@Tosh Smith The problem is that if you want to make reservations through the Interrail website they don't allow special characters in names. And name has to be the same as on the pass. The simple solution is to not make reservations on the Interrail website. Please read more below. Here is some useful information from the experienced travellers in the Community regarding both planning, reservations and activation of pass and travel days. Planning The rail planner is normally not up to date, as it only is updated once a month, so to be sure of the time table you better check the timetable and availability on the websites of the national railways. The bigger national railways, like DB (Germany) SBB (Switzerland) and ÖBB (Austria) cover several countries. Reservations The advice from the experienced travellers in the community is to use other ways to make reservations than the Interrail/Eurail website. You can look at the guide in the link: https://community.eurail.com/train-co
Hi sorry to jump on this post but I have just received my sons pass. When filling out the booking for him I didn't know about the hyphen rule. His pass came this morning with a hyphen in his surname, does he need to change his pass please?? So confused.
Thanks for the heads up, I appreciate it 👍
Thank you for your reply SeewulfI have been to Bratislava before on a flight so decided on Vienna for 2 nights as a stop-gapon the way to Krakow.And we plan a day at Wuppertal to experience the monorail from Berlin and maybe the Tropical waterpark.
Hello everyone!I am from Hull UK, I've always liked travelling by train but so far only around the UK apart from the odd train whilst on holiday in Spain and Austria.Interailling around Europe is very high on my bucket lists things to do, so since it's my 50th next summer and my sons 18th within 8 days of each other I thought that's a good focal point to make my dream reality.Along with my son and a good friend of mine we have been planning a 3 week trip for next August, yes we've changed our destinations countless times and we probably will do so much more but it's very exciting to look forward to the day we get on that first train on our 3 week journey! One of our shared passions between the three of us is football, so we plan to visit some famous stadiums on our journey, even watchba game or 2 would be awesome. Look forward to gain some others experiences and tips we've got a long 13 months to plan (and probably change our destinations again!).
Don't be shy and let us know about your challenge.
