Can I use my outbound after my inbound journey?

Hi all! I’m considering traveling from abroad towards my country of residence. Since I might want to make another trip later that month, can I then still use my Global pass for the outbound journey and then buy a ticket at the border when I come back from that second trip? Thanks a lot in advance! Cheers,Maricke

Budapest - Prague Night train reservation on MAV (Hungarian website) - no interrail discount available

I am trying to make a reservation from Budapest to Prague by the night train. On the Hungarian website MAV, when I added the interrail pass to my train cards, the price for a 2nd class seat reads 58.9EUR, and i believe there is no discount at all (the same price as without the interrail pass): (btw what is this 57.9eur “europa flex cz” thing? there is no way to deselect it.) I tried to book on the CZ website as well, but there is no 2nd class seat option. So how do i correctly reserve a 2nd class seat for the Budapest - Prague night train? Cheers, Terry

Questions about reservations supplements

Hi, i’m planning a trip through multiple countries (Austria, Germany and Italy). When planning out my train schedule in “book reservations” for trains “included” in my pass I’m sometimes met with:1) “You’re ready to board” 2) an extra cost (example: for a night train (nightjet) from Cologne to Vienna) 3) “You're ready to board, You can buy a seat reservation if you like but it's not required.” 4) “+ Additional supplement required, You will need to pay an extra supplement at the station or on board the train.”I’m wondering what these mean exactly.Does “1)” mean i don’t need a reservation or anything else and can just show up and hop on at the station ?If I pay the extra cost for “2)”, I will be sent an electronic ticket. Is that enough in combination with my pass to board the train ?For “3)”, how do I know if a seat reservatiion is necessary (to avoid finding no seat on a full train)? And just to make sure, for “4)”, Am I right for thinking the ticket person will just ask me to pay a

Interrail ticket - I couldn't enter an earlier start date

Hi everybody, I was trying to book a 15 days in 2 month ticket for this summer. When I had to enter the start date of my journey, I was only able to pick from the 26th of July or later. Does anybody know why this is and if I can also get my ticket with the start date for the 8th of July?

Travel charges to my Bank Account?

Hello there! I am currently traveling in the UK with a Eurail Global Pass. I’m noticing that there a number of charges to my debit card under “TFL (Travel for London) Travel Charge.” At first, I thought these might be reservations, but reservations are not required at any of the trains I have taken thus far and the costs vary widely (£6-£30). Why is TFL charging me when I’m using my Eurail Global Pass that shouldn’t charge me? The only thing I can think of is when certain stations will card me in (as not all UK stations are up-to-date on mobile pass technology) that is making it charge me for an “uncompleted journey.”

But when we want to book reservations for these trains which is required. It says that there are none available. How can we still book seat reservations? Is there another way? I hope to receive a reaction as soon as possible! Kind regards Nina

Having trouble adding Mobile pass to Railplanner app.

Hello! I’m having trouble with adding mobile pass on the railplanner app. I have bought interrail tickets and I have received the confirmation email with my name and passcover number. It starts with an I and 8 digits. When I fill it in it says “your details dont match” It says make sure you have a mobile pass and not a paper pass. I think I have a mobile pass but if I have a paper pass can I still use the app? Or do I have to change the paper pass into a mobile pass?Thank you for the help!

Interrail Seat Reservations: Prices temporarily unavailable

Hi, as written in the title, I tried booking Seat Reservations for me and my friends (all Global Pass in paper form). Besides the extremly long loading times on the Interrail.com reservation page, I was most of the time unable to book any trains as all of them were labeled as “Prices temporarily unavailable.” Does this mean these trains are simply fully booked (at least for Interrail travellers) or is this just an extremely annoying bug of the website.

Reservation train Trondheim- Oslo, can't find e-ticket ooption

Hi,I would like to travel from Trondheim to Oslo and have to book a seat reservation for this trip. The problem is that I can’t find the self-print option. Does this mean I can’t choose to self print? That would be rather annoying since shipping adds like 9 eur to the total cost.thanks for the help

Reservations. Enough time when making reservations in person?

Hi,As it seem to be almost impossible to reserve seats in France and Spain, either it is not possible, or it is, or its just sent by post, how much time is needed to reserve in person?For example, if I arrive in Perpignan the 15th June, will I most likely? be able to book reservation on a train from Perpignan to Zaragoza the 17th?(SNCF) I mean, that's almost 2 days from I arrive in Perpignan, till I leave. Before Perpignan, I will be in Strasbourg for one night (14th-15th), if I go to the ticket office there (14th), will I be able to book reservations there? now its 3 days before? is it not enough time? who are all these people booking up all reservations, in person! all over Europe? :))) Im traveling with a small dog, so its making me a little bit extra stressed over the situation.

Problems with Pass! - wrong birthdays on the pass

Hi there everyone,I’m pretty new to eurail, as the last time I was in europe was with my parents. I have some problems with my mobile pass and the travelers on my account, as follows:The birthdays on the pass are wrong by one day for both travelers. I’m not sure why this happened, as I know I put in the correct birth dates when buying the pass. The current reservations are not added to a trip. I’d like to add them to a trip, but as far as I can tell the only way to add reservations to a trip is by creating the trip first and then booking the reservations WITHIN the trip.

Reservation time does not match the train times on the website

Hello,I booked a reservation from London to Paris via Lille. According to my reservation the train leaves at 11.04 but when i look for the train on the website I cannot find it to add to my trip. I now understand that the app is offline so times may not match but I thought the website would be correct - also does it matter if the time in my trips is different from the reservation.Sorry if this is a bit basic but I am a newby.

Hello,Eurorail is ruining our holly days. It is a shame of a Website! I’ve been trying endlessly to buy two Greek Islands Passes in vain, as the Mobile Pass option button doesn’t work. We have tried from several devises with no success and there’s no way we can use the paper version while travelling in Greece. I can’t believe it s an online service using the post ?! Can someone give us a solution???

Only one time available to make a reservation. Can I also take another non-reservation train?

I'll be in Spain for 2 weeks leaving on June 14th.Part of my trip has me traveling from Cordoba to Ronda on the 25th. While searching the train schedule I see that there's only 1 time available to make a reservation which is 17:15.Am I stuck with that time or can I just use the pass for a non reservation on an earlier train?I'm hoping that I'll be able to catch a much earlier travel time. I planned on 2 days in Ronda and Sentinel de las bodegas and hope that my plans don't go awry because of scheduling.

App says '' no journeys have been added''

Is there any reason why this keeps happening? I have activated the pas because it’s been scanned multiple times throughout my journey but now it says no journeys have been added? This has been done for a couple of my travel days but still says that I have 1 less travel day than I should have?!
