Hi,I have a 4 day pass. One of these days is used for the outbound and then 2 days travelling outside my home country. Can I use the last day to only travel inside my home country (so leave from a city that’s in my home country and only take trains inside my home country)?Thanks in advance,Elise

Bonjour tout le monde, Mon départ est imminent pour un petit tour d'Europe en train mais j'avais une question, j'ai effectué une réservation de place assise sur le site Interrail pour un TGV SNCF afin de quitter le territoire français. Mais cela me dit d'imprimer la réservation. Est-ce obligatoire d'avoir la version papier ? Ce qui m'amène à une deuxième question : dois-je prévoir de réserver ma place assise pour le retour en France et d'imprimer cette deuxième réservation avant de partir ou bien j'aurais la possibilité de présenter le QR code numérique ? (Je ne sais pas encore par quel pays passer pour mon trajet retour) Merci beaucoup pour votre aide  

I have some work in Kongsburg (near Oslo) on 4th July. I’d like to do all the travel by train. I have a family in Utrecht (en route nearly). So this would require leaving home in Welwyn Garden on 2nd July, staying with family in Utrecht and then on 3rd doing the Utrecht to Kongburg larger 2nd half of the journey. Returning on 5th with hopefully everything in reverse. Would buying some kind of pass enable a fare reduction ?

If I have entered a longer journey with several changes in the mobile app: One of the trains is late and I cannot catch the following trains. Do I then have to put together a new trip or can I take other trains (no reservations) with the notice of the delay without having to re-enter everything?Or, optionally, can I immediately insert several trains as a ticket whose times overlap?

Hello Interrailers,I have planned to visit Paris by the end of this week or the subsequent week for a few days and wanted to know if there is somebody also visiting Paris at this time?What I want to do / see beside the city‘s highlights I will plan shortly before moving to Paris. It would be nice to have a good company or simply spending some interesting time together - in visiting places, having a drink or good conversations.Looking forward to hear from you :).  Regards,Freddy  

Worrying so much with horror stories of app, I’m greatly considering changing to paper ticket for trip in July with teenage daughters. I’m finding it all very confusing.Thoughts on changing please? many thanks , Melanie 

I’m taking the Ankara-Kars train in July, then heading to Tblisi. Are there currently buses running from Kars to Tblisi direct, or do I have to go north via Batumi?

I’ve written a couple of times to them over the years and I’ve never actually had a response. Once trying to claim a delay repayment and once recently about a booking query. Neither time did I actually get anything back. Same with DB. Do they exist, can you get a response? Do they just ignore English!?I don’t think much of the train companies in the UK, but one thing we do have is delay repay which does work really well.

Hello, As suggested by experts, for Caledonian sleeper journey from Edinburgh to London Euston, we have to add the journey manually with time as 00.40 CET, But I don't see any option to add manually now.Also, I can see 2 trains journey by Rail planner starting at 23.40, which one to add and how to add? Are both Caledonian sleeper?1) Edinburgh (23.40) -->(00.11) Carstairs (00.20) -->(6.40)Watford (6.53)-->(7.09)London Euston2.)Edinburgh (23.40) -->(00.11) Carstairs (00.20) -->(7.15)London Euston And below screenshot showing no option to add manually, add to journey redirects to planner page.TIA

I thought that there were 2 international ferry crossings included in the 6 day pass. One in and one out and that they were free. But when I try to book there is no option to pick the 6 Day Greek Ferry pass just the Interrail global pass. Can anyone let me know whether that are free or just discounted and how to book if there is no option. Many thanks

Hi, I hope someone can help. I am buying an Interrail Greek Ferry Pass along with my Interrail Global Pass and in looking at how to book an international ferry to Greece I tried to book as a senior as I am 60 and that is the pass I have. On the island hopping it is fine as the checkbox is 11-99 but when I book the international leg of the journey it will not let me use my pass unless I check the 26-59 age group. I think you get a reduction as a senior over 60 anyway so this might be the reason. But I want to know if it is OK to check the 26-59 years box so I can use my pass even though I am 60. I don’t want to buy it and then find out I cannot use it on the international leg. Hope this makes sense and Thanks. 

Hello wonderful people!I snagged a pass ticket last year but haven't used it yet. I heard I gotta activate it before June 1st. Sound about right?My main query is: Can I use it in the fall? Say, in October? Or am I stuck with summer travel only if I activate it now?Thanks a bunch for any tips or advice you've got!

Hi everyone! I have tickets on the NJ469 next week (16/05) from Paris Est to Salzburg. Short version: one customer representative told me the train is not leaving from Paris, but Strasbourg because of construction work; another told me that the train was not modified and would still be leaving from Paris. Does anyone have more information about this train? This is the long version:Initially, the train was supposed to leave at 19:12 from Paris Est. However, on 25/04 we received a (somewhat cryptic) email from ÖBB (“Information zu Ihrer Verbindung”) telling us that “Der Fahrplan Ihrer Verbindung von Paris Est (16.05.2024 19:12) nach Salzburg Hbf hat sich geändert” (i.e. there have been modifications to our train).Looking at the online timetables, it appears that NJ469 is no longer leaving from Paris, but from Strasbourg because of construction work. Indeed, on the nightjet.com website, one can find this message: “NJ 469: Due to construction work, this train cannot run between Paris Est a

Hello, I am trying to book a private two bed-compartment on the Istria Express train on 29.06.2024 at 21:00 from Budapest to Ljubljana on https://jegy.mav.hu/, using my Interrail Global Pass. When I tried to book, the price was for the whole ticket which I thought was strange considering I entered that I had a rail pass. I contacted MÁV-START and they said: "Unfortunately, the supplementary placement reservation with EuRail/InterRail Pass currently does not work for that international route, so you are not able to buy it from the MÁV-START's online purchase system. You can only buy it in person at any international ticket office (where you have to show your EuRail /InterRail pass)." Is in-person at Budapest station the only way that I can book this train? Thanks

Hello. We have been using the EURAIL pass for the past month and have enjoyed the experience immensely. I have used this forum many times and have found the advice and feedback to be outstanding. The EURAIL community is exceptional. I now seek some advice regarding a day tour in Beaune. We will travel from Annecy to Paris via Beaune. We would like to experience a Chateau & tasting tour and hope that the community can offer some advice on a worthwhile experience. Thank you. 

Hi all, I will do an Interrail trip in the middle of june and i have difficulties to finish my itinerary... I will take a 7 days Global pass. I want to do Germany, Czech republic, Austria, Hungary and Slovakia but i can't decide myself for arrange the order of destinations...  For the return trip to France I do not know in which city I stop a few days then return to Montpellier without having a too long trip... What are your suggestions? Did someone know what are the cheapest cities in central Europe?  The prices of hostels seem quite high, which also pushes me to review my itinerary I know that my question is a bit broad but i'm a bit lost 😅Thanks in advance 😊

Hello, i am travelling through Spain, France and Italy in August and i bought a 7 days pass. In Total we are driving 8 times with a train, so i need to book one Trip normally without the Pass in cash or by card. So how do i book this one trip and can i just do it in between my pass? For example the 3rd trip by train from Malaga to Granada is the one i book without my Pass because it is the cheapest. How do i handle this correctly? Should i just create my Interrail Trip on the Planner app withouth Malaga?

Hi, is there any way to add the interrail discount on the nightjet site when using an iPhone or an iPad? The discount list just disappears when you click it. I have tried with several browsers. I know it works on a PC but I won’t have a pc when travelling.  

In July I am taking a day trip from London to Stratford-Upon-Avon. Someone in this community told me to get a train out of Marylebone station instead of Euston. That helped. Now I am looking at times. The time I wanted to go was 8:07am arriving at 10:13 with a stop in either Dorridge or Warwick (I found same train with these two different train changes. Maybe they haven't figured out which one yet). However, there is only a 10 minute train transfer time. I don't know the size of these train stations. Is that cutting it too close? I won't have luggage since its just a day trip. any suggestions?

Bonjour Quelqu'un peut-il me dire comment réserver un trajet Venise/Nantes via Bologne, Milan, Zurich, Paris? Tous les trajets sont indiqués N/A et le lien pour la réservation est inactif. Merci!

These night train reservations can only be made in person, so they sell out easily? Could I reserve a sleeper or couchette on the day, or do I need to be lucky? is it the same both ways, or different? also, I heard you have to get off the train at the border - is this true for the sleeper also? Do you change beds or something?
