Seat Reservations from Zagreb to Split (Croatia)

but for sure we’ll never buy it again! You can thank Croatian railways for making their domestic trains unavailable to book abroad :( Sure. But still Interrail shouldn’t say at their website that is available. Plus no support from them after we purchased the tickets.

Seat Reservations from Zagreb to Split (Croatia)

Thanks for answer! The only problem is that we gonna be only one day in Zagreb and in the same day we need to departure to Budapest so it may not be so easy as it was in your case. And yes - bus sounds like a better option, true! It’s just this is not why we bought IR pass though… but for sure we’ll never buy it again!

INTERRAIL IS A NIGHTMARE! Seat reservations in Croatia

The thing is we’ll be only one day in Split so no chance to buy in advance. That’s why I am saying that in this case interrail is awful solution to travel. Very stressful. Plus it is extremly stupid to be honest: we have to come to Croatia to buy seat reservation in Croatia!…Seriously? Abut Zagreb-Budapest, as I said - we spend 2 days to buy ANYTHING and it is not possible. Also via OBB - try to buy that...: Good luck!:)

Seat Reservations from Zagreb to Split (Croatia)

We want to travel from Zagreb to Split on the 07:35 train on 2nd July. In the Interrail reservation tool it’s saying reservations are required, but it won’t let me make a reservation. I get the same message if I search for the same journey on different days and at different times. Does this mean all the seats are reserved on all the trains?! Or will I be able to reserve seats at Zagreb Station when we arrive a couple of days before? Thanks for your help. Below is the message I’m seeing: Prices unavailable No price results were found for this connection. It is possible that all pass holder seats are sold out. Please try searching for another connection or check 'More information' and try other ways to book this seat reservation. If no pass holder seats are available anymore you need to buy a separate full fare ticket to board.  Hi! We have now the same issue! That’s why we decided to buy bus and waste a day o traveling with IR pass. Did you resolve your problem? Did you buy seat reserv

INTERRAIL IS A NIGHTMARE! Seat reservations in Croatia

Booking seat reservations at a ticket office in Croatia is usually not a problem at all. Which trains (route, date, departure time) would you like to book? Thanks for asking:) We wanted to book: Split - Zagreb, 19/08/2022, 8:31-14:54 (HZPP) and Zagreb-Budapest, 19/08/2022, 16:35-22:16 (MAV). For the second one it looks like MAV doesn’t sell seat reservations online for IR pass holders; they sell seat reservations only with normal tickets but only as an option (cause reservations aren’t compulsory there).

INTERRAIL IS A NIGHTMARE! Seat reservations in Croatia

Hi! My point exactly! It’s not comfortable and secure to not having seat reservations in advance.In our case we received confirmation from InterRail customer service that booking a seat in Croatian trains (HZPP) is possible via their platform etc. but HZPP replied that… it’s not. I believe much more to HZPP. Plus if you just take a look (as logged-in users) into IR platform or app you will soon see that if you choose trains from Split to Zagreb there’s no way to book a seat online. There’s always the same message and here you will find that all IR global pass holders have the same issue for long time and nobody is doing anything with that:https://community.eurail.com/travelling-by-train-65/seat-reservations-from-zagreb-to-split-croatia-4923 https://community.eurail.com/eurail-interrail-passes-41/seat-reservation-from-zagreb-croatia-to-split-croatia-not-working-4428 We don’t want to risk overloaded trains or simply not enter the train that’s why we dediced to buy bus even we have valid
