Hello, Me and my two friends (18 & 19) are going on our first interrail trip next year, and i am a planner. so i’ve made a schedule and a map and now im making a budget. We are planning on either a two month or three month trip to 27 countries. My questions are:What has your day by day food and hostel budgets been like max-min or an estimate (in general or per country)Do you have travel recommendations such as hostels, sight seeing and food experiences. Name everything you’ve got as we will probably visit that country.Do you have some tips and warnings for first time interrailers what to do and what not to do-Sophia

I bought a seat reservation for the night train from Roma to Torino tonight. I saw there are still couchette beds available for reservation, and would love to make an upgrade. I just don’t know how to do it. Can I go to the station and ask for an upgrade to a couchette bed? Would it be possible to upgrade inside the train?There’s a strike affecting public transit in Rome today, so I doubt I’ll make it to the main station.Has anyone had any experience with this?Thanks in advance.

Hello,I have a question about the validity for Eurail pass between  VALLORCINE (France) and MARTIGNY, GARE (Switzerland). The validity seemed OK. for yesterday, but not OK. for today.  Is this kind of situation occurred because of the weather condition? Now I am planning a long traveling in Europe for about 2 months. I am worry about that my planning can’t be completed smoothly because of the uncertainty and it will affect the  reservation for air ticket and aural pass. 

Me asking a question instead of answering one!I will be using an Interrail Switzerland Pass, and I want to go from Zurich - Milan on EC313.Is Chiasso the final station of validity of the pass, so I’d buy Chiasso - Milan?Similarly, if I take EC53 from Bern - Milan instead, I’d have to buy a ticket Brig - Milan?

I was gifted a Eurail Global Pass, 1st class, for the duration of my trip to Europe. On my itinerary I have a lot of countries, including Italy but not Greece. I’ll be traveling in late fall.I have some room in my itinerary. I wasn’t planning on traveling to Greece, but I like the idea of a free “cruise”-like experience. But, since I have this pass, I’m wondering if I should do this with the ferries?My question is, what are the ferries like? If I have the opportunity to use them for free, is it worth making room in my itinerary for it?

My pass is until Oct 29, and I just booked my last train on Oct 29 and it’s Night Jet so it will arrive onOct 30. Should I book again?

I have tried entering my rail pass number numerous times without success and can’t get past that step to book / reserve a seat on a train from Florence to Torino. Any advice? I’ve tried multiples of combinations or other numbers that they might accept…super frustrating! 

I’m planning to go from France to Switzerland, is it possible to sit faster route but not paying for the reservation fee.

HiI'm planning a trip to Spain and Portugal next week. I tried to make the reservation for a train Montpellier (France) - Madrid (Spain) with the company Renfe but I saw that it's not possible on the interrail website and that I should go to a train station. And that's what I did. But there, they explained me that I can't book that train from France, since It's a spanish company and that I can only do it in a spanish train station. But how am I suppose to book the train in a spanish station if it's leaving from France ? Can anyone explain me how I should proceed ? Is it possible to make this reservation ?Thank you very much 

I'm planning to go from London to paris with Eurostar provider, may I know what is the cheapest way to buy a ticket? Or is there any way to do free of charge.

I just bought 15 days continuous pass. But I just to start travelling at 16th November, it means that my interail pass will only start counting the 15 days from the day that I register in Rail Planner?

I read on interrail.eu, ‘More often than not, you need to make advance reservations for trains in Spain’. Is this true? Is it usually not possible to travel in Spain without seat reservations? Is the Interrail app information reliable where this is concerned? How can I find Spanish trains where it is not necessary to have a seat reservation?

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.

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.

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 :)
