Trying to book seat reservation on France NOMAD train - ''prices unavailable''

Hello,I have bought 1st class interrail passes (x2) to travel in France in July.I have been able to book reservations for trains such as Eurostar or TGV no problem.However, I am trying to book reservation for the NOMAD train from Paris Gare St Lazarre to Cherbourg and back and got the dreaded message:Prices unavailableNo 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. I have contacted the SNCF who directed me to TER Normandie. One client adviser said that I could not book reservation while another one said it was possible. A quick search on sncf booking service shows that yes, reservations are doable as the screenshot attest.  I have an inner ear disability and must be seated on train hence why I am trying to book

Paris to Normandy Train Reservation Issues

I am planning a trip with my wife and three sons to Europe in June.  I have purchased 7 day Eurail passes and made the necessary train reservations except for one problematic leg of our trip. I am having great trouble making train reservations to Normandy and hope you can help.   We want to travel from Paris to Bayeux or Caen the afternoon of Thursday, June 23 and return to Paris on Sunday morning, June 26.  The Eurail trip planner shows SNCF TER trains available in and out of St. Lazare in Paris but when I try to book the reservation, it says “prices unavailable. It is possible that all passholder seats are sold out.”  Upon investigation, it appears that  SNCF isn't sharing information to allow reservations to be made online and you can only make a reservation in person at the train station.  On SNCF’s website, it appears that some of these trains only require reservations on the weekends but the Eurail app shows that reservations are needed on almost all trip options. This leads me t

Lost in the process. Please help with the clearest instructions possible

Greetings. I am planning to travel with a family of 7 members to Europe in 2 months. I want to buy the Eurorailglobal pass for 4 days.  We are planning leaving Rome to Lausanne as the 1st trip. How do I do this? I have check the Frecciarossa. But I am confused if just with the eurorailglobal pass is enough or if they take it to travel.  I know I have to pay faside for a seat reservation, but when I enter the dates in the Eurorailglobal pass it does not show the dates I need yet.  Also, I do not feel confortable downloading the app to obtain the tickets due to the phone connection. I am a tourist. I want to print the EURORAIL global passes if I ended up buying them. I do not know if I must use the train or the plane. Please advise and explain. Thanks in advance for your help.

Is the first class global pass worth it?

Hello,I am currently trying to decide which ticket I should get.I was wondering if the First Class Pass is worth it, since to actually benefit from first class, I will always have to pay for seat reservation right? So is it worth getting? Additionally, are the seat reservations cheaper if I have the Interrail pass or is it the same price as if I didn’t have a pass?For second class there are a lot of trains that don’t require reservation so I am more leaning on getting that one.

add manually

I have booked and reserved seats for a  trip on 2 Jan 2024 from Paris to Amsterdam. This will be the start of our eurrail journey. On the rail planner app it doesn’t find the train we have booked. It says not available yet? So I try to add manually and it won’t let me change the date to 2 Jan 2024? How can I do this

getting money back?

Hello,I have a 7 day one country pass  for France 2nd class and I started my travel today but the ICE in Germany was delayed and I missed my tgv.All of the next tgvs were fully booked for pass holders. Since I need to be in Paris the next day I had to book a first class ticket, which was sadly very expensive. I was wondering if there's any chance to get some money back?Thank you!

TGV Lyria Seat reservation Clarification (ZUR->PAR)

Hi all,I hold an EURAIL pass. I am trying to book seat reservations from Zurich to Paris Lyon on 22d Dec 2023. However, the timetables does not seem t e updated in EURAIL/INTERRAIL website.Do we know when the latest timetable will be updated? Are there any other mechanisms to book seat reservations for TGV Lyria. I called SCF connect in Zurich and they cdnt assist either. I have booked other country seat reservations in DB/LNER/GWR websites. Am I required to tag those reservations with my EURAIL pass in my Rail planner app? or Do I just show my pass from the Rail planner app to the conductors? Am I able to use EURAIL pass within Switzerland? i.e Zurich->Lucerne or Zurich ->Bern etcAppreciate your response. Apologies if this was asked before.

Brussels Midi to Cologne - Day Trip Oct 13, 2023

Two of us are taking a day trip on our first class Eurail passes today, Oct. 13, 2023 from Ghent to Cologne.  The segment from Brussels Zuid (Midi) to Cologne is showing as “seat reservations not required” and the Eurail site is showing that I can reserve seats for a fee.   I went to OBB and tried to reserve seats, but it is showing that no seats are available for reservation on the 10:25 train to Cologne. We need to come back on the Cologne to Midi train at 17:51 and I haven’t checked yet for seat reservations on OBB, but would like to make them I can.  If OBB is saying I can’t reserve seats, does that mean seats are full or does that mean that they just do not handle the reservation?    Thank you.

Eurostar times and booking

Hella, I’m travelling (family of 4) from UK to south of France next May, Saturday 25th. I can see there are tickets from London to Lille and Paris available to book seats now, the train I’d ideally like is the 11.04am from London to Lille. This train is on every Saturday basically until the 25th May when it disappears from the schedule. My question is therefore:Do I wait and hope this 11.04 London to Lille train will be included on the schedule closer to the time? Or, do I book one of the other ones in case the spaces sell out. The alternative one that works for us time-wise is the 12.31 London to Paris.I’d prefer the Lille 11.04 as the timings are better. I’m conscious that this Saturday is the start of the half term holiday in UK and a Bank Holiday Monday so it might be a busier weekend to travel on that those either side of it. Thanks for any advice.

Booking on the OBB Nightjet

Hiya, I’m new to interrailing, this might sound like a really silly question but if I book a standard sleeper car for me and my girlfriend on the OBB Nightjet, will someone else be able to book the other bunk? Or do I need to book the deluxe one instead?As on the final booking page it says that there is the potential that someone else could book it. However on other messages and support websites it says that if 2 people book for the same room then no one else can book the 3rd bed? Or am i just majorly overcomplicating it? Thanks!

French German Interrail ticket

Hello, I plan on travelling from Germany to France on the first travel day via Basel SBB. I read on the official page that normally it would only be possible to really travel in Germany and France only without crossing a border.On the other hand I have read in this forum that Basel SBB should be fine as it is directly at the border of both countries and the operating trains are French or German. Can someone please tell me which version is true?Basel SBB just seems to be the easiest way for me, I dont want to go all the way north to Francfort just to cross the French-German border… Thanks in advance!

Itinerary and whether a pass covers all of it

Planned trip below. Does anyone know if a Eurail Pass covers the train part of the London to Dublin (Sail/Rail) leg? Not counting that portion, I loosely priced out individual tickets and think it comes in at about $355. Looks like 8 travel days - would a pass be better? Thanks!Glasgow to Invergordon and returnGlasgow to Ft. WilliamFt. William to EdinburghEdinburgh to LondonLondon to Dublin (Sail/Rail)(flight to Bremen, Germany)Bremen to BerlinBerlin to Amsterdam
