I am Eurail global pass holder.May I free use pass for S Bahn in all cities in Swiss and Germany ?

I have seen this question asked in older forums but haven’t seen a good answer regarding a transfer time of 12 minutes at Strasbourg.  We will be arriving on a TER train from Basil into Strasbourg with a 12 min transfer to the TGV INOUI going into Paris CDG.  If we miss the TGV train, the next one is about a 4 hr wait.  Are there dedicated platforms for TER and TGV trains ?  Has anyone traveled this route recently that can give me some tips ?

Goeiemiddag Interrail-community Op 16 maart 2025 organiseert ons reisinformatiecentrum Wegwijzer vzw de alternatieve reisbeurs Reismarkt in de Stadshallen in Brugge. Tijdens dat evenement inspireren we duizenden aspirant-reizigers door gesprekken met honderden ervaren reizigers en door lezingen, reportages en panelgesprekken over reizen. We zouden op onze reisbeurs heel graag een panelgesprek over Interrail organiseren, omdat we merken dat dat concept steeds meer aanslaat, maar er toch veel reizigers de stap op de trein nog niet durven te zetten, omdat ze met te veel vragen kampen. Daarom zoeken we enkele enthousiastelingen die recente ervaring hebben met Interrail-reizen, die zin hebben om daar op 16 maart in Brugge hun ervaringen over te delen tijdens een panelgesprek. Sowieso zal dat heel velen inspireren! Mocht je interesse hebben om je Interrail-ervaringen te delen tijdens Reismarkt, mag je hier gerust reageren of een m

I find using the web easier to create plans of my coming trip and prefer it to the mobile app. It seems these two ways of creating trips are not linked albeit I guess the stuff is stored against my account. Is there a way to do this - create on one and port to the other preferably web to mobile app. Also I would like to print out my planned trip but it seems that I cannot print out a planned trip in detail from the mobile app. I can send an image to my email address and then print it out but not in detail. Also, whilst not relevant here but a whinge - this community web site registering process has a poor interface  … when something is in error it clears all the fields.    All this is fairly elementary to IT savvy folk. What’s the problem!

Hi,I want to book a train from Brussels (Bruxelles-Midi) to Amsterdam on the 19th of Dec between 7:00 and 9:00 latest, with our Eurail Global pass. However there is a massive charge of €320.00 for the direct 7:53 train, for 2 adults & 2 youths.Kindly assist, how can I reserve our seats without such a charge, do I need to first stop elsewhere?Thank you 

Hi, on the direct train from Amsterdam to Cologne on the Rail Europe site there is no charge, but I can’t add the booking to reserve the seats (I assume it is because there is not a seated reservation fee to be paid). If I then go to the exact same train and journey to the Eurail site, there is a supplement charge they want to charge.Kindly assist, why is there supplement charge on Eurail site, and why can’t I add the booking on the Rail Europe site, which has no charge. With thanks 

Hi!On internet it appears me this train but it does not appears me on the interrail app. I was wondering if any of you know if it’s available. I wanted to take it the night of the 23rd of july of 2025.Thank you!!

Hello everyone, I would like to take a two-city trip, starting from Milan I would like to go to Paris, stay there three days, then from Paris go to Vienna, stay there another three days and return to Milan. It would be 3 days of travel but I don't know if I have the possibility to book direct trains or if I have to make overnight changes and then consider more travel days until I see availability. How do I decide how many travel days to put in if I don't know what trains are available?Thank you

Hello everyone, I have been given a Eurail pass for my birthday (47!) by my wife to get away from the UK for a week.  I have decided to travel through Germany for a bit of memory lane, Beginning in Cologne (flight really cheap from UK) and making my way from there to Mainz; Munich; Chur - Tirano - I really want to go on the Bernine express route - then fancy trying to fit in Venice and need to end up in Budapest on my fifth day travelling on a 5 day in one month global pass.  I have some questions I would love some advice on: Is the regional train from Chur to Tirano the same line  as the Bernine express but just not posh with big windows?  Tirano to Venice is a long old train but i really wanted to fit Venice in, however I need to be in Budapest for the end of the trip and beyond Tirano had no plans looking for good advice for 2-3 days travel between the two? I was considering the Venice to Vienna overnight train then out of ideas?  is Trieste

Hello everyone, hope you can help me! I’m departing form London to Paris on a Saturday Morning (Jan 11th), I will stay on Paris until the morning of Tuesday (14th) only to take a train to Lucerne that same day, will pass the night in Lucerne to take my last train the next day (Wednesday 15th) to Zurich and that would be the end of my train-trip. So my question is, how many days do I need to buy my eurail pass? As far as I understand, I need tu buy a 4 travel days global pass, but I’m not sure at all.  Lastly, despite it could be obvious, this is my first time in europe (therefore in european trains). What’s the difference between economy, budget and premium passes? is there a limit of luggage pieces I can carry in a budget or economy passes? considering economy and budget passes allows me to select first-class or second-class seats, it turns to me a little bit confusing. Thank you so much for your help, is much appreciated! 

Please reissue   Invoice with VAT Number.

Hello. On December 20th we will begin a family trip. On the website it says that you can reserve seats 60 or 90 days in advance, but when I enter the date it tells me that it has not yet enabled reservations for that date. We have a long route planned with Eurail and I am worried about not having information.I find the app and the website very unfriendly, no one from the company can solve anything for you, if I had known how complex it was I would not have bought the passes with this company.If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.Thank you so much.Laura

Early days planning a trip early next summer. I've hit a problem in that I am trying to find a train from Ljubljana to Sofia. All the usual websites seem to be saying that isn't possible.

Hi, I'm Leonardo and i'm 22 yrs old and i am a university student, i'm planning my interrail trip and I'd be happy to find some friends to share this experience. Since i didn't visit much european places, this is the perfect occasion. I'd prefer visiting eastern europe (i'm departing from Italy) but i'm open to suggestions, for instance it's not even a problem if i visit other places. I want to start the trip in may or at the end of july since i have to finish my exams. This is my insta if you want to write to me so we can be friends and depart together: leonardo_.nuzzi
