I want to order TGV 5482, from PARIS AEROPORT CDG2 TGV ROISSY (France) to STRASBOURG (France) on 2024.10.04 I have a Eurial Pass, but the system displays the following message:"Prices are unavailableNo price results were found. Pass holder reservations may be sold out for this connection, but there are other ways to check for available seats—more info below our timetable. ＂ When will reservations be open?

I’m travelling next month across Italy, Austria, and Switzerland.  We’ve purchased our Euro pass but I need to know if we still need to print tickets for legs that don’t require reservations.  For instance, travelling between Vienna and Salzburg.I just don’t want to get onto a train only to find out that we needed a printed ticket before boarding even though we have a 5-day pass.Can anyone help???

Hi,I have just purchased a 4 day 2nd class global pass (didn’t activated it yet). I want to upgrade it for 1st class, what is the procedure?

Bonjour,J’essaye de réserver, en vain, depuis quelque mois un trajet de la France vers l’Espagne (Madrid ou Barcelone peut importe). Et encore maintenant à un mois du départ cela parait impossible, le passage vers l’Espagne ne semble pas possible. Que dois-je faire ? Je commence à désespérer… J’ai lu sur un autre topic qu’en demandant en gare le jour du départ c’était possible, mais j’imagine mal mes vieux parents s’organiser ainsi au dernier moment. A l’aide !Hello,I've been trying to book a trip from France to Spain (Madrid or Barcelona, whatever) for a few months now. And even now, with a month to go before departure, it doesn't seem possible to get through to Spain. What should I do? I'm beginning to despair... I read on another topic that asking at the station on the day of departure was possible, but I can't imagine my old parents organising it at the last minute. I need help!

Dear community ! I am searching for a good route to go from Carcassonne to Hamburg. I only find routes with a lot of change and too less time between I worry to not make the connections.  i found a sleeper train from Toulouse to Paris is there a sleeper one from Paris to Hamburg?  Thanks you for your help 🙏 safe travels   

Bonsoir tout le monde, Je voulais savoir ce que signifie le message "Le train n'est pas ouvert à la réservation" sur le site de la DB (int.bahn.de) quand je veux réserver des places assises pour un trajet Montpellier-Munich par exemple. Ça me propose que la réservation d'une place assise entre Stuttgart et Munich, donc la fin du trajet...Est-ce que c'est parce qu'il n'y a plus de place réservable ? Que les billets ne sont pas encore en vente ? Sur le site de la compagnie ferroviaire Autrichienne OBB ça me fait pareil, il me propose uniquement une réservation sur le Stuttgart-Munich.  La SNCF (compagnie française) ne vend pas de réservation de place seule pour ses TGV/TER... ? Merci de votre aide 

I would like to know how many times I can travel to/from Italy on a one-country pass for Germany.I am a citizen/resident of Italy. I see that OBB/DB trains to/from Venice, Verona etc are included in the pass. Does it work as for the global pass, so that I only have one inbound and one outbound trip available, or can I travel between Italy and Germany as many times as I like?To make the question clearer, I need to travel to Germany and back to Italy twice in two weeks. I would then buy a 4-day one-country Germany pass. Can I simply use the pass for both trips? Or do I need to buy regular tickets from home to the German border (Kufstein I would guess) for one of the trips?Also, is there a reservation fee  on the trains from Italy to Munich, as with the global pass?All this is not really explained in the dedicated one-country pass page.Thank you for your advice.

Hi, I have made reservations on NJ 403 which is running from Amsterdam Central to Basel SBB. I have got 2 berths both of which topmost ones- one each side, in a 6-berth-couchette.  I used  https://www.vagonweb.cz/razeni/vlak.php?zeme=SBB&kategorie=NJ&cislo=403&nazev=&rok=2024   for checking berth position.  How can i change the berth numbers to lower or at least middles?TIA

I’m considering whether to buy an Interrail pass. I have already decided on the journeys I want to take and they are on fixed dates to fixed places. When I look for the route in the Interrail planner I can’t find the stations - I’ve read the FAQ and see that you can ‘add stations manually’. But before I buy the pass I’m wondering what happens if/are any lines not covered?

Bonsoir à tous J'envisage de partir 2 semaines le mois prochain pour faire un petit tour en Europe centrale. Je me suis bien renseigné sur le pass Interrail, les trucs à savoir, etc. Malheureusement j'ai beau me creuser la tête, je n'arrive pas à me décider sur le nombre de pays à faire et sur mon itinéraire...  Comme je vous ai dit j'envisage de profiter de 2 semaines de vacances (en juin) pour partir découvrir quelques pays. Je pensais faire l'Allemagne (Munich/Berlin), Prague, Vienne, Bratislava, Ljubljana, Budapest. J'hésite entre 7 et 10 jours de pass et sur l'ordre des villes. En sachant que je vais rester environ 2 nuits par ville et que l'Italie et la Suisse ne m'intéressent pas vraiment.  Des conseils ou idées ? Merci beaucoup ! 

Hello everyone, my name is Nathan and I will be travelling with 6 of my friends all over the Europe this august between the 1st and 17th of August. We planned to do : Paris → Amsterdam  Amsterdam → Berlin Berlin → Vienne Vienne → Ljubljana Ljubljana → Zagreb Zagreb → Budapest Budapest → Prague and then take a flight between Prague and Paris We will stay in each place for 1 to 2 nights and sometimes take a train during the night in order to not pay any hostel (for ex. between Berlin and Amsterdam). However, when we try to reserve any seats, it says that we don’t need any reservations. Does that mean that we just go to the train and enter it hoping there are any places left ? If there any places available, can we just stay in the corridor or we must go out ? If we must go out of the train, we are in a pretty sh*tty situations since we have all of our hostels reserved in advance. How does we active a travel-day on our pass ? We just have to show our phone with the reservations ? 

I want to visit a lot of countries, but I don’t know where better xD, please tell me if there are routes where the FERRY with Interrail is free or for almost a penny

Hi I am going to go on my bucket list trip in Europe in August/September this year. I am 65 years of age and be travelling with my wife. I am going to buy the 7 day Eurail pass for this trip.

Hello, I’m preparing for my Interrail this summer and I am booking some seat reservations. Is it normal to pay 15 euro for a 40 min train? I find it kind of expensive to pay 30 euros for two trains when the total travel time is 2 hours, when I have already paid for my Interrail pass. I did not find it expensive in other countries.

How can I indicate on external sites that I have an Interrail ticket? This is so poorly stated. It is not attractive at all to travel like this. What a hassle.

Hi,I am travelling to Italy, Switzerland & France. During this time I will be using trains and buses to travel from one place to another.My question here is if EURAIL pass covers the following train journeys completely or just provides some discount.“Venice-Como-Zurich-Rhine Falls- Lucerne- Interlaken-Paris. I will also be travelling to Mt. Titlis, Grindelwald, Lauterbrannen and Lake Brienz.”Additionally, Once I purchase the EURAIL pass can I directly hop on any train or do I have to make reservations first? If I need to make reservations then is there a particular website from where I do that or it can be any third party website like Omio, Trainline etc.? I understand that this question might have been asked multiple times but I am confused on this topic.

I would then take EuroStar morning train from London St Pancras at 6.30 for Paris.Could you please help answer.1.    If this night journey from Edinburgh to Paris will count as 1-day or 2-day travel for Interrail Pass? Do ‘7 pm rule’ still exists? Would appreciate, if one can suggest how to best utilize my first day with Interrail pass.2.    Can I make reservation on 1st class of Eurostar and in Bernina express (for Switzerland) , if I am holding 2nd class interrail pass? TIARegards

Need to reserve seats on 9am Budapest to Ljubljana train on 1st August.it says on ÖBB no ticket available?any ideas 

Hello,I have one day left on an Interrail Europe pass. I would like to use it to travel from Cork to Belfast and back on the same day.from my reading on this forum it seems that tit is acceptable to use inbound/outbound on the one travel day. However I cannot add these trips to my journey or even find them on the planner - is this normal ? 

I have been looking at reserving seats on this route via either the Eurail or Rail Europe website.Seats can be booked on Eurail using my Eurail global pass, but on Rail Europe it says that the rail pass is not valid, for the same trip/date/time.Any reason why the Eurail global pass would not be recognised by Rail Europe for this journey - it was for some time previously?  

Hi, I am planning my first Interrail trip for this summer (~5 to 16 August, approx). My desired trip would be something such as: Lyon (departure city, I am not staying there) → Mannheim → Munich → Budapest → Bratislava → Vienna → Strasbourg → Lyon (arrival). I am flexible on dates and visited cities. I would like to book night trains in this trip, and Munich - Budapest then Vienna - Strasbourg seem to fit perfectly. However I can’t book any using the nightjet website: “no offers available”, but there are offers in July. Do you know what is going on there ? I’ve tried contacting OBB via their phone number but no answer. Thanks!

I gather (from the angels that hover over this forum) that it’s best to wait until just before boarding each train to activate that journey.As AnnaB, for example, put it in a reply on this forum last year:The advice from the experienced travellers in the community is also never to activate a travel day, that is connect a journey to your pass and create the ticket (QR code), until just before boarding the train, otherwise you might lose a travel day if your travel plans change at a late stage.So i’ve activated my pass; all 10 travel days are listed. I linked the journeys to them and then unlinked them again. The travel days are therefore “empty” in that they are waiting for me to reattach the journeys in “My Trip”, but they still exist. In “My Pass” under “Travel days” it says “10/10 used”. (I can cancel them and i can still deactivate the pass, so no probs there).However, this is where i’m (characteristically) confused:I’d like to leave those 10 empty travel days as they are, and add j
