I’m trying to book Eurostar seat reservations back to UK for the end of our trip. We were hoping to come back from Brussels but there seems to be nothing available at all around the two weeks of 25/8/24. Have all those interrail seats already gone or do we think they’ve not been released yet?

HiWe are doing train travel across Europe from 19 Feb to 9 Mar 24.  We have bought Eurail global pass on first class. We will have at least one big suitcase 20-30kg and one carry-on baggage which we need to take with us through the travel. I would like to find out the following:Are there any locker facilities in the rail stations of Brussels, Bern and Zurich where we can keep the luggage temporarily (for few hours) If so, would that be free for those with Eurail global first class pass holders.  If not free, what would be the charges.  Would the pass holders eligible for any discounts on the fees to keep in the storage.  Are locker facilities available in the rail stations of all major cities in EuropeThanks in advanceSudar

I am a travel agent looking for info on train access with using a walker?? Are most train stations platform entrances? Will they take her walker and store it or can she keep it with her? 

If I buy the one country pass for Germany, it clearly states that you can cross certain borders to certain towns. For example you can travel from Munich to Innsbruck , or Germany to Venice, Italy. My question is, there is a train that goes from Munich to Innsbruck and I want to get off and walk around site see, and get back on the train 2 hours later and continue to Venice. Since I am technically getting off the train in Innsbruck and walking around will that invalidate the trip to Venice or will I be allowed to use the pass that way?? 

Hallo,ich habe im November von dieser 25% Aktion gebrauch gemacht und mir ein 15 Tage in 2 Monaten Ticket geholt. Die sind ja bis 1. Juni 2024 gültig. Ist es hier auch so, dass ich lediglich vor dem 1. Juni den Pass aktiviert haben muss? Also zum Beispiel ich aktiviere ihn am 25. Mai und der ist dann die 2 Monate gültig, also bis 25. Juli?Oder muss ich sozusagen Anfang April spätesten den Pass aktivieren? Viele Grüße

Hi, I heard about the high possibility of the strike on Jan 8, 2024.  Problem is that we have non-refundable tickets from Amsterdam to Frankfurt on Deutch ban on Jan. 8.  What would our choices be if the strike goes through?  It is imperative that we arrive back in Frankfurt before Jan. 9 as we have a flight back home to the US on the 10th.  We looked into buying new tickets on the 7th, but that is more than double the price of what we originally paid for.  

Hi, Im planning to interrail this summer. Im from the UK, looking to go: Belgium, norway, germany, austria and switzerland.I just want to clarify if I will need the 7day pass ( to include going from london to belgium , then from switzerland to london) or if the 5day pass will be fine ( as in, will my outbound and inbound journeys included in the ticket?) Also, the trip will be in the summer. Have far in advance would you recommend making train seat reservations?  thanks :) 

Hi,a short question to the community: I’ll travel with Snälltaget from Munich East to Malmö, starting on Jan 6th very late in the evening at 23:59.I’m using a global Pass (4 days). Anybody there who knows how many days it “costs” to take the train directly to Malmö - arrival 15:35 the next day? Germany is my home country. THX a lot Christoph

I've noticed the Eurail planner warns to arrive early for crossings between the UK/France and back. I don't see the same warnings for other crossings?  (FR/Switz, Switz/Italy etc.) What happens with those crossings or on the Night Trains? Realistically, How much time should I plan on?Thanks,Peg

Bonjour à tous le monde !Je pars pour deux mois en avril prochain, je pars de Rennes et me rends jusqu'en Italie, je souhaite découvrir Florence, Rome, Naples, Bari puis prendre le ferry jusqu'en Grèce, rejoindre Mykonos, revenir sur Athènes, découvrir l' Albanie puis le Monténégro et la Croatie !Pensez-vous que le pass interrail est valable pour ce type de voyage ? Je pourrai sinon des prendre le bus. Savez-vous si c'est compliqué de réserver des places assises dans les pays cités ?De plus, les ferry Athènes-Mykonos sont-ils compris dans le pass interrail 2 mois ?Puisque je ne peux pas prendre de train en Albanie, puis-je faire une “pause” dans mon interrail par exemple faire Mykonos-Athènes avec interrail, puis de mon côté Athènes-Tirana / Tirana - Podgorica, et reprendre des voyages à partir de Podgorica ou tout doit être fait d’affilé? Désolé c’est pas clair!!Merci à vous !!Bonjour à tous!Je pars deux mois en avril prochain, je pa

Hello everyone,I triped with interrail in 2019 and I had a paper pass for the trip.At that time I didn’t realize that it was written on the pass “When you’ve finished travelling, please send us this Pass Cover including your Pass and get a gift in return!”I am curious of what it would be but at the same time, I’d like to keep the pass as a souvenir. Anyone knows what the gift is like ? And if they still do this 4 years after my trip is over ? Thanks

Once I have a mobile pass, can it be saved on PDF or equivalent type of file and presented that way?  I don’t want to have to pay $10 every time I turn on my phone and wi fi.

We are travelling on a 22 day pass. I'm wondering about jumping on and off at towns on our routes. I know some towns arent listed as possible destinations but might be between cities .Examples:-Strasbourg to Colmar Can we jump off at (or close to) Ribeauville/Riquewihr?-Strasbourg to KoblenzWill we have access between the towns along the Rhine river like Bacharach. Would be able to reach Cochem on the Mosel river?-Interlaken Could we use it do reach Lauterbrunnen , Grindewald or Thun on our way up to Bern?Any tips would be great 😁 

We’re a family of four (2 adults, 17yo and 13 yo) who are planning on interrailling in August 24. I want to make our Eurostar seat reservations now so we can get the train we want but I was hoping there maybe a sale on pass prices in March (was hoping for a New Year one….)  and so wanted to delay buying the pass until later in the year. The raileurope website asks for a pass number when I try to book the seat reservations. Any advice?

Bonjour, je prévois de faire un tour d’Europe avec mon ami en 2024 (nous avons 21 ans). Nous avons déjà pris le Pass Global 3 mois (Pass continu) et nous pensons commencer le voyage durant le mois de Février pour le terminer durant le moi de Mai, nous sommes donc plutôt hors-saison en ce qui concerne le tourisme. L’itinéraire que nous comptons suivre ressemble à ça : Besançon - Bilbao - Porto - Lisbonne - Lagos - Séville - Madrid - Valence - Barcelone - Milan - Turin - Venise - Rome - Naples - Bari - Patras - Athènes - Kalambaka - Thesslaonique - Sofia - Bucarest - Budapest - Vienne - Prague - Berlin - Copenhague - Stockholm - Oslo - Trondheim - Bodo. Puis le retour Bodo - Besançon. Ce trajet e

Hello and Thank you all in advance.I have a 1st class, 10 day flex/global pass.Somehow...I ended up with some Business Class seat reservations. I made the reservations within the eurail app (paid extra) hoping to avoid any snafus. The tickets clearly show Business Class Seats and the correct Eurail (1st class) pass #. What should I do? Does the Eurail Pass even have Business Class passes?Thanks again.

We have just purchased a global pass and will need to travel from Penzance to London before getting the Eurostar. Will the pass be valid for what may be seen as two journeys within the UK, our country or residence?

My family and I (2 adults, 4 kids ages 10,8,7 & 4 at time of travelling) are headed to Europe mid-October to early December 2024. I am attempting to plan some travel throughout Switzerland, France & Germany avoiding many connections and for the most cost effective way. I don’t know whether to go for a Eurail global pass (10 day/2 months) or purchase individual train journeys. Any advice with the itinerary below would be greatly appreciated. Via raileurope.com (dates for travel not yet available as yet, prices based on times in March 2024) prices for 2 x adults, 4 x childrenOctober 14: Zurich - Interlakken direct $259October 24: Interlakken - Paris 1 change $550Ocotber 30: Paris - Strasborg direct $550Novemeber 30: Strasborg - Munich direct $370Total $1730Whilst this way isn’t as cost effective as 2 x adult Eurail global passes ($1414) I am unable to book the equivalent journey from Interlakken - Paris without it taking

HiIs there any promotion for global pass in 2024?

Help!  I bought 3- 10 day Global Passes for my family to visit Paris and Germany starting on January 6th!  It looks almost certain that there will be a German Rail strike starting on the 8th or 9th.  We fly into Paris on the 6th, we were planning on Paris for 2 days than-Strasbourg (reserved seat on January 8th)-Stuttgart- then heading towards Munich, using the rails to check out day trips until we fly out of Munich. I have only reserved the Paris to Strasbourg High speed trail so far.  Should I cancel the German hotels and try to reroute my Munich flight? Then go to the French countryside, Amsterdam or Switzerland.  Or rent a car and drive in Germany and hope to get some compensation back?  Right now all my German hotel reservations are refundable.  It’s only the flight from Munich to Dublin that I might lose my money on.  Are these stikes typically only a day or 2.  I’m afraid that I will only be able to use 2 days of a 10 day ticket.  But I do not want to be STRANDED my first tim

Hi Community, Looking into the EuroRail pass for 7 days, with travel from Paris to London on the Eurostar on the agenda. Is this achievable with this pass? After looking through the forums I’m no closer to understanding if this is achievable?Thanks for your help. 

Hello, I am 24 years old. I would like to purchase Eurail Global Pass. Eurail Pass Agency is selling adult passes at a lower price than youth passes, so I'm going to buy adult passes. I'm wondering if I can buy an adult pass and board the train

Bonjour,Je souhaite voyager en Norvège ; il faut 2 jours de train allez et 2 jours retour. Si je prends un pass 5 jours, cela signifie t-il que je ne peux passer qu’une journée sur place ? Les jours de voyage sont-ils uniquement les jours en train ou également les séjours sans train ?Merci de votre (vos) réponse(s).Germain
