How do I book seat reservation Spain?

Hi!I am travelling to Spain in late August with Interrail pass. I have looked into a few other threads where I have found the number +34 912 320 320 to call for booking seat reservations since I doesn’t seem possible to book seat reservations for trains i Spain over the internet. I live in Sweden and am arriving in Figueres Vilafant about 1-2 hours before the first train I aim to book in Spain.I have called several times trying to book seat reservations. First time they said it was too early and that I had to call back when there was 3 months left until my trip. Second time they said it was something wrong with their system but that they would mail me a link which I had to click on to approve the booking, or something like that. Unfortunately i never got the mail. Now that I tried calling for the third time they say that I can’t book seat reservations until 3 days before my trip, but that I can buy tickets now to the train if I want(however then that is not linked to my Interrail pass)

Don't understanding inbound/outbound rule.

Hello everyone!I want to make a trip to 2 countries and start and end in my home country Germany with the 4 day Global Pass.My 4 traveldays are:Cologne to Marseille via France. Marseille to Florence +4 Florence to Hamburg (2days, one outbound one inbound)Is this possible? Because to me it seems so that thanks to the condition of the global pass i can only make trip which are originating from my homecountry or going to my homecountry.Thanks for your help!If the global pass does not count inbound than that's fine too I just don't understand if I can travel from France to Italy.

Travel in the UK

Hello! Two of my friends and I have Interrail Global Passes and have already chosen the flex travel option. We had previously won the passes via the DiscoverEU contest before the pandemic and are now hoping to finally travel! I read on the website that travelling in the UK is possible despite the Brexit restrictions. However, can we only travel in England and Scotland without entering an EU country? Do our passes differ from the ones which can be bought through the Interrail website? I mean, is there any additional obligation from our part to travel in an EU country or do the same things apply for all Interrail Global Passes? Our home country is Greece by the way. Thanks in advance!

How far in advance should I get to the station and do trains have a limit on number of people they allow?

I’m interrailing in May-June time and wasn’t planning on booking reservations when they’re not required. On the rail planner app it says the train times, for example Berlin- Brussels, 6:46am-13:26pm, does this mean that the train leaves the station at 6:46 or arrives at the station at that time. How long before setting off do the trains get to the station, how far in advance should I get there to ensure I get on? Also, if I haven’t reserved a seat, is there a limit to the amount of people that the train allows (I assume I will be standing which is fine). Will the train just fill up or is there a maximum amount of passengers allowed. I don’t want to not be able to miss/not get on as there’s a big gap between train times.

Seat reservations not required, but prices are unavailable. Can I get on or is it full? Croatia night train

Hi! So we were looking to get a night train from Zagreb to Split, it says :“You're ready to board. You can buy a seat reservation if you like but it's not required.”But then underneath it it says: “Prices unavailable. No price results were found for this connection. It is possible that all pass holder seats are sold out. Please try searching for another connection or check 'More information' and try other ways to book this seat reservation. If no pass holder seats are available anymore you need to buy a separate full fare ticket to board.” Does this mean we could turn up on the day and get on without a reservation or does it mean it is fully sold out? Any help would be appreciatedThanks!

All pass holder seats are sold out. Can I travel?

I am trying to book my first trip. I want to travel from Graz to Utrecht, leaving Graz Thursday July 14 evening or Friday 15. It is not possible to make a reservation for the NightYet any more, neither for the 17:26 train. No reservation should be required for the 14.26 train, but for the 17:22 train from Wien Miedling to Frankfurt it says It is possible that all pass hlder seats are sold out. If no pass holder seats are available anymore you need to buy a seperate full fare ticket to board. Can I board, is this not allowed or do I only (?) risk not to fid a seat?

Use mobile pass in Bosnia Herzegovina

Hello,I want to use my interrail mobile Pass in Bosnia Herzegovina. The Interrail Website says this country is included. The problem is that in the Rail Planner App I can't add trips like Banja Luka to Sarajevo, because I can't select any bosnian train stations.

Inbound auch im Ausland nutzbar?

Hallo liebe Leute, Ich habe ein Problem, bzw. eine Frage. Ich habe mit den 22 Tage Pass gekauft und dachte, dass ich mir die 22 Tage innerhalb des Monats so packen kann, wie es mir passt. Nun habe ich an Tag 2 (gestern) meiner Reise bemerkt, dass mir ein Tag abgezogen wurde, obwohl ich nicht gereist bin. Nun bin ich am überlegen mir einen 7 Tage Flexipass danach zu kaufen, damit ich doch den ganzen Monat reisen kann. Kann ich also den Inbound, den ich bei meinem jetzigen Pass noch habe, auch im Ausland nutzen? Sprich zum Beispiel von Slowenien nach Kroatien (ich komme aus Deutschland) oder muss ich dafür wirklich nach Deutschland zurück, meinen neuen Pass abbrechen und dann weiterfahren?

Pass cover generator for Eurail is generating an interail number

Hi,I’m using b-europe.com and trying to purchase a ticket.I have a Eurail global pass. I noticed 3 days ago a post in the forum that says the pass cover number generator is live. I clicked the link https://www.eurail.com/en/book-reservations#/generatePassCoverNumber which is for Eurail but when I put in my pass number I get back a number that starts with the letter ‘I’. I think this might be a mistake because b-europe is expecting an ‘E’ at the start I think and I have a Eurail global pass.Thanks

Eurail pass scam?

Hi, I purchased a eurail pass for my trip travelling throughout Europe for 4 weeks. I thought this would save stress and money however when I arrived for my first train to Paris I was unable to make it on any of the trains and had to purchase a ticket anyway. My question is how can I avoid this happening for other cities where I may possibly be stranded without accommodation. The train company were not affiliated and could not help. There is no personal customer service making me think this pass / company is a total rip off!!

IC 394 Hamburg to Copenhagen - reservation impossible. Other options?

Hi all I need to get from Hamburg to Copenhagen on the 23rd of July. The best train i could find when previously looking was the IC 394 train.When i try to reserve a seat for that train it says that “Reservation impossible”… for all trains leaving in that direction. Is there something happening that i have missed? Is a seat reservation really needed for this route or could i give it a go anyways without a reservation? Perhaps there is another route i could take just in case? Although, to be fair, there doesn’t seem to be too many ways to Denmark from Hamburg...

Travel Day Question - I am wondering if these travel days must be used consecutively?

Hi, I just have a question about the Eurail pass I was hoping you could help me with. I'm just a bit confused about how the 'Travel Days' work. I am wondering if these travel days must be used consecutively? For example, If I pick the option for 10 travel days in 2 months, do I only have a 10 day period within those two months in which I can use the Eurail pass? Or, alternatively, can I break down those 10 days over the two months? (e.g. Use '1 day' of travel today, and then 2 weeks later use another '1 day' of travel?). I hope this makes sense! Your help is much appreciated,

Sitzplatzreservation

Hallo ZusammenEine Freundin und ich werden ab Samstag 10 Tage mit Interrail durch Italien reisen. Wir haben ein 2. Klasse E-Ticket. Nun habe ich über das Interrail-Portal die Sitzplätze reserviert. Auf den Bestätigungen steht jedoch bei beiden ein 1. Klasse Sitzplatz. Wisst ihr, wie das sein kann? Ich konnte bei der Reservation nur die 2. Klasse anwählen. Bekommen wir da nun Probleme, wenn wir trotzdem reisen?Achja und wir starten aus der Schweiz.Liebe Grüsse Jennifer

Spain reservation fees

I’m just considering buying an Interrail for me and my son for a 10-day trip from the UK into France and Spain. Last time I had an Interrail was 30 years ago - all paper-based, and very very few reservation fees!If we want a train journey with a connection (for example Granada to San Sebastian, which has at least 1 and maybe 2 or 3 connections) - do you have to make and pay for a reservation for every single ‘leg’ of the journey? For a journey with 2 connections, that would be E10 + E2 Interrail reservation fee on the app.. x 2 ‘legs’ = E24 just for reservations, per person? Is that correct?I have even read that you can’t actually book reservations on the Interrail app for Spanish trains, is that correct? So how would you do it - only in person at the station? It all sounds like a nightmare, possibly not worth it!!Thanks for any info!
