In general: I understand you are not familiar with european train travel but you are worrying too much about changing trains. Especially in Switzerland that's no problem even with big luggage. Five minutes are enough time to change and you do have a lot more here. Regarding the bus from Milano Centrale: As written before, it does leave from Piazza IV Novembre near the ATM bus stop at the side of Hotel Gallia (ATM is the company running public transportation in Milano). That's basically near the station itself. If you are staying near Milano Centrale ask the reception staff of your hotel about it. They may guide you if you do need help to find it. Regarding the bus ticket: I did understand that you are holding a railpass? If that is true, you don't need a ticket. This is a rail replacement bus and your railpass is valid. You just need to add it in your planner app (it will appear by then). Your railpass is your ticket. I don't think it's possible to do
If you search from Domodossola to Interlaken or Zweilütschinen on the Swiss Railways website, you’ll see all these trains, including maps of the station and facilities onboard each train. www.sbb.ch (change language at the top) This is very helpful. Thank you.

Appreciate your detailed help Hektor!7.00 from Milano Centrale (bus) / arrives 9.20 Domodossola9.58 from Domodossola to Spiez arrives 11.44amSpiez to Interlaken OST 12.05pm arriving 12.26pm.With family and luggages, I prefer less transfers. Is this a doable plan? Can I book the bus tickets through RailEurope? How can I exactly find the bus stand and is there only one train station in Domodossola? Anything else I should be aware of? My final destination is Zweilütschinen, Switzerland. Hope I can take any train from ost to there.Thanks again for your help.
Thanks Hektor. I need to be earlier than that time in interlaken. If I can leave at 7am, can u please suggest the best route? Thanks.
8am is my departure but I’m flexible. Thanks much.
Thanks Hektor. What is 7.8? Is it for certain I cannot get a direct train from milan to spiez on aug 7th morning? If so what would be my best alternate option? I am traveling with family and kids and we are staying close to milan centrale. Thanks again.
I don’t understand the requirements hence asking. Yes, I have already purchased seat reservations. If that is all is required for global pass holder, then great. Thank you.
Awesome. Thanks much
Got it. That was helpful. Thanks.
I see Rail Europe has 3 direct trains from zurich to Paris mid August but in the afternoon. I need a direct train in the morning. Should I wait? Or if they have listed for that day, it means thats all that are available? Thanks.
Thank you. As of now I don’t see any trains in the afternoon/evening.
Thanks. Yes, I am aware of what you mentioned. I did try activate journey on different days for all 4 passengers and that's when I had problem. All journeys are manual entry and tickets brought through Rail Europe. Hope thats not the reason. Thanks for your help!
Yes, I have. I am suspecting it is not liking me activating trips on multiple days. If I activate just one trip, it seems to work. Will have to wait and see. Thanks.
I don’t even get ‘Show ticket’ option. Add a journey and Deactivate Pass are the only options I see.
I created manual trips and added it to each traveller (created a trip for each traveller). When I click on View tickets’ I don’t see them for all travelers. I see for just one. I was able to view the ticket for all travelers a while back. You can only see a ticket for one person at a time. This is as designed. In My Pass, you first have to select a pass and then you can show the ticket for that pass. Correct but after I select a pass, the tickets for that person are not visible anymore. I double checked after I added all tickets for the 4 passengers. Only some tickets for some passengers are visible now.

Thank you. That was helpful. Is it easy to cancel/change reservations after booking?
To make sure I understood, I need to keep checking Rail Europe, once trains are available to book, I book it providing my Eurail Gobal pass number. After that I add the train details in the Rail Planner app. Did I get that right? Any other steps I need to do? Thanks again for your valuable input.
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much for this valuable information. In Rail Europe how do I use my global pass that I have already purchased? Or will that option come only when I reserve?Also I am assuming I can use Eurail Global pass even for metros within a city (ex: Paris, Rome). Is that true?Thanks.
