URGENT CURRENTLY TRAVELLING - FRANCE TRAIN STRIKES - BARCELONA TO PARIS

Amsterdam to London - boarding time in between at Rotterdam Centraal

Hi there,I am trying to book a direct train from Amsterdam to London using the Eurail pass. I can see that the train stops at Rotterdam Centraal and has a half hour gap between the IC train and the Eurostar train. My concern is at the Boarding Time section, it says that check in closes at Rotterdam 30mins before the train leaves, and says to make sure you have 45-60mins for security and passport control. On the Eurail website it says there is 35mins in between but the IC arrives at 4:36PM and Eurostar leaves at 5:28PM, which is actually around 60mins. Is anyone able to explain and clarify whether it is 35mins or if it is 60mins (allowing for the passport check and all)?I have attached a screenshot of the times below.

Refunds for delayed trains in Spain (Renfe)

Took a train yesterday from Madrid to Malaga which got delayed by a little over 30 minutes.Upon arrival at Malaga some passengers were queuing up to file for refund at the station ticket counter but since I was in a hurry I didn't bother.Also, since I only paid the reservation fee in combination with Global Eurail pass and not the full ticket price, I wasn't sure if there are refunds on the reservation fee as well just like full fare tickets.Thought I would ask here if someone can shed some light on this... basically the query is two-fold: 1. Are the reservation charges refundable on delayed Renfe high speed trains?2. Can a refund be claimed online or does one have to physically fill a form at the counter?Thanks in advance for your time. ..

Reservation help - Spain to Croatia

Hi!I would love some feedback. I am considering buying a interrail ticket for the more expensive parts of my trip as especially the ones in the beginning have had a premium price on the traintickets. I believe all tickets can be booked on the interrail site, but the reservations is done here and there? Is it possible to check if there is any interrail tickets left without buying the pass?I think I need to book the Barcelona - Nimes seat reservation as soon as possible if its not already sold out right?When it comes to bookings in france on the site SNCF, how do I know if I buy only the seat reservation and not the tickets also but only the seat? I’m considering getting the 1st class ticket as there might be more potential spots on the trains? My itenary is as follows :Spain flying to Barcelona (start)Francetrain to Nimes,train to Nice,Italytrain to Milan,train to Venice,Sloveniatrain to Ljubljana,Croatiatrain to Zagreb,bus to Split - (looks that buses are the best option here? 6h train

Can I board the train?

Is it worth getting a 7-day pass for these days or should I rather buy a 4-day pass and buy the tickets on site?

can't get the app to work and I can't access the eurail website from my phone

I can't seem to activate my eurail pass using the app, it keeps saying there's an issue and try again later. Then when I try to access the eurail website from my phone it says "You are not allowed to access this page. HTTP error 403" I don't know what to do.

Trenitalia pass

I have a question about the trenitalia railpass.I need some clarification about the word “journey” since the pass counts the numbers of journeys and not days.I am planning a Veniz- Palermo trip. which will have a Veniz to Rome via the high speed train and then night train for the Rome-Palermo leg.Is the total journey gonna be 1 (Veniz-Palermo) or 2 (Veniz- Rome and Rome-Palermo)? Thanks.

Are some Italy-Switzerland Euricity excluded from Interrail?

I noticed that some Eurocity between Italy and Switzerland are not visible in the Interrail planner app (for instance, EC 50 and EC 54 MIlano-Basel). The other three connections of the day are visible. One can still reserve the seats (e.g. from the Interrail reservation system, but the interrail ticket cannot be activated) . Interestingly, if one looks at the national legs of those trains (Milano-Domodossola and Brig-Basel) they become visible, but the international ones are not.Have others had similar experiences? Can one just add the trip manually, or will the controller object, because those trains are not supposed to be used by Interrailers (even if the seats are reserved) ?It seems that Zurich trains are all visible, but Geneva and Basel ones are limited.

London to Brussels

For the train from London do you have to book a train through the Eurostar site and then separately pay for a seat through the eurail app? I am going to Brussels and am confused. It seems for the other countries in my trip that maybe I can just buy a 3 day pass to cover my trips from Brussels to cologne, cologne to frankfurt, and frankfurt to Paris. But can I just add a 4th day for my London to Brussels train and then just pay for seat reservation and I am set or do I need to pay separately on Eurostars site for train pass (which is ver expensive compared to just adding a 4th day to my eurail pass) and then pay on the eurial app for the seat reservation.

Question about Eurail Global Pass

First time traveller and a little confused! My initial understanding was that the Eurail global pass would cover my travel throughout Europe EXCEPT for Switzerland (where I thought I’d have to buy the Swiss travel pass separately). But upon research, it seems that I am able to travel within Switzerland with the global pass, but want to confirm. I’m going to post my itinerary below (June 11-24). My overall question is - will the EUrail global pass work for travel between these destinations? Rome → Zurich → Lucerne → Interlaken → Bern → Cologne → Amsterdam → Brussels → Paris Thank you so much!

Train from Florence to Zagreb

We are planning our first interrail trip trough Europe for this summer and have already booked some trains, but then stumbled upon a problem. We want to travel from Florence to Zagreb on the 12th and 13th of August (2023) and the railplanner app gives us a suitable journey where we take two Euro-night trains: one from Bologna to Villach hbf and one from Villach to our destination Zagreb, but it doesn't seem possible to make seat reservation for those trains. Are we to late? We have also tried different websites, but it does not seem to work or take seat reservations. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this, any other train connection from Florence to Zagreb or do we have to alter our journey?
