Hi all, trying to book my son and his friend tickets from Paris Gare Du Nord to St Pancras and I am being offered an option of the TGV to Lille, as opposed to a route that takes them directly from Paris to London.Is this an option I can select? How tricky is it to change at Lille to catch the Eurostar? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I will be traveling from Florence, Italy to Paris, then from Paris to Barcelona.  I have 6 days in which to do this and would like to take the train.  I was looking at the Eurail 7 day pass.  Would this be the best option for me and my parents?  Not sure how long a trip from Florence to Paris, then from Paris to Barcelona by trian.  Any information is greatly appreciated. Thank you

HI,This is our itinerary for a family of 3 adults and a child.Aug 11: Geneva-Interlaken Aug 12: Interlaken -ZurichAug 14: Zurich -SalzburgAug 16: Salzburg-VIennaAug 19: Vienna -Prague4 questions:Is a 7 day Eu-rail the right choice or something less is possible? Best option for Jungfraujoch -is that train from Interlaken and is this covered by Eurail pass? Is reservation necessary on any route during this time which is peak summer? Wondering if a rental car is an option on any part of this itinerary for more flexibility. I suspect eurail pass will be less expensive but please suggest. 

I was going to take the train from Oslo to Stockholm on March 23.I had reserved and paid for my hotel in advance for my stay in Stockholm. Everything seemed fine, but when I arrived at the platform, I find out that the train would be 160 minutes delay.Since it was cold, I wanted to wait at the station instead of waiting on the platform. I didn't leave the station for 2 hours. When I went to the platform again 2 hours later, I could not see any information about the Stockholm train.Since it was late, the information desk was closed, so I went to the security guard and asked about the situation.The officer said that a lot of people like me had the same problem and that they did not know what happened to the train.After waiting for about 1 more hour, we learned that the train arrived early and left without any information.This train was the last train to Stockholm for 23 March. So there was no other train I could take and I was stranded in Oslo. Also, since I couldn't go to Stockholm, I c

I am having a hard time getting a seat reservation for this trip. After getting off the ferry how likely is it to get a seat on this train with a interrail pass?

 Trains you want to board with your Eurail Pass  Train visible on the seat reservation page Origin, destination, train number, and arrival time are all the sameOnly departure time is different Is it the same train?Can I proceed with seat reservation?I have a question because the departure times for all other trains are the same. please answer about my question. thank you

I want to go to Italy. How are the trains in italy are they resevation heavy or no. 

HiI have tried twice today on both safari and chrome to make seat reservations and each time I get just before payment I get an error message starting something went wrong. Is anyone else getting this and any solutions?Is it just a weekend bug?Thanks Mark 

Hello,  I’d like to buy a pass reservation for a TGV train from Paris to Forbach. Unfortunately, for our train SNCF claims that all seats are booked. Strange to say that for the same train it’s possible to book seats from Paris to Saarbrücken, but not for the shorter trip to Forbach.However, this would change our trip to be an international trip and to consume a home country day of our pass in germany which we don’t have available. Would it work to get a pass reservation to Saarbrücken and use our pass only for the way to Forbach, so no home country day would be used? It’s even bad enough that reservation fee goes up from 10€ to 18€ due to this-

Hi everyone! My friend and I have the 10 day Eurail pass and are looking for the best way to get from Rome to Athens the end of May. We are willing to make stops in some cool places and have 4 days to spare! Thank you so much for any advice!

Hi,I try to book a seat reservation from Homburg HBF (Saar) to Vienna HBF for the 20 June, but there is no 1st Class seat reservation shown for ICE 563 Homburg-Munich, but 1st and 2nd class reservation on the Munich to Vienna leg.Could it be that the Homburg to Munich ICE has only second Class and no first class, or is first class already booked out. When I go to www.raileurope.com, it only shows no seat reservation required but I am unable to book a seat reservation.Is there a website which shows the trains aND WHAT CLASSES THEY HAVE?Regards,Horst

The question is in the title.

Hi I’m planning my Interrail trip around Europe and I want to travel from Milan to St Moritz via Tirano and take the Bernina Express…. Has anyone in the community done this route before and could they give me some good advice on how to plan it? Thank you in advance for all your help.Regards Greeny

Hi all! A small group of friends and I are gearing up for a trip to the Picos de Europa in Spain this May. Our 15-day journey will take us through the Alps, possibly including the Pyrenees based on recommendations. Our focus will be on activities like bouldering, scrambling, via ferrata, and hiking. Starting from the Lake District, our first stop will be Fontainebleau for some bouldering. Another stop is Magic Wood, also known for bouldering, (we will get the train to Chur and then link with public transport).As we’re still in the planning stage, we're open to suggestions on how to seamlessly connect our destinations via trains and local public transport. Quality over quantity is our priority but any recommendations are greatly appreciated!Thanks :) 

Just looked at some Hostels and a bed in a 6-8 person dorm costs around 60-80€ per Person and night in most cities. Does anybody has the same experience and how can i save some €? sure prices will never get back to 20€ a night for a Hostel Bed but 80€ is somehow a lot😅

Is it possible to use our EURAIL Global Pass for the train Annecy - Lyon - Tournon (Tain l’Hermitage)?

Hello, I’m trying to get a nightjet from Vienna to Venice overnight (24 to 25 of July). The Eurail timetable says “Reservation fees vary based on demand” and seat reservations required but doesn’t give me an option to reserve it. The OBB nightjet website says no offers available and the general OBB website says ticket unavailable. Does this mean it’s already sold out? Really didn’t think it could possibly sell out so early out but I guess it is a popular time. Any help would be appreciated. 

I'm an American, but I live in Spain on a student visa. Can I buy a eurail pass? Also if I do, jow does it work. I want to go to Italy, France and Germany. Do I have to go to those place within 4 days. Does it count if I want to go to Germany and back home. 

Hi All, we are planning a trip to Pula via Lake Bled from London. There seems to be a lot of change overs and much longer journeys than I thought according to Train 61!Any advice for quicker, more direct journeys?

I'm wanting to book the Nightjet from Vienna to Venice on 13th July but the website says not available, am I too soon or too late?? Berlin to Vienna a few days before is available to book now.

Hi, How is it best done to travel overnight.  Tried interrail - brings me to a load of connections.  Tried OBB - not showing clearly.Please if someone has done this can you share pearls of knowledge. Going to book a bed, but need to get one overnight train first. Plus, what is special to see in Prague? Many thanks,Barb
