Missed train toward final destination. Can I take another without extra reservation fees?

In another word if i am able to make it for ICE19, i just would have to hop onto the train & find the seats without having to pay for anything? Meanwhile i would need to add the trip to my mobile pass. So you have next train suggestion that i should take this train if i were to miss taking ICE19 ? Also, does all train departure requires all passenger to arrive 90-120mins prior to departure or is just the Eurostar thing ?

Is it necessary to use the Inbound & Outbound entitlement?

@rvdborgt Oh no…… in another word for me to travel from Munich → Ingolstadt → Ringshiem i would need to book another separate seat reservation and let go of my existing Munich → Ringshiem seat reservation of 8euro??? There is no other solution to resolving this problem?

@rvdborgt ah that’s sad to know about it….. i just booked the Munich to Ringshiem seats 4 days ago. With my above itinerary of 4 travel days being used, am i allow to board a regional train out of the 4 travel days or does this regional train considered as a travel day if i’m looking to board on 26th march?

@seewulf @rvdborgt I see! Shall pray hard he could get the ticket via phone call on friday or else it will be at the train station on Monday. Quick question for exchange or refund of seat reservation ticket purchased on DB website. I bought Munich to RIngshiem 27th march departing 1128am but now i would want to travel from Munich to Ingolstadt HBF station and from there 205pm to Ringshiem 807pm on 27th march. Is it possible to email DB on the exchange of ticket (even though they have stated that exchange is not allowed) or refund this ticket? Also does boarding a regional train on any day of my travel days considered 1 travel day and does anyone know what is the cost of the regional train ticket without using eurail pass?

@rvdborgt my partner can pick up the paris to barcelona ticket in Spain train station since he is currently there. But do you know if Renfe hotline open on the weekend? as he will be going to Madrid on Monday and i know once ticket are booked, it has to be collected within 72 hours. I see, i thought all DB agent are trained in the basic aspect of booking train tickets. Hence i was confused when they said for 31st march can’t book…..

@seewulf @EdM hi guys, my partner has called both DB & SNCF to book Paris - Barcelona on 31st march. SNCF said they can’t do any reservation on the phone DB said that they to write in to service-international@bahn.de to book the ticket. So he tried calling DB thrice. 3 times with 3 different customer service agent giving different answers. One mentioned, can’t book on DB please call SNCF / Renfe. Another said to write in to the above email and last one said can’t book for 31st march as the date is still too early to book. Please advise on how can i resolve this. French railway is making thing so troublesome.

@seewulf what u mean is that i can call either German Rail (DB) or SNCF and try to book via the phone call? & only for German Rail which is DB I might be able to collect at Cologne or Munich train station ? Through this method, I would pay only for the ticket reservation price?

@seewulf The above reservation required me to pay extra 9euro on top of the ticket reservation is for sending the paper ticket to the address? Is there a way to not pay for the 9 euro but still possible to get the ticket?

@seewulf omg can’t be more than grateful that you helped me to found the cologne train and thank you thank you for helping me so much on these long list of questions !! :) Last question do i need to activate my pass first before making reservation on any of the operator? Is a 4 days 1 month pass starting to travel on 23rd march. @EdM HAHAHAH is alright. I purchased it prior to 14th !

@EdM HAHAHA I’m not in Spain currently but my partner is! But the second option is that he can call which operator to get this reservation done? And I guess for Ringshiem to Paris no choice to call the operator too ?

@seewulf wow didn’t know there are so much more to selecting the route for trains. this is totally new ball game. Kudos to you for helping me out and everyone else !! Is the highlighted in yellow message something to be worried about? Cause i remember someone mentioned in my previous post about switching train at Bonn instead. Unfortunately, the free ride from Ringshiem to Paris leaving at 2pm is not in our favor to leave the theme this early…. i will have to pay extra euro to take the 432pm train…. And can i try to book it at spain train station or ideally just get it from eurail website? oh my gosh, i didn’t realised paris was till barcelona….. alright here is the paris to madrid. so for the 2nd part from barcelona to madrid i’m unable to book, so i would assume that i need to proceed to spain train station to book the seat with my pass cover number?

@seewulf truly appreciated your help in answering my questions!!! Are you able to show me how did you manage to find the route for both Brussels - Dusseldorf - Munich & Ringshiem - Paris on DB? Cause for both of this route I’m unable to find the exact route that you posted:( Also for Paris - Barcelona, the extra 10-15 euro is not stated on the Eurail reservation page so who will collect this fee? And to sum the total fee for Paris - Barcelona would be 72 + 15 (assuming the highest fee charged) = 87 euro for two pax. this is soo expensive…. I would ask my partner to try booking this route at the Spain train station but I’m still awaiting for @Nanja reply on my pass cover number via pm.

@seewulf Pls help to see am i doing the reservation with the different operator correctly? Previously, wanted to go via cologne route but upon searching even for short distance between cologne & bonn seat reservation is required which the total cost of the route to be on the higher end. Hence, decided to go for the Amsterdam route though i would love to stop at Cologne for a good 5 hours. Questions: for the message highlighted in yellow, is this a concern for me taking on this route? Questions: Technically, this route on both DB and OEBB shows that I can only book it at train station but Eurail has reservation for it??? Can reservation be done at Spain train station or what is the free TER trains from Strassbourg to Paris train number? Questions: 1. I remember that it was mentioned that booking of seats on French train are only via the train station. Can this Paris to Madrid be book at Spain train station? 2. The 2nd photo (paper ticket) highlighted in yellow does this mean

@EdM Ah i see! Thanks for the detailed explanation of the seating ! I just checked that my route from Bonn to Munich on 23th 1111 on NJ is unavable to book on OEBB stated to book at train station. Does this mean likely hood of this train is fully booked for pass holder and can my partner try to book this train in Spain train station? I have also realized that there are price discrepancy between Rail Planner and DB / OEBB. Example will be Rail planner shows zero fee for route from Dusseldorf to Munich but DB & OEBB is showing 2 different prices too. Which operator would u recommend? Quite confused

@EdMThank you for referring the article !! Wow last year was a good deal year. Hmm, now I am kinda stuck between purchasing the interrail now or on 14th itself…… And any suggestion for my current route which are some that are good to make reservation prior to the pass? I have just purchased my own eurail pass in my country with some discount.

@EdM I have decided on the routes taken for this trip. But i will research more for Ringshiem to Paris via Stragsbourg as i’m looking to arrived in Paris on 28th before 1030pm. Are you able to tell me what is the last year Valentine’s day discount about? And how does the reservation seatings work? As my partner & i both are using different pass (Interrail & Eurail) but i will be making all the reservation together.

@rvdborgtHello You mentioned that leaving Cologne for Munich on 23th March night tends to have engineering work which would result in me missing the train? But if i were to book this train, delay happened and I only purchase the 4 days pass. How would the operator compensate for the delay? I am still searching for the best route from london 23th - munich (arriving on 24th march morning). as the previous route Eurostar: London 1104 (1029)am-> Brussels 405pm (+30/ p)Eurail: Brussels 225pm-> Cologne 415pm ($0) ICE 17OEBB: Cologne 956pm-> Bonn 1025pm ($0)Bonn1130pm -> Munich24th 0603am($0) ICE → dont seem to be available anymore ?

Hi @rvdborgt Thank you so much for the hints given !! It’s seem like arriving in Cologne will have extra stops & time management consideration but there is transit time of 6 hours that would allow me to visit the nearby attraction (am I right that we could leave the train station upon arrival?) . Seewulf previously mentioned that I could do London to Amsterdam directly & take the night jet to Munich. Paris - Perpignan route i can’t remember on which website did I found the route. Currently, it’s seem like i would have possibility go with the direct TVG train if the Perpignan route is not available in the first place. Omg, thank you for pointing this out else I wouldn’t know it for requiring another pass for Barcelona to montserrat. I understand that both France & Spain has its own ticketing system that doesn’t allow online booking. Meaning to say if I’m looking to travel from other European countries to Paris, I can book it via the operator website or Eurail. However, i

Hi @seewulf I see. Now that I have more understanding of how the pass works. Alright, for Garmisch Patenkirchen. I might be doing the 2D1N upon arriving in munich, return to munich for remaining days till then travel to Europark. Do u know of any travel route from Munich to Europark? Assuming that i have include a travel day for this arrangement, i would need to increase my pass to 5 days ? There is another question for the receiving the pass. Assuming my partner is receiving the interrail pass via mobile & for myself would be receiving it in hardcopy mailed to my home country. Does this mean we could only make reservation upon receiving in either method ?
