Hello Yorkie, please, making propaganda for an Interrail Pass isn’t helpful AT ALL.The positives are nicely put on screen and on paper, but let’s stick to the real world, shall we? You’re completely ignoring the topic at hand here. Are you living on another planet? Dreaming of a bonus received by Interrail, for sharing glowing reviews?
You need a global pass indeed. If you're only making a single journey or even a simple return journey, then a pass may not be worth it, but you'll need to compare yourself. Barcelona is quite a detour to go to Portugal. The way via Hendaye is more logical. Look for journeys to Hendaye and then from Irún. You can use Euskotren in between. Thank you, rvdborgt, the single journey with a global pass a 238 euro with the seat reservations might be worthwhile, for it goes all the way to LIssabon, so that I prevent a long journey by Flixbus from Hendaye Fr. to Lissabon, see?That’s 38 euro for a single journey to Lissabon. The transfer in Barcelona is only present in the Intterrail train schedule, not in the Trainline bookings. It’s indeed a matter of comparing price and comfort level. That means also comparing messages that are detailed enough to be useful.Is Euskotren a train company? When I search for a trainjourney and place Euskotren in the “via” box, it’s not recognised as a Railway Stat
Thank you, thibcabe! Weird calculations? . But my days of traveling with a pass are 2 from Utrecht - Hendaye Fr. with 1 night in Barcelona.When I use a trainline ticket it’s in 1 day with only a stop in Paris between Utrecht and Hendaye. The amount of transfers with highspeed trains is weird, with about 6 -10 changes on the way. I understand that seat reservations are present in highspeed trains. Or is that a weird calculation again? I guess I need a global pass for my trip to Lissabon. Almost too expensive for a one way trip, for a return journey with that pass takes 2 nights in a hotel, which is expensive and prolonging the trip. I’ve tried many options to make it work.The puzzle is complex already as it is, and when you can’t trust the info it’s like sinking in a quagmire.It seems that corrections and smoothing wrinkles within this Interrail site isn’t someone’s priority.
