFerries? Thanks,heike

I have received my email about DiscoverEu where they say that I have to activate my pass but the app doesn’t work. What can I do? Because is a grant for 18 travelers
