My wife and I are inexperienced rail travelers and will be taking the train from Nice to Zurich on April 24.  Two portions of the trip (Nice Ville to Ventimiglia & Milano Centrale to Lugano) show Open Seating.  Do we just show up that day with our Global Pass to access these portions of the trip?  We have tickets for the other parts of the trip.  

Hi, we are trying to plan to travel to Paris from Scotland as it is a long way we would like to stop in Milton Keynes for a day to break up the journey.That would mess up our outbound journey, is there a way round it as travel by train is very expensive in the UK.

Good morning,I’m a little confused about my Eurostar booking. I had an email yesterday saying:“We’ve had to make some changes to the timings of your Eurostar journey 9148 on Friday 14 August to Lille Europe  due to engineering works.Your train will now be leaving later from London St Pancras Int'l at 18:34 and will arrive in Lille Europe at 21:06.” However, I can see that my original train is still running (the 17.04) and you can even still buy tickets for it. I’d much rather be on this train than the later one. Does anyone know what this is about? I’ve contacted them via their form but it looks like it can take a while for them to respond (up to 28 days). Thank you.

I do have a FIRST CLASS PASS, do i need to book a seat resertivation for PANORAMIC CAR INNSBRUCK? (Its said : seat resertivation optional)

Hello again everyone!Follow up question - Eurail Global Pass I was trying to book seat reservation from Milan to Lucerne. I followed the steps that "themaninseat61" provided using the Rail Europe site but I'm still being charged the Full seat price and I'm not getting an option to purchase. I also tried the Trenitalia and ÖBB sites and the same thing, I'm being charged for the Full ticket seat price. What am I doing wrong? 🙏Please help!Thank you so much!

Hi!We’re a familiy of four - two adults and 2 kids (0 and 2 years old).We’d like to make a reservation for a train from Mannheim, Germany to Paris, France. From what we understand, kids younger then 5 years old travel for free. However, when we try to book via the interrail website, the overall amount is supposed to be 88 Euros for all of us. Can anyone help on how to make the right reservation?Thanks a lotAntje and familiy

Hello, my wife and I are flying into Munich and are catching a train to Slovenia the next day, mid-morning. Should we stay by airport to catch train in airport or is there a better train station away from airport with hotels nearby. Thanks. were in our upper sixties, and I have not used the train system since 1982.

Hello experienced travellers,starting in Brittany, I am planning a travel day to Munich. The easiest way seems through Paris est - Stuttgart.As I am aware of the DB train delays, I checked the punctuality of the train I’d like to takehttps://www.zugfinder.net/en/train-ICE_9573Regardless of the delays, 2 of the last 3 days are tagged “destination not reached”. Is there a way to have more information (“one-time” problem or repeating risk, where the train stopped, what was the advice to end the journey) ?Better, is there a more reliable route Rennes - Munich ?Thanks for any information and advice.

My friend and I are both fairly new travelers and were told by a friend that Eurail would be a good option for us to travel in Europe this summer. We were able to book trains that don’t require seat reservations, but when we tried to book seats on the trains that do require reservations, we weren’t able to. On the eurail website, we got a message saying we need seat reservations to board but there wasn’t actually a way to make seat reservations. When we tried on a separate website affiliated with the trainline, we were unable to book seat reservations using the eurail global pass discount. Has anybody had this issue before or know how we can book our seats?

Can I download/active a single pass to two separate phones?

I am trying to plan a family rail trip across Europe for the summer of 2027 but can’t access the train schedules yet (understandably). When do you think they will be ready?Thanks

Hi there, I’m very worried that when I get to Rome station to catch the train to Venice, I won’t know where to go because I can’t speak Italian. Is there a customer service desk somewhere in the Rome train station? I have both tickets (my pass and a seat reservation). But I’m not sure where to go to ask what platform the train leaves from etc. Can anyone help me. I’m not leaving for a couple of days.

I was wondering about the necessity to reserve seats in advance in the UK in first class.I already learned here that sometimes they aren’t mandatory even though it’s indicated on rail planner, but traveling as a family of 4, I’d rather do it, since it’s free of charge. So my question is: are there trains that sell out like weeks or months before or is it usually ok to reserve a few hours in advance? Would people reserve a few different trains, if they aren’t sure which one they will take?

Is the ferry service of the shipping company GNV offering discounts on the route route Genoa - Barcelona or vice versa - thks

Hello! We are looking to purchase the interrail plus pass (beta) which include most seat reservation costs. That is 29/3 and we want to travel in August however it says the pass will need to be activated within 3 months of purchase. Does this mean we need to book the seats and travel in August within 3 months or does it mean we need to travel within 3 months.  AlsoHas anyone used the plus pass with seat reservation costs covered and is it worth it? Thanks! ☺️

So I have to make some seat reservations as for some of the trains, its mandatory. What if I book a seat and I miss the train on the day, would I have to book another seat for myself or would I be given another seat in another train? The hard part of my travel is that the schedule is not fixed even though the route is fixed, which makes things complicated for me. 

Hi everyone! I’m trying to book couchettes for 4 people on the overnight train Paris-Cerbere but when I try to book with interrail. There’s two option both at 88 euros and they don’t specify which one is the seated option and which one is the couchette option. Could you help me please? Thanks xxx

We are trying to book trains for Europe online from Canada.We are blocked from booking with our Eurail passes until 150 days in advance of our travel.  We’re not traveling until October of 2026.  We’re concerned that when we get to 150 days prior there will be no seats available.  As a test, we’ve tried from today to book out 150 days in the future and get the message that “no reservations available for pass holders” on one of the legs we’re traveling later this year for any of the trains shown.  Are we going to be restricted from booking or is there a certain time (GST) that we should start tryng 150 days in advance of our first booking?

Hi, I recently finished a round trip through southern England and was really looking forward to seeing my statistics. Unfortunately, they still show outstanding kilometres and trains because I’d saved a few alternative connections that I didn’t end up using. Now I can’t delete them, so the journey seems somehow incomplete. Do I just have to live with it, or is there a way to wrap things up properly? I’d also like to take this opportunity to say thank you for all the helpful tips in the forum, which made the trip a smooth and unforgettable experience 🙂
