If it is active by today, then the validity has started. Do you have a continuous pass or a flexi pass? When do you plan to travel? A flexi pass

Hi there,thanks for the response. I didn't realise this about the activation and because I was panicking about booking trains, I activated my pass thinking that would help me with the reservations issue. See attached screenshots. How do I reverse this as I don't want to lose one of my days? It says activate by 5 july (which is today)

If those are the only 4 trips you will take it will probably be cheaper to just buy them as single tickets and it will definitely be easier, all of those need to be booked in advance, London - Amstrdam in particular will likely sell out well before it runs. Thanks for your response! Where can I buy single tickets from?    It is usually a good idea to use the sites of the actual operators so:   London - Amsterdam: eurostar.com   Of course in the case of certain operators their websites are just a massive ball of **** so I’d say avoid SNCF like the plague.  Nice - Paris: https://www.b-europe.com/EN or https://www.raileurope.com  Paris - Barcelona:  https://www.raileurope.com or https://www.renfe.com/es/en Prague - Munich, either wait until in Prague as previous poster suggests (availability on this route at short notice seems quite good) or buy from https://www.cd.cz/en Looks like €60-€120 for Eurostar, €50 Nice - Paris, €100-€130 Paris - Barcelona and €25 Pra

You did not say the most important: WHEN. In fact for this summer you had better replan, as after most of covid restrictions fell and due to giant staff shortages in about all transport its overloaded. YOu also did not plan very smart, as you double track-at usually high cost most of the hi-speed railline from Paris to south-only near Marseille it splits going east to Nice and west to ESpana-plus that the effort to get REServ for just this train is the highest there is. Its likely better to put Paris in between Lon and AMS. EUrail is for those who live out of the continent EUrope-so as long as you have official govmtal proof you are registered in Ozzieland its OK. But as such it does not make much difference-Irish living in IE buy INterRail=much the same, except that it only allows 2 days /trips in the home country-you did not mention any. Before you even start the buyapass process, better check first IF seats are available on your days wished-as it seems due to booked flites you must
