Solved

Hi!I have bought a 4-day in a month global pass. I had activated it for today thinking I could take the connection Bonn-Stuttgart-Ulm-Pordenone, Ulm-Pordenone serviced by a NJ. I would depart in the evening and get there in the morning. So I activated the pass and then tried to reserve a seat but I couldn’t. Now any other connection is such that I need to use two travel days and I do not intend to do it because it undermines the whole rationale for why I bought the pass in the first place. I would like to get the pass deactivated and my travel day back or at the very least my travel day back. I tried to contact support via both the bot and the app, but I don’t even get a confirmation mail. What am I supposed to do?

Going to UK for two weeks in June and then visiting other countries like France, Ireland, Belgium and Spain. I wanna know if in UK is it possible to travel for example: London - Cambridge - London or London - Liverpool - London using the Eurail. Like one day trip in the same country. It’s possible to do that with the Eurail Global Pass? I know that there is one BritRail Pass as well, but the trip will continue to other countries, so I don’t know what if it’s worth it. 

I have tried to plan my trips, but RailPlanner tells always: Sorry, we don´t have train times for these dates yet -we´re waiting for a timetable update from the railways.Please change your search and try again. I have used last spring Railpalnner – no problems...

Hello! I am trying to get from Austria to Venice in March. I found a direct route that states that I need to purchase a seat reservation from Villach Hbf to Venezia Santa Lucia but when I went to do so on my computer only a paper ticket is available. Since I would much prefer a mobile ticket I followed advice I saw on a separate forum and went to the Czech Rail website to see if I could purchase a seat reservation there. The confusing thing though is that when I found the exact same route for my journey it said, “no restrictions on the route.” I’m wholly unsure which information I should trust, could I even still use my eurail pass for this route if I don’t purchase a reservation since it’s from the eurail site itself that’s stating I need said reservation? I don’t know if opting for a paper ticket would be a safer option as I’m worried about it not arriving at my hostel in time.Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to read this. 💓

Hello, I made a seat reservation for my friends and I together.  However, we only received one E ticket and not two.  What do we do now?

The Caledonian Sleeper site is contradicting my understanding of night trains and Eurail passes. They write:“Britrail / Inter-Rail / Eurail / FIP Coupons will need to be valid on the date you arrive in your destination but not necessarily on the date you join the train for departures before midnight.”Now, I understand why that might be the case for the trains that depart Edinburgh or Glasgow just before midnight: it’s after midnight CET, and maybe the app logs it in CET time.But I want to use my pass one morning to go from Glasgow to Fort William, explore, then get on the 19:50 departure to London, which arrives around 7am.Can anybody advise?

Hello all, two of us have a two-month 1st class interrail pass. I have worked out our itinerary and booked reservations for things like sleepers, panoramic cars, TGV etc. These are trains for which I haven’t booked seat reservations. I have a condition which means I can’t stand for long periods of time. Equally, we don’t want to spend money on reservations unnecessarily. Could I please have some advice as to which of these trains we should make reservations for? Thank you so much! Date Day of week Route Time 13/03/2023 Monday Weimar - Wurzburg 17:09 15/03/2023 Wednesday Wurzburg - Munich 08:04 18/03/2023 Saturday Zurich - Karlsruhe 09:59 29/04/2023 Saturday Strasbourg - Basel 16:51 01/05/2023 Monday St Moritz - Zurich 17:02 02/05/2023 Tuesday Budapest - Vienna 17:40

Hey, I’m from the UK and me and my friend are hoping to go on a small interrail trip this summer. But I’m struggling on which pass to get, I’m travelling from my home in the UK to obviously start in London (not staying just to get the euro star) and we plan to go to amsterdam, krakow, Budapest and vienna then obviously back home. I understand krakow and Budapest are quite far so may need to add a stop in Berlin or something there. This is provisional but with the pass I am confused to wether me travelling to and from london counts as a travel day. And what pass would be best. We didn’t know whether the 4 or 5 day pass, we still aren’t sure if we will add Berlin but either way, we just need some guidance on what pass to get and more info about getting to and from london with the pass as we also have to make a reservation on that train to amsterdam.

Hey,I want to start my trip tomorrow from Helsinki to Turku (Finland) but the Search function in the Rail Planner App does not work. I am not able to find any Train Station or Train Connection.Some weeks before it worked and I added some Trains to my trip successfully. The trips which required a reservation are still valid but for the other train connections it says that I don’t have any more days of travel. But I have a 2 months global pass starting tomorrow. I also reinstalled the app already and internet isn’t the issue. Can it be a hardware problem or a bug in the app?As I was planning to start tomorrow I’m thankful for every tip!  

Friends, I have a flexible 4 day global pass from Eurail which is valid for a month. I’m planning to use this pass days for my major travel between country borders. During my trip, I’m visiting Bernese Oberland region, where I’m planning to use discounted tickets (Mt Pilatus & Schilthorn), which is 25% on eurail. If I use this discount, will the day be counted as travel day ?Also planning to go either of Lake Thun / Lake Brienz boating, which is free with Eurail. Will this be counted as a day. This is not a discount I believe.Can I use pass for multiple travels on a day which are completely not part of a single (connected) journey (wandering around). Is it possible to do so with eurail pass counting as 1 day ?Thank you in Advance.Bijoy

Hi there, I’m trying to but a 4-berth private couchette or 2 double private sleeper cabins for my family (2 adults, 2 kids) on the 24th July (Brussels to Vienna) but no couchettes are showing up for this date, and no double cabins now either - would they be sold out already? I thought the tickets had only just been released?I’m finding the OBB booking pages a little difficult and what’s on offer keeps changing, ie options keep disappearing within a matter of minutes like they’re all selling out super quick!! Any help or advice much appreciated.Thanks

When I search for trains Lugano to MXP it says pass not valid.Trenitalia is listed and has trains for this route on their website take 1.5 hours with one change.  Eurail route is 2 hours 44 minutes.Trainline show direct trains.What am I missing? Thanks

Hallo,Ich habe eine Frage zur Rückreise aus Stockholm nach Deutschland, konkret Freiburg:(einen Pass habe ich noch nicht gekauft, bin erst in der Planung)ist es möglich, mit dem Nachtzug von Stockholm nach Hamburg, der die Grenze nach Deutschland nach Mitternacht überfährt (aber so weit ich das herausbekommen habe nicht an der Grenze hält), in mein Wohnland Deutschland zurückzureisen UND dann an dem nächsten Morgen von HH weiter nach Freiburg zu kommen?Wieviele Reisetage braucht das und geht das überhaupt wenn ich um 0.00. Uhr am (letzten) (Heimreise)-Tag der Reise (der zudem der letzte Tag der Gültigkeitsdauer des Passes ist) bereits auf deutschem Boden bin?Wie ist das mit dem Inbound-Tag zu verstehen? Kann ich den dafür nutzen, um vollends heimzureisen, wenn mein Nachtzug in HH um halb7 morgens ankommt und ich dann noch einen weiteren Zug brauche?So ganz schlau werde ich mit den Internetseiten nicht, ich hoffe auf Hilfe aus der Community…?Viele Grüße aus Freiburg

Hi,We’ve got reservations on 20th February on Eurostar (London - Paris) and TGV (Paris - Hendaye). Seeing the latest update to the news on this website it appears 20th will be the last day of French industrial action. Naturally I’m worried that our trains might be cancelled, since if they are our whole itinerary is totally stuffed as we have onward bookings to Lisbon (mercifully just after the Portugal strike action is due to end). Looking at the Eurostar and SNCF sites, I haven’t been able to work out whether there’s any way of knowing in advance whether our services will be affected: couldn’t see anything on the SNCF site, while Eurostar is only showing information for the next day. Can anyone shed any light?Thanks

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows the exact time when the seat reservation for Glacier Express opens 93 days in advance. I thought it would be open by midnight 93 days before the departure date, but it already passed midnight and I kept refreshing the booking page, it still says “Travel date too far in the future. You can only book 93 days in advance.” The latest date available is May 18 so far, however, I need to book for May 19. The first class seats of the earlier train seem to be very popular and the good seats are sold out pretty fast as soon as the booking opens. I can't really sit in front of the laptop and keep refreshing the booking page for hours until it opens. So any chance, anyone here knows the exact open time? Thank you so much :)

The passes in my app have been blocked. I don’t know why and how to unblock them.Thank you. 

Hello, I would like to ask which trains are covered by the InterRail CountryPass in Sardinia. Thank you in advance for the answer! 

Hello everyone, I wanted to book seat reservation for Geneva (Cornavin) to Zermatt. I tried on ÖBB with the one way ticket option, it shows as the following:Does that mean I don't need to book seat reservation for these trains?Would it likely be no seat available if I don't book reservation?We have our scenic trains and accommodations in Zermatt and St. Morris all booked in and paid, really don't want to not be able to get there from Geneva the day before due to the lack of seat availability.Thanks a lot in advance :) 

I am attempting to use my global pass and book from Munich, Germany to Florence, Italy.  What would be my best resource for booking?  I cannot figure the app out and am willing to pay a service fee 

So, my last question revolved around the opaque use of the term 'trip’ in Rail Planner app.  Having started to try to add trips, I have found it impossible to find any; every option results in ‘timetable not available; add manually’. This for a trip starting end of March. Does the trip planner have any functionality or do I ignore & plan via orher means ( I need to plan to make reservations in France/Spain.

I will be getting the TFW train from Holyhead to Cardiff in a couple of weeks on a 1st class Interrail.  This particular train is the only TFW one that has an actual dining car according to their website - “Our first-class dining service and food bar service is currently only available on our Premier Service between Cardiff and Holyhead.”I understand that GWR are a good bet for a dining car on trains to London.  It looks like their availability is limited this month - https://www.gwr.com/travelling-with-us/pullman-dining, but hopefully will be available when I plan on traveling.I think I heard somewhere that some UK carriers had dropped theirs in recent years, but I don’t know which ones still have them other than TFW and GWR.  Does anyone know what routes north out of London have dining cars, or even which operators still have them in general?Thanks,David[edit] I see the title and the post don’t match, but I can’t change the title unfortunately.

8 days in Italy visiting Venice & major cities btwn there & Naples-Looks like 8 day pass would be perfect. 1.  Does one simply show pass upon request aboard train or scan somewhere prior to each boarding? 2. Is reservation fee for each leg of trip or round trip?  Example: Bologna to Pisa back to Bologna3. Any suggestions for questions I wouldn't know to ask about using Eurail pass?  4. Best/easiest/cheapest site to book trips? 

I’ve read in multiple places that Global pass holders can travel between Italy and Greece for free on Superfast ferries (plus the fuel charge). However, whenever I’ve tried to book a ticket, I’m only able to get the 30% discount when I click on the Eurail discount. Is there any way to purchase a ticket where I get the full discount/I’m only paying for the fuel charge?
