Ah, I see what you mean with the Barcelona-Lyon Lyon-Paris “trick”, also a good option then! I decided to book all in advance on the Rail Erope site, as I need to be sure to have the Eurostar to Rotterdam as well (hence the involvement of the NS). And good to know they still cooperate with the German and Swiss companies! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you, indeed the best and most secure was has been to book the seat reservations through RailEurope.com, clicking on the option “Add railpass” and only paying for the seat reservations. The second option is a bit risky, as there might nog be seats available for interrail pass holders once you arrive in Lyon. It seems SNCF has ended their cooperation with other countries/companies too, I tried to book the seats through the NS in Holland, but same story. What a pity! Anyway, solved it with this website, I hope this serves for other travellers too!
