How soon we need to buy if we have a travel booked in April 2025?soon we buy is better? Please suggest? question 2 - not able to see all trains in rail planner app but I can see few trains for April 2025 on EU rail website, why is that so and how soon in advance we can see trains on app? question 3 - not able to see all trains on EU rail website as well but I can see more trains on direct train website , why is that so as these trains are not matching my timings when I need to go as per my plans. question 4 - pass needs to be activated on day of travel as far as I know.

Hi, I was wondering if it’s worth me buying the Swiss Travel Pass as I already plan to buy the EUrail global pass. My travel plans are:Copenhagen - Stockholm - Kiruna - Narvik - (fly from Tromso) London - Paris - Interlaken - Zermatt (Glacier Express) - Milan (will day trip from Milan to Lake Como or some else) - Rome then flying home.I will be staying in Interlaken. My days will look something like:Mount Rigi, Gratweg Stoos if it’s open (it will be early January), Lucerne Grindelwald First, walking around to Lake Bachalpsee, Iseltwald I’m still deciding which villages, but mainly Mannlichen, Lauterbrunnen, Murren, Grimmelwald, Wengen. Is it worth me buying a Swiss Travel Pass for 3 days if I already have the EUrail global pass for 7 days in 1 month if this is what my itinerary will look like? Or should I go for the other Swiss travel pass options like the Half Fare? My hotel will also give me a travel card? I’m not entirely sure what that’ll include either. Any advice is appreciated,

We know our community members enjoy hearing about innovations in the rail industry - so we created a round-up of exciting highlights from our visit. InnoTrans is renowned as the world’s biggest trade fair centered on the rail transport industry. Held every two years at the Messe Berlin exhibition centre, this year’s event took place from September 22 to 25, and we had the pleasure of attending. Here's a round-up of the exciting highlights from our visit. InnoTrans: Impressive Scale Our visit to Berlin was a fantastic opportunity for networking, learning about the latest industry developments, and reconnecting with familiar faces. We quickly realized the sheer scale of InnoTrans exceeded our expectations. With an impressive turnout of nearly 3,000 exhibitors from over 50 countries and around 170,000 visitors from 133 different countries, it really gave a great sense of just how complex and vibrant the industry is.

Hello, I am trying to make a reservation for the RENFE AVE from Marseille to Madrid. On interrail.eu I get the message: Currently, reserving seats for journeys in Spain is only possible at Spanish train stations or by calling RENFE directly.And happyrail.com does not show me any options.I also talked to Deutsche Bahn customer service. They say that RENFE tickets can currently not be issued through Deutsche Bahn.Is this only a temporary problem? Can I hope reservation will be possible in a few days?Thanks, Thomas
Hello. On December 20th we will begin a family trip. On the website it says that you can reserve seats 60 or 90 days in advance, but when I enter the date it tells me that it has not yet enabled reservations for that date. We have a long route planned with Eurail and I am worried about not having information.I find the app and the website very unfriendly, no one from the company can solve anything for you, if I had known how complex it was I would not have bought the passes with this company.If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.Thank you so much.Laura

Hello, i’m currently planing a french and spanish Interrail trip and i have some questionsFor the first time i want a mobile pass. Is it true, that i can buy that one today, can buy seat reservations and still choose the first travel day later? I’ve heard, that there are quite high security standards at Spain trains. Can someone explain to me, if this is true and how this works and how long before the departure you should arrive at the station and ho Seat reservations: Just in case, i have to adjust something later. First is it possible to reverse seat reservations bought by the Interrail app and if so, how high are the fees therefore? The Interrail website isn’t clear on that for me. In generell, does anybody have an idea how high the reservation fees are for Spain and France? In generell i would be very thankful for any hints about using trains at France and Spain.
When I try to change my reservation. I don’t know why the day still have other choice, but system cannot show even I try the different time.

Hello friends,I’m planning my first trip to Europe and would love some guidance. I currently live in the United Kingdom and am planning a 4-day trip to France and possibly another destination before heading back to London.Could you suggest the best travel pass for this journey?

Hello, I am from Germany and would like to travel to Switzerland in April. The plan is for me to travel to Chur on the first day. On the second day I would like to take the Bernina Express from Chur to Tirano and back again. I will leave Chur on the third day. Is a Global Pass worth it? Or should I book each train ticket separately?
From 21:00 on Saturday 23 November to 20:59 on Sunday 24 November, trains may be cancelled or changed, due to a national strike by the staff of the FS Group, Trenitalia, Trenitalia Tper and Trenord.Industrial agitation can lead to changes to the service even before it starts and after it ends.Alternatively, they can reschedule their journey, under similar transport conditions, as soon as possible, subject to seat availability.Information on connections and services can also be obtained through the Trenitalia app, the Infomobility section of the Trenitalia website, the Trenord website or through the Trenord App, the TrenitaliaTper website, the toll-free number 800 89 20 21, as well as at ticket offices and customer service staff.
Hi, I'm Leonardo and i'm 22 yrs old and i am a university student, i'm planning my interrail trip and I'd be happy to find some friends to share this experience. Since i didn't visit much european places, this is the perfect occasion. I'd prefer visiting eastern europe (i'm departing from Italy) but i'm open to suggestions, for instance it's not even a problem if i visit other places. I want to start the trip in may or at the end of july since i have to finish my exams. This is my insta if you want to write to me so we can be friends and depart together: leonardo_.nuzzi
When will the timetable from December 16th be updated?
Hello, unfortunately I have another question about reservations for trains in Spain: Currently I can't make any reservations via interrail.eu as well as happyrail.com, regardless of the connection and time. The results on happyrail look like the attached screenshot for each connection/time. Is this problem known or has it ever occurred before? Is there anything that can be done?Many thanks and best regardsMarcel
Hi I need HELP! I’m last-minute (I had a rough itinerary before but reality is setting in...) planning my travel pass to travel from Lisbon (more specifically, I’m in Alcabideche right now) to Bruges, leaving tomorrow Nov 19th and arriving *ideally* late-night Nov 20th. I have 2 days left on my Eurail Global Pass that I want to use, but this route seems so complicated with its many options/side-routes, expensive seat reservations, and lack of night train (my preference/ideal) options with my timeline. It seems it may be better to bus into France, which I am willing to do if it is inexpensive, but ideally I’d use my remaining 2 travel days with minimal additional expenses on seat reservations and overnight accommodation. Has anyone done this route or a similar one (Portugal to Belgium) with success recently??? Should I just take the L and take a bus somewhere into France and then train to Bruges from there?! I will accept any and all suggestions, thank you!!
