Solved

Hello, I will be travelling to Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg in March for about 9 days. I am planning to buy Benelux rail pass. To travel from Amsterdam Airport to Brussels City center, what are the options? Do I need to make advance seat reservations?

Good morning, l am having a little problem with the confirmation email. I have received it but the rest of my group has not, so I can not activate the pass. Could you please give me any information on what I have to do?

Extremely bad customer service. No telephone lines, no chatting, just an email line that is slow and the people running it show no understanding. Avoid this company at all costs. It really is going to cost me a lot of money for making the mistake to choose them.

I would like to take an early train in the morning, but I will arrive late the day before. I cannot make a reservation online and have to go to the counter, so I would like to know what hours they are open.

I’m trying to book tickets for travel to the euros but each time I try to check out this happens… any ideas please? I’ve tried on a different browser too but it still does the same thing! I’ve successfully managed to book other dates without this happening. 

Hallo zusammen, Ich möchte Reservierungen durchführen auf der Interrail Website (Planner App verweist darauf), aber ich habe keine Möglichkeit einen Fensterplatz oder ähnliches auszuwählen?Ist das normal? Danke Gruß Peter 

Hi, I am trying to get one of these for the Euros. Despite the sale date being listed as starting today, I am having no luck with any sites for purchasing one. Once selecting buy this pass https://euro2024.interrail.eu/en/go it just seems to reload the same page. Any ideas for this? Or is it just a waiting game? Thanks Dylan

I’m trying to reserve a seat on the following and the message I’m getting is “The train is already fully booked or has been cancelled due to engineering work.” Given I’ve come across messages before saying trains are full, when it really means I’m booking too far in advance, and other times when trains I’ve tried to book are actually full, I don’t know how to interpret this message. Is there any way of knowing?  

Hi Guys,Just joined this community and trying to get few answers. We are planning a 15 days trip to Europe in April starting from Amsterdam and ending in Rome. We are planning to cover Prague, Munich, Switzerland. Do you recommend that i should get Euro rail pass for inter country travel and local travel inside Switzerland and Italy ? Also Euro rail pass works on RE trains ? Thanks for the help.

Hi, I am look for some advice or info for a trip from Zurich to Istanbul.Will be staying in Istanbul (and hopefully doing some recommended trips) and then going back to Switzerland. Seems like there is not many itineraries or route suggestions- would love some options of going through Romania and Bulgaria and then maybe back a different way through some more Balkan countries. Thank you!

Hi,Sorry if its a daft question. Would below itinerary count as 1 day of travelGrindlewald-Lauterbrunnen-Wengen-GrindlewaldGrindlewald-Interlaken-GrindlewaldSo above two train journeys if done.in one day count as 1 Day of travel? I purchased a 7 day pass instead of 5 days and thinking of using it for local travel while in Switzerland.  Thanks 

I am going with family to London, Paris, Spain and Italy in March for 10 days. I bought a 4 day Eurail global pass 1st Class. We will be taking the London Paris train, Paris to Barcelona and Venice to Florence trains. Do I now need to make seat reservations on those and pay extra money even though I have already bought the 1st class pass?

Hi!We are planning to interrailing through Europe this summer for a month and could use some help with our route. It is our first time. We will start from Stockholm and then make our way to Paris, Barcelona, the French Riviera (Nice, with a day trip to Monaco, and then possibly to either Marseille, Saint Tropez, Cannes), then Monterosso, Milan, a day trip to Venice, maybe a day trip to Rome and Pisa, then to (Kandersteg or Lauterbrunnen or Interlaken), maybe Zurich, maybe Bled, and finally Berlin and Copenhagen. We are open for changes, removing some places, replacing others, and rearranging the order. We haven't fully decided the destinations yet, so we welcome all the recommendations we can get. Can you help us find the most convenient route and if we should remove any destination?

I am trying to book a trip from with sleeper car (ex: Prague to Berlin) and it shows regular seats on the nightjet, but not the couchette prices. Even though this train SHOULD have them. Why?Any way around this?  I’ve found other sleeper cars available for other routes (ex: munich > vienna) but not this one.I’ve tried with and without specifying my eurrail pass. On both the nightjet.com site and oebb booking.

Gostaria de saber se o Eurail Pass cobre o trajeto entre Spiez e Zermatt obrigada 

Hello community! I’m from Chile and this is going to be my first time in Europe, just a few days, but I was wondering if it’s possible to go by this train system from Milan to Switzerland passing through  the wonderful  Swiss Alps. I’m very interested in seeing the beautiful villages, Landwasser Viaduct among other incredible places. I’m traveling last week of March, maybe I have a litlle time to go to Paris or even London, but I also don’t know if going by train is the best alternative.I hope someone could help me, I’m a bit confused. ¡Saludos desde Santiago! 

Bonjour , j’ai des chèques vacances connect . Comment puis je payer mon pass avec ? merci 

Hi there, I'm planning for a trip from Frankfurt > Munich > Paris > Lucern > Interlaken > Zermatt > Milan. Will be taking the local trains around in Switzerland for travelling to the tourist spots like Pilatus, Titlis, Grindelwald, Rhein falls etc etc. Kinda confused with do I need to use a Pass Day when travelling in around Switzerland? If yes, do I need a reservation for the trains? And when they say that the local trains are covered by Eurail Global Pass, does it mean that I can board a local train without even when I'm not planning to use it as a Pass Day? Would also like to take the scenic train from Zermatt to Milan if that's possible. Thank you so much in advance! 

Hi,  I am trying to book seats on ICE train from Strasbourg to Paris. I believe the trains starts in Frankfurt. When i try to book seats from Strasbourg to Paris it say "seat booking is impossible at this time". The dates are less than 90 days away. When i try and book it fro  Frankfurt to Paris, its letting me book it. Should i book that and just board from Strasbourg? Many thanks.

Hi all,Before buying a card, I’d like to be sure that it will be interesting for me. I understand that I have to pay for reservation and cabin in night train, so is it really interesting? I don’t know how can I calculate what I have to add ?I would like to travel from Paris to Turku (Finland). It seems the quicker way is to go to Koeln and Hamburg in a day and take the night train to Stockholm (with a cabin booking). Then, I’ll take ferry by night from Stockholm to Turku. Is it included ?I never used interrail and I don’t understand everything.Thanks in advance for your reply.Nb : I have 50 years old and can’t take train. I want to go to Turku as quick as possible and with a night in a cabin on night train.  

I am a resident of the Netherlands. I am planning to get an Interrail pass for 2 months this spring. But that pass comes with just 2 outbound/inbound journeys. However, I want to make multiple trips.The question is: does a journey starting on a border station (the last station before the border) count as an inbound/outbound journey? For example: does taking the train from Breda to Brussels or from Arnhem to Frankfurt count as an outbound journey? According to this example posted on the Interrail website, a journey from Brussels to London St.Pancras does not count as inbound, but the journey from London St.Pancras to Brighton does count. So consistently, a journey from Frankfurt to Arnhem (the first stop in the Netherlands of the ICE) should not count as inbound right?
