Hi! I’m going to be travelling with my interrail pass, together with 2 of my parents (Eurail pass holders) and now we are on the stage of trying to book all the necessary reservation seat. I have several questions:So after learning how to work with the app, is it true that in the interrail app itself, we only need to save the trip routes in our app, then slide and activate the yellow QR code on the day of travel (this is to show the ticketing staff that we have the ticket for the train). Whereas for the reservation seat, we just need to purchase separately from the official website (e.g. SBB, DB, RailEurope, TrenItalia, etc). So later on we have an e-ticket of the number of the seat as well from these websites. Is this correct? I’m trying to book our first seat reservation (for the train of Paris Est -> Strasbourg on 23rd July at 06.52 A.M just like the one stated on the rail planner app). However, the I’m not sure if it’s possible to book seats for all three of us together as the w
Hello,I want to reserve the bicycle place in AVE train for traveling between Barcelona and Madrid on the 26 January. According to Renfe website, this is mandatory: “Keep in mind that you must add the Bicycle Add-on when you buy your AVE and Larga Distancia (long distance high-speed) tickets if the bicycle exceeds the maximum hand luggage dimensions, it is free! “https://www.renfe.com/es/en/travel/informacion-util/luggage/bicycles-and-kick-scooters-_non-electric_I already booked my seats from the interrail website, but the option to book the bicycle place was not present.On renfe website, I did not find a way to only book the bicycle place without buying a ticket...Anyone know how to book the bicycle space without buying a passenger ticket?Or do you have experience of taking AVE train without a reservation for bicycle or special luggage? did you managed to get in ?Thanks in advance :)
We are a family of 7. We only plan to travel on 2-3 day trips from Paris (Chantilly one day, Amiens another), and then the over night train on July 10th from Paris to Nice. Tickets are 160 Euro per person for that over night train so I planned to buy a Eurail pass for all of us for the overnight train at least. Not sure if we need a 3 day pass or just a one day pass for the night train, as the other trips are quite short. But I read that seat reservations for the night trains are limited for Eurail pass holders - How can I work out if the overnight train has space for us before I buy the Eurail pass? I don’t want to buy a pass then find I can’t book the seats for the trip I have planned! Thanks for your help
I have booked from Paris to Frankfurt on the Ice 10.52am from Paris Est on May 30th. We now have the opportunity to meet some French friends so want to push the time back. I went in to my DB portal to change the time to 13.51pm on TVG and got the message below. Is there ever a problem getting on the train with updated reservation/ticket? NoteClose dialogueWe do not currently check whether your ticket or seat are still valid on the alternative connection. For more information, please check the current Deutsche Bahn conditions of carriage

Hi every one,I want to go to Portugal from France, but there are no direct trains. I have to go through Spain. In that case, can I take a country pass, or do I have to take the global? Thank you for your help ++ Laure :)
I’m wanting to book two trips in Italy: Rome to Sulmona, and Rome to Trevi in July. When I put the information into the Eurail planner I get a message, “Sorry, we can’t find any trains that match your search.” Yet when I go on the Trenitalia website and search for those journeys there are many of them to choose from. Why are they available, but not on the Eurail app? Are they not covered by the pass, or are they not yet available for pass holders?
Hello everyone, I am receiving a warning that I need to add some locations manually in the Rail Planner application for the mobile pass. Not being able to see the train services in the application worries me. Could you please share your experiences with me about this issue and traveling to the Baltic countries. Thank you in advance, I wish you a pleasant trip.
First time I'm buying the Eurail pass. To use the trains that don't need to book a seat, do I need to make some kind of reservation? How does it work? Or is it just showing up on the day and time of the train and getting in? What if it's full? I need to make sure I will board.
Hello! Any advice for someone who's trying to get from Split to Florence to Athens? Is there a need for reservations? What is the best plan for this trip?Do i need to buy any other ticket other than the Interrail Pass?
Hi, is there any direct train from Rome to Paris? If not, what is the best way to go about it? Plane fare is pretty cheap from VCO-ORY but I have 2 carryons so would add up to the price. Looking for May 4th 00:00 onwards.
On the 23/7-2024 I will travel from Denmark, through Germany to Pau in southern France. An part of this journey will go from SW Germany to Paris. This could be ICE 9575 from Stuttgart (14:52) via Strasbourg to Paris Est (18:16). But I could also cross the border with a regional train (no reservation) and catch ICE 9575 in Strasbourg (at 16:31). This is often cheaper to cross the border with at regional train. But not on this one…If I book reservations through Raileurope.com, the train from Stuttgart to Paris costs €18. But the same train from Strasbourg to Paris costs €20. It is only €2, but it makes me wonder: Why is a longer journey cheaper than a shorter journey on the exact same train? Palle Dam
Hi, do I need to add something for the 29th? I was in assumption that this trip from Prague to Zurich would take up 2 travel days as it crosses 24:00. Without adding anything on 29th leaves me 6/7 travel days. Although I plan to take trains to Lucerne/ Titlis on 29th so either ways that will take up that day I guess?? Please let me know thanks.
Wir wollen von Österreich nach Polen mit dem Zug und das Fahrrad mitnehmen. Wir können aber weder auf der ÖBB noch auf der Polnischen Seite ein Ticket mit Fahrradmitnahme buchen. Hat hier wer Erfahrungen wie wir das buchen können. Hätten auch vor uns ein Global Ticket zu kaufen. Danke
Hello!I’m going to Italy with my aunt. I’m in Switzerland, and she lives in France. She’s coming to Switzerland by plane on Monday 29 April. We’re starting our trip from Switzerland, Wednesday 8 May. I bought her a global senior pass for 4 days.My question is: Can she use her Interrail after landing in Geneva on Monday and coming to Lausanne (so it’ll be her 1st day with her pass). And then, two days later, we’ll go to Napoli, Italy. (2nd day of her pass). We’ll leave Napoli Sunday 12 May (3rd day of her pass). And she’ll take her plane back to France on Monday, 13 May. So she’ll take again the train from Lausanne to Geneva, which are again 2 cities in Switzerland (4th day of pass?).➡️ Is it okay to use her 4 days of global pass like this ?Or does she need to buy the round trip train tickets for Geneva-Lausanne ?I asked 3 different people at the train station, but they gave me 3 different answers… So it’s why I’m coming to this wonderful community to hopefully get the right answer ✌
Hello guys, does anyone know any hotels where there is a code to enter, that is, there is no reception? in Italy, or for example Vienna, I know that there are options even with the key falling out of a special machine, you enter the code that you receive on booking. It’s just that I’m only 16 years old and I think without a copy of my parents’ passport and any signatures, they won’t rent the hotel to me, but entering with a code will save me.
I have been trying to book ferries for the Greek islands as I have a 4 days 1 month ferry pass. Using either of the two domestic ferry companies connected to this pass I can’t seem to find any routes to or from Milos. Milos doesn’t even come up as an available port when I type it in the ferry schedule finder. Milos is listed as a destination on Eurail, how do I book ferries to and from Milos?
Bonjour, je souhaite securiser l’acces au Pass et le dupliquer sur le telephone de mon épouse. Comment faire ?
Hello Eurail Community Team,Does Eurail Global pass cover local travel within cities trains / busses / trams as well?if yes, under what condition?and if No, how to do within city commuting? Thank youRegardsAlex
I’ve been planning on going through Rail Europe to make seat reservations for my trains involving France. I’m going from London to Toulouse and Toulouse to Zurich. I did find someone saying that their tickets/reservations from Rail Europe weren’t showing up in the system at the train station, and I hadn’t come across people saying this was an issue till now. I know everyone’s experience is different, but I am doing this solo so I’m trying my best to avoid hiccups. Which, one primarily is going through the official train operators and avoiding third parties. Does Rail Europe have any risks that come with making reservations with them rather than an official train operator? If I can, should I just make the reservations through b-Europe (I’m fine with the extra cost)? Also, some of the seat reservations I'm getting are through OBB even though they're not the official train operator for that train (SBB, DB, Trenitalia, etc.), are there any risks with that or will I be okay since it's still
Hi!I’m getting an error every time I reserve any ticket from Freiburg to Brussels on May 7th, tickets appear available in different options, I reserve my seats for both legs and when doing the payment it says it’s been a problem with the ticket and asks me to find another one. Is there anything I’m doing wrong? I had no problem with my other tickets. Thanks!
Hello, I reside in the Dominican Republic. I have a Eurail pass, for my wife and I. We want to travel during the month of July 2024 from Madrid to Barcelona, and from Barcelona to Paris. I must purchase both routes with Renfe. They tell me on the phone line that I must purchase them in person at the Station because I have the Eurail pass. Could you tell me if this information is correct? And, if so, how much would be the discount that Renfe would give me?
Hi there, I am travelling with my 15-year-old daughter on June 8th from Milan. I am trying to decide between staying in Salerno or Sorrento, and to save time will get the fast train from Milan to Salerno or Naples (transferring to local Sorrento train). We will then base ourselves in one place to explore for 3 days. I know this is not near enough time, so would appreciate thoughts on the benefit of location and ease of getting around via public transport to places of interest - particularly Pompeii (we won’t do Vesuvius). We have a Eurail pass that we will use for the fast trains, but believe it won’t work for local trains. As a Mum and daughter travelling alone, I am keen to ensure the safest options, where we can maximise our time, without running around too much and not enjoying just being in this beautiful part of the world. Any recommendations for favourite, reasonably priced accommodation in Salerno (walkable to train) or Sorrento would be appreciated. I have found a wonderful A
Hello, I can’t understand why this flight is not in the planner? Which one should I choose to make? the conductor will check it
Hello all, Myself and my partner are looking to travel between the following: Rome - Isle of Giglio - Pisa - Lake Como - Zurich (and then whilst in Zurich: a day trip out to Lichtenstein and a day trip out to Bern). As you can imagine, these train prices will all quickly add up, as they are mostly hours long in duration. With this in mind, I thought an EU Rail pass might be a better option, however we are struggling to find where we can check/search journeys between cities that would be included within the pass. Does anyone have any insights either a) on whether these journeys would be allowed/included? b) where to check? Thanks in advance x
