Solved

Hello!Currently traveling from Sweden to my home country France. As I didn’t start from France I didn’t use my outbound and so would like to use my outbound/inbound as 2 inbound (and 0 outbound) to travel one extra day in France.I have a 4 day ticket. My plan is to arrive from Germany to France (Strasbourg) on day 3. And go from Strasbourg to Lyon on day 4. Would that journey work?Thank you for the support

Hello, I have bought an interrail pass for 4 (2 adults + 2 children) and I would like to plan my trip to Spain for the Christmas holidays. But at the moment rail planner is not offering tickets for sale for these dates (between 27 December and 7 January), it seems that it's too early. The problem is that the trains are on sale on the websites of the national companies (SNCF and Renfe).I read on the forum that you can book via the national companies but I can't see how to book an interrail pass, they only offer to buy tickets at the normal price, as if you didn't have a pass... I can wait for the rail planner to offer them but by then the trains will be full. I'm afraid that time will go by and I won't be able to book any more journeys because everything will be full. Can you please tell me what to do? I'm getting very stressed about having a pass that I can't use. I thought it would be simple and that once I'd bought the pass it wouldn't be complicated to book seats, but I feel complet

Hola,Soy Eugene y es mi primer contacto con el mundo Interrail.Mi pareja y yo queremos hacer un Interrail de un mes por mi 60 cumpleaños. Es un proyecto que siempre lo hemos querido hacer y por diferentes motivos siempre lo hemos pospuesto.El 2024 es nuestro año😄*Primera duda: Yo hago los años en Septiembre 2024 y querría iniciar mi Interrail ese mes.Puedo comprar el pase antes de cumplir los 60 para utilizarlo cuando los tenga?*Que tipo de pase sería el óptimo?Queremos estar 1 mes de viaje y visitar 6 o 7 países. El pase de 7dias en 1 mes ( flexible ) sería suficiente?*Porque el pase continuo de por ej: 1 mes es que tienes que usarlo todos los días durante ese mes no?Como veis estoy muy perdida con el mundo Interrail.Planteo mis primeras dudas.Advierto que son infinitas.Espero conseguir planificar el viaje con vuestra ayuda.Gracias.Un saludo,Eugene    

Hello to all of you! I apologize in advance if something is not perfectly understood, as my native language is Spanish and I am using the help of a translator:I am coming to this blog because I am getting married the second week of April and we are planning to go to Eastern Europe for our honeymoon. We had thought of taking a plane to Prague and from there we would take a 5-day pass in a month and visit Bratislava, Busapest, Zagreb, Ljubljana and finish in Vienna, where we would take a plane back to Spain.The truth is that we are a bit afraid of venturing on a trip like this because we don't know the area and we haven't done any similar trip, but at the same time we are very excited about it.I wanted to know if you think it's a good trip to do in 15 days (spending approximately 3 days in each country, although we could make stops taking advantage of the interrail day in other cities) and basically any advice you could give me is really welcome: anything we need to know about offers or

I'm planning to go UK, France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria. May I know which of the above will provide food inside the train? And which services?

I plan to travel to Pisa Centrale from Firenzia S.M.N.and then travel back to Firenzia S.M.N. later in the same day. I understand that I will be using one travel day of my Eurail Global Pass for both journeys ( from and back to Florence) and not two travel days. Is that right?With Rail Planner and Eurail mobile app,  will the app automatically recognise or consider journeys in a single day, same day or 24 hours period as one travel day? Is there anything different from one journey per travel day?

Hi Community, good day!  I will be travelling to Europe this December for the first time and I purchased a Eurail pass for 4 days in 1 month. I am trying to book my seat reservation on b-europe but it is giving me an error message as shown below. Tried searching for the “conditions” they are referring to but to no avails. Would be super grateful if anyone know how I can get around this please?  

Hi! My friends and I have been waiting for the release of the train tickets for our trip in December, but there are still no tickets yet… Anyone knows whether the train operates around Christmas period? We are intending to travel from Paris to Rome. Any advice will be appreciated, thank you :)

I tried to book my trip from Paris to Nice but Cannot. I always got error. I saw a lot of people having same issue, need to call them but I can’t. I probably need to cancel and get refund if reservation can not make. But there is 50 euro fee taken…. 

I have a Eurail Global Pass and wish to book between Amsterdam and Paris on 9th December. I have read that there are limited 10€ seat reservations, otherwise it’s 20€, but when I use the b-europe website I am only seeing 36€ fares - this is with my Eurail 2nd class Pass listed! I have tried a variety of dates to see if it’s a quota thing, but they all seem to be the same. Searches on the Eurail site also min. of approx $56 (AUD). Hoping someone can help clarify! 

How do I get to Athens or is that impossible using the Eurail pass because of damaged tracks?

Hi guys, I’m from the Netherlands and now I am studying in England for 4 months. I want to go back to the Netherlands for Christmas somewhere in the lasts weeks of September. Then a week later I have to be back at school for 1 more week of lessons. After that I have to permanently return to the Netherlands. I was looking to buy a pass for three days so I can travel from UK → NL (day 1) back to UK (day 2) and then back to NL (day 3). But a friend of mine told me that the pass will be terminated when you return the country you leave from.  So my question is: Is it possible to depart from a country, then get back in that country, and then go back to your home country afterwards even if you already returned to the country you departed from?Of course this will all happen within a monthThank you so much for helping !

New to Eurail. Bought our tickets from Munich to Vienna through the Rail Planner app and when we went to make the seat reservations, I get a message at the end telling me they are sold out. We have a 1st class pass and tried booking 1st and 2nd class seat reservations in any configuration. Any suggestions? Will we get a seat? Or for that matter, will we get on the train? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The Birthdates for my self and another traveller are listed wrong. I am positive I entered them correctly, but somehow they were changed?I have emailed and contacted eurail via the chat bot several times over the past few months to resolve this issue. But I have not heard or received any help.Does anyone know if having a wrong birthdate listed will affect travel? Our trip is in a few weeks.Thanks! 

Hello!My home country is the UK. If I buy the global pass, can I travel from Liverpool to Paris, then Paris back to Liverpool?I’m aware there will be a €36 charge for my seat reservation. But, just wanted to check if the above is ok?I seen somewhere that you’re allowed one outbound journey with the global pass. I will be changing at London though, so will Liverpool to Paris count as one outbound journey? Or will it be counted as two (Liverpool → London → Paris).Thanks for your help! 

  HelloSo we arrived in Barcelona from Nice today. We decided to make better use of the travel day pass and go into downtown and back before midnight. We took a train out of Barcelo Sants train station. We needed to get off at the first stop. A few issues. The train numbers didn’t match up with our pass and the wickets wouldn’t recognize our QR codes, we ended up following people through. Do our passes work for those local trains?  Thx for any help.    

I am trying to add a trip on ICE123 from Amsterdam to Frankfurt. The app says that a supplement is needed, but links me to a page about 4 supplements, none of which apply to this trip. Is anyone able to point me in the right direction of which supplement needs to be purchased and where I can do this from? Many thanks

In my app now, I have two trips, one from earlier this year and one I just returned from.I think it’s nice to save old trips, since it can be used to remember what happened, etc, but it’s also a bit more work for each new leg, since I had to choose which trip to add it to.Can I remove old trips from the app, but save the contents somewhere else (typically cloud)?  My interrail.eu account only seems to hold old passes, not the actual trips.

Please tell me how to activate the pass. Is it okay to go to the station? (For example, go to the Rome Termini Station office and get the stamp??

estou prestes a passar 2 messes viajando pela Europa de trem. apenas que não fiz itinerário algum eu ganhei a viagem um dia atras e daqui 3 dias e a viagem alguém tem algumas recomendações. 

Hello, I am a Dutch student which is going to study in Germany. Because I'm required to do so I will be a registered resident in Germany as well as in the Netherlands. I want to use public transport often when I am in Germany so I would probably like to buy a global pass for the time being. However, I would also sometimes like to travel back to my home in the Netherlands with the European Sleeper nighttrain. Because I am registered in both countries, I would like to know if it would be possible to buy an additional Benelux Pass (as a German resident) and a Global pass (as a Dutch citizen) so that I can use my inbound/outbound trip of my global pass later? I don't know if this is practical, however, I would just like to know if it would be allowed to make a seat reservation at the European Sleeper nighttrain with a Benelux pass together with a Global pass so that I don't have to use my inbound/outbound trip yet.

I plan to travel between Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris and although my train journey on Rail planner app says “seat reservations required”, can I instead board the train without seat reservation?

Our trip is as follows: Need to know if this is achievable and we can find tickets and reservations. Also regarding hotels when do we book them. Do we confirm tickets first then book the hotels? Dec 9 London to AmsterdamDec 11 Amsterdam to ParisDec 14 Paris to GenevaDec 19 Geneva to MilanDec 21 Milan to VeniceDec 22 Venice to FlorenceDec 23 Florence to RomeDec 26 Rome to PragueDec 29 Prague to BerlinJan 2 Berlin to London 

Hi thereThis is our first time interrailing - my friend and I are in our 60’s and finding it long winded and confusing so I am turning to this community for enlightenment and hopefully guidance! I have booked 2 seats on 14.29 St Pancras Eurostar 25th September 2023. We wanted the earlier train but at the time of booking earlier was not available. I believe earlier is now available but on the Eurorail website where my booking is to be found it says there is no option to change. Is that correct? I find that quite surprising.  ALSO ! Having found the night train we wanted Wednesday 27th September Bruges to Vienna 1808hr - 0915hr I go to book it on the Eurrail and no seats are available. Is there any other way to book an overnight couchette please? Many thanks in advanceSiobhan
