Thanks for the advice, AnnaB. Another couple of questions! If I buy a new phone, can I transfer the pass to the new phone or do you guys need to do it manually? Secondly, you mentioned that so long as you travel on the same day, you can do as many journeys on the outbound journey from your home country. Does that mean that the ‘toggle’ switch that you need to switch to indicate that the journey is one of your two outbound/inbound journeys can be activated more than once. I am just concerned that when I toggle it for the second outbound journey it will say that you have already used your outbound journey entitlement - hope that makes sense! Thanks again for all your help.
Hi AnnaB. No I have not started travelling yet.I have a months continuous pass. It does say I can deactivate it so is that would I should do and then just reactive it for the right day (24th of July rather than the 25th)? Thanks.
Thanks again for the swift reply, AnnaB I will ring in the morning. On another matter, can you tell me how I change the travel day in the app for the mobile pass. I have started on the 25th when I should have begun on the 24th. I am not doing very well! Thanks
Thanks, AnnaB. That’s good news. Can you tell me how I might go about booking reservations for Norwegian trains. I want to reserve 4 seats from Kristiansand to Stavanger on the 1st August. We have a first class Interrail Pass ( 1st class for my 60th Birthday trip!), but I am not sure whether 1st class is available for this service, and if it is, how much it will cost. Thanks
Thanks, Aiden. Conversation has been useful. Somehow, and I am really not sure how, I think I have linked my pass to the eurrail reservation site, but I am not totally convinced. I have booked our Eurostar to Amsterdam, but that's as far as I have got. I have a nagging doubt that it is not going to work. Also, rather stupidly I did not book our train journey to St Pancras at the same time so now I am not sure that I can count the new booking that I need to make as part of the outbound journey...it will be done on the same day. Like you say, there are so many differences in journey times in the Eurail planner. Also, the trains from Kristiansand to Stavanger in Norway do not even show on the Eurail site. It is all so confusing, but maybe it's just my tired old 60 year old brain! I am sure it can't be so difficult!
Thanks for that, Aiden. Sorry to hear that you are having similar problems - I was thinking it was just me! You have described the problem a lot better than I did. Like you, have I have messaged both and am still awaiting a reply. It is so frustrating that you cannot contact either organisation by phone. I am guessing that they have been inundated because of the half price offer. Having done some research, I was told that it was better to book via the UK issuer, but in retrospect I wish I had got the pass via interrail.eu. I think I am going to try and book the eurostar using this method https://www.seat61.com/interrail-and-eurail-passes-on-eurostar.htm, but as for booking other seat reservations I am at a loss. If I hear anything back I will let you know. I am travelling with my family, so I really cant just chance it and will also have to book accommodation.😣
Such a helpful, measured reply, macadv (chip shoulder, springs to mind) I have not purchased an EU Rail. As I clearly explained, I bought an interrail pass. You need to read the question, before jumping on your high horse and being incredibly rude. Certainly hope I don’t meet you on our travels!
Thanks, Anna. I have to admit I am really not sure what to do. My eldest son does have a tendancy to break/lose things (he has gone through a fair few mobile phones) so that does not help. It’s a shame you can’t have both a paper pass and a mobile pass or keep a duplicate on another mobile. Oh dear,life is full of tough decisions!
