Hi, I am trying to get my head around reservations on night trains. Want to travel from Berlin to Vienna. If I book the below ticket via the OBB nightjet website, the wording says it's for a flex ticket + reservation, so do I still need to make a separate reservation using my eurail app and pay the reservation fee of 62euros? 

Hi There  Looking at a trip down to Florence (and back) from London taking in a few cities along the way mainly using Hotels and Airbnb. Route across France to Italy and back up though Switzerland and Belgium. Probably buying a month pass for each of us with 6-8 stops. Understand the principles of the card I think but confused by the actual booking of the trains. Every route I've looked at so far has said extra payment has to be made and just wondering what I'm buying the pass for 😕 Was I just unlucky or is that a fairly typical experience. Ideally I'd like to have all the trains booked up before we set off. Is that possible?  If anyone has done this sort of thing before and can give advice I'd be very grateful.  Thanks  Steve 

Hi, wondering if anyone can help, I am trying to book a seat reservation from Budapest to Ljubljana on the 18th of April at 9am.  After following the seat reservation guide posted on here I am still unable to book a seat reservation alone without a ticket being added on. The international pass global price is an option but it appears to only be for domestic trains? Do I have to €17 for the train and the seat reservation?Thanks

Hello! I have a Eurail second class global pass. I originally got a standard class seat reservation from Paris to London in April, but we had to change the date we will be leaving Paris. I went onto the Eurostar app and was able to change the date but since there was no more standard class tickets for the time I wanted, I was able to upgrade my seat to standard premier. My question is, will that be okay since I have a second class Eurail pass? I was able to successfully select the seat and I have the Euro star tickets but I want to make sure everything will be okay. Thank you! 

Jus trying to figure out if it’s possible to use a global pass directly from Heathrow to nord station in Paris. Any help is appreciated.

Hello, I am a student right now and I have no time to use my Interrail Global pass. Is it possible to delay my Global Pass eventhough it is has to be activated until the 13 rd of April?

Im visiting family in the UK from America, but I am a UK citizen (duo passport) and I plan to travel to and from London to Amsterdam each weekend for a month. That's 6-8 trips. Do I need a one country or Global pass? Im guessing I'm allowed to take the LNER for free to get to King's Cross, then get on the Eurostar to Amsterdam. Then I can use the trams and metro for free in Amsterdam right?  Or am I misunderstanding how it works. When I need to take the Eurostar back to UK, is that allowed on a one country pass? Because when I get back to London, I will need to take a LNER train out of London to my city, will that be an additional cost? This all confuses me a bit, on what pass to purchase and if this plan is feasible.  Thanks for your help.Edit: Forgot to add, because of brexit, does UK passport still apply to interrail? And would getting Eurorail pass be even better for this plan? I'm guessing global is best because what if I want to go to another country one time. But that's for anot

I’m trying to travel through eastern Europe and have had trouble getting into and around Greece with interrail. There are no trains on the schedule from or to anywhere in Greece. Is this an error or is Greece no longer part of the interrail pass? Latvia also has the same problem which caused me to change my trip as I couldn’t get from Lithuania to Estonia.

I thought I’d cracked reservations, but suddenly can’t get anywhere, so hoping someone can help…trying to reserve Wien to Venice mid-June.  The train we want seems not to be reservable for 3 people, though other departures are. Is this possible?  from Venice to Milan a few days later, Tren Italia booking system doesn’t seem to recognise our (mobile) pass numbers.  The ‘I’ help shows where to find the number on a paper pass, so wondering if that’s the issue?any guidance appreciated!

Our Eurostar train has been cancelled for Tuesday 28th March.  We can't reschedule for that day online as their website is down and as it's the weekend, the Customer Helpline is closed. We have reservations. Can we deactivate this journey in our planner and rebook another train on that day via rail planner without loosing our reservation money (appreciate that we may have to have other seats).  We are desperate as we already have accomodation booked in Paris (non-refundable)

Are there better routes?Thanks

Hi,During Easter this year (2023) it is difficult to make reservations as there are railroad constructions. Last date for activation for my pass is the tenth of April, but it seems there are no trains that day to leave for Copenhagen. Can I activate the pass on the 10th, and then leave Sweden for Copenhagen on the 11th? On the 11th there are trains and it is possible to make reservations.Kind regards, Jonas

Hello,I’m wanting to reserve a seat on the overnight train on 10th April 2023 from Zurich to either Prague or Budapest.  on the Eurail website it says there are no reservations available to Prague on either of the direct overnight trains. I can reserve the overnight train to Budapest however it won’t allow me to purchase as it’s a paper/post ticket and the website says it won’t arrive in time.  I can see on the OBB website that there are tickets available to Budapest, however no reservations available. It also seems the Czech train website is down at the moment. Is there another way I can make a reservation? Stressed about missing out on a seat!!  thank you!

I tried for the first time to make a seat reservation on a Norway train from Fauske to Trondheim through Eurail website and it says the reservation will be sent by post. Is it always the case for all reservations through Eurail? I understand I can make a direct reservation by calling Entur’s customer service, not online on their website, which can be expensive. The other option is to go to a staffed train station in Norway. I am concerned because I will start my trip to Europe next week. Any advise?
