I’ve just called SNCF’s English customer service and was able to confirm you can book through them. Thanks @Angelo!
@Angelo I’m surprised that you have been able to get reservations through the call centre! Every agent I was in talk with told me they couldn’t make the booking!I wonder if there’s a difference in picking the French service instead of the English one…
@AnnaB Yes, you are right. But it seems that nobody with an Interrail pass has been able to book any of those seats yet because I’ve been checking in regularly since a few days after SNCF released the regular seats in October. I also called other booking centres in Luxemburg, Switzerland, etc. at the end of October.Based on my research, nobody is able to book any Paris → Barcelona for any date after December 10th.
I’m having the same issue. I’ve been waiting more than a month to book a train Paris → Barcelona on December 11th.I called multiple times SNCF in the past few weeks, last time on October 27th, and they told me that the train has still a lot of (regular) seats but that somehow they can’t make any reservation in their booking system for an Interrail pass holder.If anyone knows better, I’d like to know if this situation is going to be fixed soon or whether I should go through Portbou…
I have the exact same issue… unable to buy a 1-month continuous pass. I hope the issue will be resolved tomorrow!
Thank you! Very detailed answer!I will wait for a few days (a week maybe) and see if they appear. Otherwise, as you suggested, the trains are already available on B Europe.
