I want to travel from Paris to Madrid but I want to leave Paris in the evening. However there is no direct connection so there only connections like the one from the link below. There you need to change the train in the morning. So my question is if i book this whole journey in advance (2 different trains) do i need 1 or 2 travel days from my global pass?https://www.interrail.eu/de/plan-your-trip/interrail-timetable?ol=Paris+%28France%29&ov=8724855&dl=Madrid+City+%28Spain%29&dv=7199999&vl=&vv=&t=1721210451173&ar=false&rt=&tt=&mc=&mct=1

Hello! Next month I want to take the AVI from Marseille to Madrid. Unfortunately you cannot reserve seats in advance. I don't arrive in Marseille until the evening and the train leaves at 8 a.m. Has anyone ever taken this connection and booked a seat reservation at the train station? Can this be done at the ticket machine? I don’t know what to do and DB and renfe couldn't really help me... Thank you for your tipps :)

HelloLooking at another trip, this time;London  → HamburgHamburg → CopenhagenCopenhagen → CologneCologne → LondonObviously there is always the Eurostar suppliment/reservation but I’m getting mixed messages about the 8 euro reservation on the ICE’s from Brussels and back to Paris, some searches say required and some say recommended. It’s end of July/August so may be better not to risk it but I wonder if I’m missing a trick?Thank you in advanceSarah

Dear community,I would like to travel with interrail from London to Paris in the end of July. However, the reservation system says that it is not possible to reserve any seats on the eurostar any more. What are my options to get to Paris now? As I have a specific date that I have to be in Paris, I am not flexible with that.Could I take a train to Dover, take the ferry to Calais and then take a train from Calais to Paris again? I think train tickets are not yet available for that route yet. I guess that I have to pay for the ferry ticket extra and cannot use interrail for that?If there are any other options, it would be great, if you let me know. Thank you very much.

Hello everyone,is there a way to get a trip report after my mobile Pass expires? I have to fill a travel expenses claim and I need to prove that I used the Pass just for two days.Thank you in advance. 

Next month my family and I will be travelling from the US to the UK. It will be my wife and I and our two children aged 7 and 10. We intend to spend 11 days in the UK only, then return to the US. No additional European travel required.We have decided to travel by train and had intended to buy a Britrail pass (8 day flexi pass) and I’ve put together an outline for each day’s travel. Even though we would only be travelling on seven of the days, the 8-day Britrail pass seemed the best option.Then an ad popped up on Facebook advertising Eurail. So I started to investigate and the pricing is considerably cheaper, plus I can select a 7-day flexible pass.So are there any material differences between the two services? The only real difference that I have found so far is that Heathrow Express is included in the Britrail Pass and not Eurail. London Underground is covered by neither. But we need to travel out of King’s Cross and will need to take the tube either way (either from Heathrow with Eur

We are thinking of buying a Global Interrail pass for a journey this year.  Unless I have misunderstood can I use the pass for travel from York to London and then Eurostar as well as travel in Europe? Thank you

I see that Interrail pass holders get a 30% discount on the Flåm railway in Norway. However, I don’t see any way to book discounted tickets in advance. It’s not possible on the Interrail app. The Flåm railway website redirects to www.norwaysbest.com which only sells full price round-trip tickets. It tells you to book on vy.no for single tickets but that website of course does not do Interrail discounts. Any ideas? Turning up at the ticket office in midsummer hoping for availability is too risky.

If less than 180 days - why won't it let me book? The tickets are available but displays this warning instead of letting me select a price. 

Apologies for the novice question. I am travelling from London to Athens using the global pass. It feels sensible to work back so I am trying to book my last journey first - Thessaloniki to Athens on 26 July. I have seen some info saying you can only book from a local greek train station (very unhelpful if true) and other info that you can book online in advance. I have looked at the Hellenic website but that doesn’t show any trains for the 26th July but this is a popular route. Surely that can’t be right?My two questions:Where can I find the times of these trains because no where seems to say they have any trains on this route on this day, which seems strange?Can I book a ticket in advance for this train, if so what is the best website to do which takes interail global pass?All help greatly appreciated.   

Buenas. Soy de Costa Rica y quiero hacer un viaje a Europa. No conozco nada de Europa. Por favor me brindan recomendaciones de conexiones para conocer lo más que pueda. Gracias 

Hi,I had used the Rail Planner app on my previous trip with no issues. I've changed phone (now running Android 14) and have successfully installed the Rail Planner, it starts fine asking what pass I have (Eurail/interrail/none), but whichever option I tick, when I then click on the yellow "Next" ("Suivant" in french) button at the bottom, I get presented with a page "Keep informed" ("Tenez-vous informé(e)" in french), and whichever combinations of notifications I select, strictly nothing happens when I click on the "Save" ("Enregistrer") button at the bottom.This means I can't actually get past this initial configuration, so have no access to the actual functionalities of the app, and hence can't use my mobile interrail pass I have just purchased.Many thanks for any help in getting the app into operation mode !Kind regards,Pascal

Hi all,This is my first time going to Europe and I’ve never purchased a eurail pass before. I will be in Europe for one month. I need to travel to Paris from Spain for 4 days, from Spain to Rome for 4 days, then to Florence 4 days, Positano 4 days, and back to Rome where I fly home. Is it better to buy a Global pass or a 10 day in 2 months pass? Any advice you can give would be helpful.Annette

Thinking of getting an Interrail-Eurail pass and you're trying to be as cautious as possible considering how much money you're going to have to put out before you even get started?? Good for you for checking! Now know this . . . the Interrail-Eurail PASS IS A SCAM!!!!! Here's why. A few months ago my husband & I bought 2 passes. Yes, we read all the fine print. As early as possible on the very 1st day we were allowed to make reservations, we tried to do just that, but shockingly, we couldn't because seats were already sold out!!! How are seats already sold-out when seat reservations had just opened for Interrail-Eurail passes???!!! We tried and tried, but nothing. We read somewhere on the website to go to our nearest train station. That's what we did and were told that only a very few seats are allotted for Interrail-Eurail pass holders. Then, what exactly is the point of selling (from Google) OVER 600,000 passes? I'll tell you what it is. It's simply a devious way to make (by make

I see only on train from Venice to milan on aug 4th morning. Is it because its Sunday or is it because I am checking too early?I am using global pass.thanks.

Can I buy two discounted passes (before 5 March) and use for two separate trips (before 11month activation) please? e.g. a trip to France and Italy in June and a separate trip to France and Spain in September. Thanks.

Hi. We purchased the 2 month global pass (plus upgrade for 100% refund). I used this site for seat reservations and now realise that I cannot confirm actual seat numbers on this site. How do I cancel this request to receive a full refund for the seat reservations (and) what site do you recommend to book actual seat numbers. Ideally I would like to see the seat layout of the class that I am booking. Thank you once again for your assistance.

Hello everybody,I want to book the ferry from Travemünde (Germany) to Malmö (Sweden) for my Interrail trip.I red on this link (https://www.interrail.eu/de/plan-your-trip/tips-and-tricks/trains-europe/ferries/finnlines) that I can book the ferry from Travemünde to Malmö, and using the “RAIL” code, I will receive a 50% discount on the booking of the ferry, but on the finnlines website the code isn’t valid.Does anybody know why and if there is another valid Interrail Code to receive a discount? Thank you for your responses :)  

Hi Friends,  Just wanted to check if there are any possible discounts on buying Eurorail and interrail tickets. Thanks
