asked in Eurail & Interrail Passes

First time user seeking a tutorial

I feel your pain. It seems that each reservation, or trip will need its own QR code for the conductor to scan. How to make that happen is still a bit of a mystery to me, when I don’t know yet what trains I will need. I did see somewhere that if you can print a paper ticket you should. I am brand new to using a phone app for travel too.

Munich Airport to downtown with the Pass

So, my understanding is that when I click on that little button that yes, I want this train, even one that does not require a reservation, THEN I get the QR code, and activate the first day of travel? So, if by chance our plane is delayed, or we meet someone who will give us a ride, I don’t have to waste that first day at the airport?

Thanks, I think I am beginning to sort it out. The main thing seems to be to not set in motion until you know that is what you want. I have “activated” for March 7, but I have not connected a trip with it yet, so still not certain if March 7 is now my first official day, or not. I have 5 days, and I think I will be set on the rest of the days anyway. So far the app shows no travel days used. And thanks, about the S-Bahn tip.

I am not sure about different passes, but mine is 5 days in a month time. And, yes it does say 0/5 days used. I will look into this. At least that is what I think it is, 5 days to use in a month. We will only be there 2 weeks. Thanks!

It was a struggle, but I finally figured out a trip or two to save, to possibly use to get from the airport to our hotel. For some reason it was a struggle to find the station nearest to us, there is more than one, and the one on the hotel website (or one of them) was not one that has a S-Bahn train, to accept the pass. The Eurail pass planner only works if you know EXACTLY where you want to go. Thanks for all the help everyone!!!

How do I read an OBB ticket

i will add, the schedule I printed says it leave Munich HBF at 7:34. Now I think I can leave from the Rosenheimer station near out hotel, but, when I put all this in the app planner, the time from Rosenheimer was also 7:34. I thought I would have to make another ticket from Rosenheimer to HBF, because of my original mistake.

Pasrt of the trip needs seat reservations, can I do that the day of travel?

How do I read an OBB ticket

So, I think this is what will happen, or I should do. I see times on the planner to leave Rosenheimer at 7:34, with some changes and eventually arrives in Genova P. Za Principe at 16:18. There are notices that a seat reservation is about 12 Euro, and I would guess I can pay then. If not, I will find out where to pay for that. I should not activate this trip to bring up QR code until the day of travel. Am I correct? Thanks for this wonderful community to help.

Oh, to those who suggested the night jet, I did know about that, and it was solid full on the day I needed.

The train that says I need a reservations FR 9728, and I think now, that is what I thought I was doing a few weeks ago when I somehow got this supplement. I think I thought then, I WAS making a reservation.

Thanks to all of you for your help. I feel much better now, and yes, I am pretty sure there is a S Bahn from Rosenheimer to HBF, to go on to Genova. I know now when to have the supplement ready, and I will pay for the seat reservation when we are there. THANKS!!

@Angelo Thank you VERY VERY much, I did not know some of this, and would have found out the hard way. Two of the trains I already had in the planner, and the first and last train I will change because of your suggestion. I have a cousin waiting for us in Genova ITALY, (yes) so, I don’t want to mess up. And thank you for the tip to not leave at 7:36, I woule miss it all.

@Angelo I just realized something else, it seems to be a good idea to put each train in the planner separately, because each one need its own ticket. I was saving the whole trip. Now I have the problem that I have paid for first class Eurail, and in the planner it says to make a seat reservation it is about 5 euro, but the only way to make a reservation is to go to the Italia Rail website and there the only thing to do is to buy a ticket for about 25 Euro and I see no place to enter the Eurail pass number to pay for just the seat reservation. Unless I am thinking Eurail does something it doesn't do. I knew that the pass doesn’t give free rides all over on all the trains it is affiliated with.

@Hector The Nightjet was sold out for the one and only day I could use it. Except instead of saying sold out, it said unavailable. I checked on other days that I couldn’t use, and the information was all there. If seats are available now, I can change all this to the nightjet.

@Hektor I am thrilled!! A few weeks ago when I struggled to book the Nightjet, i couldn’t on the day I wanted, I emailed them, and they just said it is booked. Thanks to you, I tried again just now, and got my reservations!!! Printed the ticket, I am so happy, I LOVE you. I can’t name any kids after you, but the next cat that shows up on my door step is going to be named Hektor.
