Another Hamburg to Copenhagen thread

Hi,I was trying to book a seat reservation for the IC 394 form Hamburg → Copenhagen on the Eurail site and https://www.bahn.de/ but had problems like others. I read this post I was hoping to clarify what to do.Is this the website to book on https://travel.b-europe.com/dsb-rail/en/reservation-only#TravelWish? Does that get you all the way from Hamburg → Copenhagen and back again?Or do you need to split up the journey and make seat reservations on the Germany side and then on the Denmark side? Thanks

Reservations not showing and no email confirmations

I booked multiple reservations on Saturday as part of a month long trip. The money left my bank account but I have not received a single email confirmation and the reservations are not showing on my account nearly 48 hours later. I need confirmation as I have hotels booked in multiple cities.

SJ night train Stockholm - Narvik, 1 one country pass or 2 one country passes?

Hi everyone,I’m currently looking into the SJ night train from Stockholm to Narvik. The rail planner shows me to get a one country pass, but I will cross borders as the train travels from Sweden to Norway. Is this valid or should I look into getting two passes (1 Sweden, 1 Norway)?Thanks a lot!

Zagreb-Split night train international reservation. How to book?

Me and my friends are interrailing at end of august beginning of september… And we traveling directly from Lesce Bled to Split catching the night train in Zagreb. I also know it is only posssible to book croatian trains at the station but i was wondering if we can do it from slovenia or another country close by since the train from slovenia only arrives at zagreb 3 hours before the night train departs and we would have only those hours to have seats.

Day trip duration - starting one day and arriving the next - is it 1 or 2 travel days?

If I were to buy a ticket for Berlin at 11pm with the arrival at 6am the day after, would it count as 1 day or 2 days of travel?

Hi, I bought a ticket from the DB reisezentrum from Berlin to Warsaw on the EC.I read some of the forum posts - but was after clarification please.Once I’m in Warsaw, how do you arrange seat reservations? I can put the journeys into My Trips but is there a specific train company in Poland that should be used? And is it always paper tickets?And I know there aren’t really any trains atm going to Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, etc. But in the south direction to Budapest, Vienna, etc is everything running pretty standard?Thanks

How to book a train if it shows "you're ready to board"?

Hello! We are traveling with discoverEU interrail pass and we want to book our train from Ljubljana to Venice. Details about the train: from Ljubljana it departs at 18:53, 21:32 arrives at Trieste Centrale (Italy). Then we wait for 34mins and from Trieste Centrale, at 22:06 we continue our trip to Venezia Mestre, where we arrive at 23:50. Is there any possibility to book a train reservation on both of these trains? They both appear as “you’re ready to board”, but we would rather be sure. Thank you for your answers!

Reserving 2-bed couchette Bucharest Istanbul Train via CFR

Hi. Looking to buy a ticket from Bucharest to Istanbul via the Romanian State Railways website. I know that this is more expensive than necessary given that I am buying both the ticket and the reservation, but I want everything to be booked before starting our journey as I am travelling with my fret-happy father. However, online it seems like one can only book a place in a 4-bed couchette, despite the fact that I know other options should be available (3-bed, 2-bed, etc.). Is there any way to book a place in a 2-bed couchette online? If not, and I have booked the 4-bed couchette in advance, is there a way it could be upgraded at Bucharest train station if there was availability, provided I paid the difference? Thanks!
