Reservations in Switzerland are not necessary (except for a few panoramic expresses) and are generally a waste of money. so when it says buy a reservation on interrail’s site i shouldn’t when it comes to swiss except the panoramic expresses?
thanks
alsowhen I click on “show only trains that do not require reservations”, it still shows the same train so I am confused and I definitely do not want to get. a fine on the train
16 july
quick updatebooked a seat reservation for €3 + €3 6€ totalthen bought €10 + €10 for each reserved train. €26 in total!
Normally this is all you need. But on the trains Munich-Innsbruck-Italy you only have optional reservation (but we reccomend it because trains can get full). You have to pay 10€ fee to use this train in Italy. You can pay it on board of the train, at ÖBB, DB or Trenitalia ticket offices (last two give you free reservation for this train) or online via ÖBB with the One Way Ticket option and use at 1x adult the discount Interrail. In addition to the 3 Euros I paid at ÖBB, I must pay 10 euros fee on board as well? Yes 10€ in 2nd class or 15€ in 1st class :/ You can pay it online at oebb.at or at a austrian ticket office. It´s possible onboard aswell but ÖBB warns that onboard you maybe have to pay a service surcharge for buying it onboard. You’re a life saver for sure!!Just did that as well. thank you
@ege Please note to buy the 10€ fee before boarding, because they ask to pay more if you pay on board of the train. Shall I do this via Interrail app?

After paying 12 euros at interrail site, do i then purchase this ? Or do i just purchase this for 3 euros? I am new. I just said i doubt that Interrail itself sell the surcharge :/ I never bought it from Interrail online as it was easier for me to get it from a Ticket office or online on oebb.at by useing the Eurail/Interail Discount I never bought it by myself on Interrail/Eurail but had many Interrailer and Eurailer on these trains that bought their reservations via Eurail/Interrail and finally had just the reservation in their hands that can be bought for 3€ directly on oebb.at :/ or if you comeing from further can be bought for 4€ (2nd Class) or 5,40€1st class via bahn.de And got angry or atleast confused when the Conductor wanna charge the supplement of 10€ in 2nd class or 15€ in 1st class. I will travel in June Venice - Munich - Berlin and bought my reservation via bahn.de because bahn.de charge per Journey (doesnt matter how many trains) compare
This train has only optional reservations. The supplement is 10€, you can pay on board of the train or via ÖBB online. You have only to pay for trips in/to/from Italy. Booking at ticket offices of DB in Germany or Trenitalia in Italy you get a Reservation for free on top. (DB online 4€/trip, ÖBB 3€/train) After paying 12 euros at interrail site, do i then purchase this ? Or do i just purchase this for 3 euros? I am new. on the Interrailwebsite they sell according my knowledge till yet only the reservation itself that cost usually 3€ :/ The question is what is written on your PDF or Paper you got from Interrail :) I am not following, can you elaborate ?

do NOT use this app-as we have to tell each&every newbee here a few dozen times/day. Best planner, as it covers most of EUR is bahn.com-this will overly clear show (its german after all) IF a train MUST be, CAN be or canNOT be REServed). It will NOT be able to REServe seat only for each country though. As a rough rule: In ESpana, tops the bill, then ALL TGV=superfast trains in FRance and then ITaly you will have to REServe and shell out for it-plus about all overnight trains. Very often if it is mandatory there are entry checks on the station-which you cannot pass without the proper extra tickets. thank you. can you also leave the links for train reservation sites for various countries? Bahn.de works for germany only. France, Switzerland, Italy etc.
And how can I check which trains require reservations? Because when I am on interrail app, it always says reservation required.
Oh! Now I got it! Thank you so much.
Hey thanks for your reply!But when I go on the site you recommended and try to book a reservation, it says this and doesn’t change regardless of the date
Question regarding this, can you tell me how you can book a reservation on the app without activating your pass?
