I got it now EUR 14. Thank you so much. your suggestion is very useful. Thank you! Can I make a seat reservation before purchase Eurail global pass ? @Agelo Sure you can. Interestingly I also first saw no pass holder seats available although there were normal fares available. Since ÖBB don't have pass holder quota, I'm not sure what the problem was. After changing the date a few times, I did see pass holder fares. Thank you
@wannaporn Hey I get 14€. Maybe you should read again how it works to get via ÖBB seat reservations for Nightjet trains. Like I wrote prior you need to select ONE WAY TICKET and add Interrail/Eurail as Discount and NOT seat only! I got it now EUR 14. Thank you so much. your suggestion is very useful. Thank you!

For this Nightjet train reservation is not compulsory in Austria and Switzerland, but people with a normal ticket get it for free, so maybe better to reserve. You can reserve it via tickets.oebb.at using one way ticket option and Interrail/Eurail as Discount. The reservation costs 14EUR. If you take from Innsbruck the first day train Railjet, then reservation is optional and costs 3EUR via tickets.oebb.at with the seat only option. Thank you for your suggestion, however, I tried to booked via tickets.oebb.at prior as well but it showed that TICKET NOT AVAILABLE, so I cannot make a seat reservation.
For the routing that has required for seat mandatory, if the seat is full and cannot make reserve seat, can I still travel with my global pass without booking a seat ? No you can't. Mandatory means mandatory. What route are you looking at? I try to reserve my seat for Innsbruck hbf to Interlaken Ost on 19Dec22, departure time is 04:31 for NJ 466. However, it cannot reserved a seat but it allow to make new purchase for new ticket. I don’t want to purchase new ticket because I’m holding Eurail global pass, I just only want to reserved seat as it’s required but I can’t.do you have any suggestion on this ?
That's no problem. Just add the second pass by going to My Pass and tapping on the + at the bottom right. For making reservations, it doesn't make a difference on which device the passes are. Thank you so much
Can we do a seat reservation before purchase a global pass ?
Just to mention, you do not have to activate the pass in order to make reservations, it is best to leave it until you are sure you are travelling as it can be an issue to cancel/alter it once activated. Also, please be aware there are issues reported with the eurail app not working properly for people from your part of the world due to the phone’s calendar being set to the Buddhist calendar. so should we set the phone’s calendar to Gregorian ?
Thank you so much
