last possible date of departing

Hi! I got the flexipass through DiscoverEu. My last possible departure date is August 31st. Is it in any way possible I can delay it one day? I mean is it possible to leave on the 1st of September instead? Or do I lose my pass if I don't leave on the 31st?

flexipass with a group

Hi! I applied for the pass (with DiscoverEu) with 3 other friend and got it. Unfortunately the leader of our group can no longer come along on the trip. What does this mean? Can the rest of us still go on the trip? What if one of us wants to go on a different route?

New here, and I need help with the ferrys

Hey all, I’m planning to depart from Edinburgh towards Amsterdam (plus additional destinations after).I thought it would be great to take the ferry from Harwich to Hoek van Holland, but the travel planner is not showing me the ferry, even when I specifically make a stop at Harwich.Do you know if the ferry is covered?

london to Naples over 2 days + reservations

HiI am planning to travel with a friend from London to Naples over 2 days in mid May.Day 1 we will be able to get 1030 eurostar.We would like to stop over possibly in Geneva. We don't want to arrive too late as an early start will be needed on day 2 to Naples  On the return leg, we are planning an early start from Naples to Paris, as the on final day of the 4 day pass we will need to arrive in London sufficiently early to catch a train up to Newcastle. Please could anyone suggest a route that minimises reservation fees but not make thae arrivals too late. Thank you

Is first class really better than 2nd in Italy, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Slovakia, Poland?

Hi all, my first post here, thanks for any information you could give to me. My wife, my 16 years old daughter, and I, are going to travel a little bit more than 2 months in Europe, by Train, car, ferries, ..The idea is to stop several days (for example 7 to 10 days) in some specific destination : Greece (Paros), South Italy, Albania (not in the pass), Croatia (split, krk). And less days in other destination : Slovakia, Poland, Czech Republic..We probably will use train most of the time, and I was wondering if, for those countries, 1st class is realy more interesting than 2nd one.Is someone knows both 1rst class and 2nd class in some of those countries?Thanks, and sorry if my question is a stupid one!Ronan

How to reserve trains in UK?

I am very new to interrail passes. I will be travelling from London to Cambridge one day, and then from Cambridge to Edinburgh another day. I am very confused, how do I reserve seats for these trains? And do I need to, really? How does one know if seat reservation is needed or not? If I don’t need to reserve, do I just show up on the train with my pass on the rail planner and show that one if they ask?

Mrs

Novice travellers! Please help!My husband and I are from South-Africa and will be going to Europe to visit 6 countries to celebrate our 50th birthdays. We depart 16 March 2025 from SA to Amsterdam and return on 17 April 2025 from Paris back to SA. That gives us one month. Our itenerary will look something like this. 17-20 March in Amsterdam. The evening of the 20th I'm considering an over night train to Munich. 2 nights in Munich. Then 3 nights in Austria. From there 5 nights in Switzerland. 1 Night in Venice, 4 nights in Florence, 5 nights in Rome and 6 nights in Paris (I'm running the Paris marathon on 13 April 2025) Should we buy the one month Eurail Pass? And would that allow us to just hop on and off the trains?

Débutante : Paris/Porto/Lisbonne

Bonjour, très grande première pour moi pour voyager en Interrail. On m'a dit qu'avec deux enfants de moins de 12 ans c'était intéressant financièrement. J'aimerais partir visiter Porto/Lisbonne du 14 au 18/19 avril prochain mais je ne comprends pas tout. 3/4 jours de pass devrait suffire. Quand je regarde le Paris Hendaye, il m'indique complet peu importe le jour ou alors je n'ai pas accès, comment est-ce possible ? Puis j'aimerais un Hendaye en train de nuit, et je n'arrive pas à aller jusqu'à Porto via l'appli, ça ne me le propose pas. Et le prix semble exorbitant (200€) ... Pouvez-vous m'aider à organiser mon voyage ? L'idée n'est pas de visiter Hendaye mais de tester les voyages en trains avec les enfants qui vont adorer, de tester le train de nuit, et donc de visiter  2/3 jours Porto et Lisbonne. L'idéal était de ne pas dépasser 1000€ de budget, je ne sais même pas si c'est possible. J'ai beaucoup de mal à comprendre quoi prendre et comment planifier/réserver. Un grand merci !

Italian Frecce & Italo, "Palinuro" station?

Does anyone have any reason to believe that “Palinuro” is a frecce/italo station? This map seems to indicate it is a frecce stop between Sapri in Calabria and Vallo della Lucania in Campania, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere in Trenitalia or Italo’s system.https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/25/Mappa_della_rete_servizi_Le_Frecce_e_Italo.jpg

interrail app

Hi So I have my pass and I have booked my 1st journey in July( the euro star.)The reservation is not showing on the interrail app ? Not sure why?Also when I'm trying to search for trains it's saying no trains available. Or there is one option which is alot longer than it should be and €108 pp to reserve a seat!! This is from Paris to Nice. Can anyone help me? Is it because it's too early and more options will come available? When I go on the correct train website for that place it brings more up. I'm just getting confused. Would appreciate any help.  Many thanks

Which train line can i use in Engliand with Eurail pass.

I am planning to visit Windermere, Canterbury, Dover, Bath, and Chesterfield from London. I’m wondering if I can use the Eurail Pass for these trips. When I use the trip planning tool on the Eurail website to search for those cities (except for Bath), they don’t show up, so I’m not sure if it’s possible. However, all the cities appear on the Rail Planner app. Also, I’m wondering if I can access lounges if I purchase a first-class ticket.

Help Needed with Train Trip Planning MUC/STUTTGART > SAN SEBASTIAN > MAD / And MAD > LYON > MUC

Hi everyone, I’m planning a train trip and could use some advice since I’m not sure if my itinerary is even possible. and i am a little lost.Here’s what I’m aiming for: Outbound Trip:• Stuttgart > Paris• Paris > Hendaye (Stopover)• Hendaye > San Sebastián (Stopover)• San Sebastián > Madrid Return Trip:• Madrid > Montpellier or Lyon (Stopover)• Montpellier or Lyon > Munich Questions:1. Which connection would you recommend for the return trip—Montpellier or Lyon?2. I don’t have much time, so I’m only considering the fastest connections. I’ve read that reservation fees can be quite expensive for these types of trips. Can anyone tell me approximately how much these fees might be?3. Are there any other fees I should be aware of besides the reservation fees? I noticed some connections on eurail.com were grayed out and couldn’t be booked—does anyone know why? Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!
