Making Reservations if Paper pass has not yet arrived?

Hello Community,I purchased a paper pass yesterday and I would like to make seat reservations for some of my train journeys, especially eurostar as I am worried they will sell out but it says I need my pass cover number which it says will be on my ticket that may only arrive on 25th July and I am planning to travel 29th July...Is it possible to find out my pass cover number and make bookings before the paper copy arrives, otherwise can I change it to be a mobile version to avoid the problem? Thanks

Eurostar seat reservation

HelloI am trying to book seats on Eurostar on Oct 29 from London to Paris. I see a message saying most seats are sold out for pass holders and that people should use ferry as an alternative. But when I click on buy seats, it is allowing to pay for the seats.What does this mean? Can I still purchase seats or I should not book? Pls suggestThanksSatbeer

Sweden to Copenhagen. What pass to choose?

I am booking a trip for 5 people.  We are flying into Stockholm and we fly out of Copenhagen.  We will be visiting several cities in Sweden before ending up in Copenhagen.  I am a bit confused on the type of pass to purchase.  We plan to go from Stockholm to Gotenburg to Malmo to Copenhagen spending a few days in each city.  What do you suggest?

Sofia to Bucharest Reservations unavailable. Where do I book?

Hello ! I am trying to book a train from Sofia to Bucharest in September but the Interrail site says the seat reservations are unavailable. Do these reservations need to be booked on a separate website or in person at the station in Sofia?Also, if anybody has taken this train before do you have any advice on how much this reservation might cost? Thanks!

Mobile Pass Activation

HelloI bought a four day pass and I would like some help because I have some doubt if I activated correctly my pass or not.I have made seat reservations without difficulty and I received them by email as PDFs file from Intrerrail. But I cannot see these tickets on my mobile phone thanks to “My trip” window. I have no “show tickets” button like explained in an email I received. Do you think it is a problem? Or must I add these tickets through the Rail Planner application?Here is attached what is displayed on my phone when I go to “My Pass” (I have hidden the pass number and my name).I cannot display something like a QRcode showing the Pass itself. (wen I go to “details” window there is nothing else which is displayed excepted my ID number and my birth date)I think that my pass is not activated. What do you think about this?Thanks for your help!Bertrand

Trouble with seat reservations- different prices/times and unable to book

I am trying to make seat reservations for my eurail trip, as several of the routes i have plan require seat reservation. The first journey is from Krakow to Budapest. I first tried booking this through the app. Under “seat reservation required” there is a little menu where it says “first class” or “second class”, but nothing happens when i click them. Then i tried going to the eurail webside to book there, but the spesific journey i had picked in the app wasn’t on the website. Instead there were other times and other routes. Also, when refreshing the page, i got different results and availabilities every time. Usually the price of the seat reservation also changed, and some parts of the journey suddenly was unavailable for reservation. I tried going to the train companys website to book there (intercity.pl), but got different times and prices there, and was also not able to choose discounted tickets for eurail ticket holders. I am very confused, and considering reserving seats at the s

Using a Mobile Pass - QR Code Questions

I’ve got a global mobile pass. Sorry if these are stupid quesitons, but this is my first time using it. When should I connect a journey to my pass? Should I wait until I’m on the train? What happens if I connect a journey before I board and then miss that train or the train is cancelled? Can I just get on the next train to the same destination using the same QR code? If my journey has multiple changes, do I need a QR for each stage? For example, I want to go from Bruges to Berlin, which takes c8h overall and has 2 changes. Do I get one QR code for the whole journey when I board at Bruges, or do I break it down into stages and get a separate QR code for each stage?

Do I just add the trip and show the QR code as ticket?

Hello, I will be travelling from Milan to Munich on May 12th. When I reserved a seat the only option was to reserve from Milan to Zurich which I did , then wait 1h06 mins and continue to Munich (with no option to reserve). do I just add a trip to my app and then click view tickets and have them scan the QR Code? This is considered my ticket ? Where do I sit if there is no reservation? Or do I reserve a seat in Zurich?

Changing from paper pass to mobile before activation: finding it hard to get a response

I bought a paper pass last year timed for travel from 9 April this year.  Special 50% deal offered at the time. Pass not yet activated. Issued by ATOC. However I now realise a mobile pass is likely to be easier, particularly as I’m travelling with someone who has a mobile pass. I’m going round in circles trying to find someone (other than chatbot which couldn’t answer my question) to tell me if this is possible and how it can be done. Any suggestions, or do I stick with my paper pass?

Cancelling inbound on the same day before journey

Hello,Im all new here and just found out that it is better to buy the route (Offenburg to Kehl Grenze or Krimmeri-Meinau) because its not allowed take two trains in the country of residence. I am now on the second travel day (night train) but still hours away from the journey. I wanted to cancel  the inbound/outbound but I cant because it is linked to the day and not the route.

Reservations and ticket types

I have first class global pass tickets so when I need a seat reservation they offer me both 1st and 2nd class reservation prices.  So, if I choose the cheaper 2nd class reserved seat I am effectivly bumped out of first class even though my ticket/pass is 1st class.  Is that the way it works ?
