Hey, I need to get from Sofia, Bulgaria to Thessaloniki, Greece in May 2023.Any suggestions which bus company I have to choose because there are no trains, or any websites I can go to? Plus do I have to reservate beforehand and how much is a ride?

I was born in 1995 - which makes me 28 in 2023. Do I still qualify for a youth pass as long as I purchase and use it before my birthday at the end of the year? I.e. if my birthday is on the 11th of December 2023, could I still purchase and use the youth pass for travels starting and ending before the 11th of December? TLDR : Does Eurail consider the year you were born in or the specific date to determine your age?

We're planning an Interrail and we want to visit the cities shown on the map, but we don't know if a 10 travel days in 2 months pass will be ok, or if we need to skip one city. Interrailers, is this pass OK? The thing is, the interrail website recommends the Global Pass (10 travel days within 2 months), but the Rail Planner App seems to tell we need more travel days, as it displays that (+1 day) sign

Hallo miteinander!Ich würde mir gerne ein Interrail-Ticket kaufen, habe aber Probleme bei der Bestellung. Wenn ich im Warenkorb auf “Zu Angaben zum Reisenden” klicke, passiert nichts. Daher kann ich die Bestellung auch nicht abschließen.Ich hoffe, ihr könnt mir weiterhelfen.Viele GrüßeMaria

Hey, I am planning to travel to Croatia soon bit I can’t find any connections to or from Croatia in the interrail app. I was able to plan a trip through Croatia in Dezember in the app but now when I try to search the trip again the app says there are no trains for that route. Does anyone know why there are no connections for Croatia in the interrail app ?

Hi there,I ask this question in regards to the cancellation and refund policy. I have read that refunds are different for eurail passes when they are promotional, however, I would like to know if a SALE (ie the winter sale) degrades the standard pass to a promotional pass, and then promotional pass refund rules would apply.

Hi all!I am planning my first ever interrail adventure and i’m torn between the 7days within 1 month or 22days pass. I will be travelling for 3 weeks and am planning to stop in around 6 cities (Lyon, Paris, London, Brussels, Amsterdam and Vienna). Now i am wondering if the global pass is also valid for public transport (busses, metro, tram etc.) within the cities.  If so, i’d prefer the 22days pass. Do you guys have any tips and recommendations? Thanks so much! :)

If I buy a 4 day pass can I use all 4 days in uk 

When I check out for a global pass, the only option it gives me is mobile -- no way to get a paper pass. How do I get a paper pass? I’m in the USA. 

Hi all, simply question (?) that I can’t find the answer to - on a ‘5 day pass in a month’ is it a calendar month or 30 days from the first train. That is, could my first train be on 25 April with the last train on 18 May or would they all have to be in the same calendar month?Thanks,Davide

Hi, I am planning a family trip this summer and looking for some early advice. We are trying to do a little initially planning on what is possible but we keep getting stuck with how to get to and from Istanbul. All the information says there is a overnight train between Sofia and Istanbul but it’s does show up in any planners for summer 2023. Could it be I am looking to plan to early or is this route no longer available? Thanks in advance from a noobie

Hi We are traveling from UK probably in April and wondering about the best route to see the Alps. Any tips or ideas/experiences very welcome!

Have booked Eurostar from London to Paris, but wanting to travel that same morning from Leicester to London. Don't appear to be able to add that journey to my Plan. Is the journey covered?

Hi everyone,Starting in April I will be traveling to the following countries: The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. I plan to take the train as much as possible, so it seems like the 3 month Global pass would be the best option for me, but I am not clear about whether or not the pass allows me to travel within a country? For example if I wanted to take a train from Amsterdam to Rotterdam or from Berlin to Munich, can I use the Global Pass to get these tickets for free? Or if I wanted to take the local transit within Berlin (S-Bahn) for example? I will be spending 5 weeks of the trip just in Berlin taking an intensive language course so this is very important for me to understand. Would appreciate clarification on this. Thank you.

Hello I’m planning to travel from Istanbul to Western Europe in early Feb.I understand the only way is to book tickets while in Istanbul.Are there multiple options to travel from Halkali? I see some suggestions to travel to Dimitrovgrad, Plovdiv or Sofia (they seem to be on same line and I see two Dimitrovgrad on interrail map - one west and one east of Sofia).is same from Sofia onwards i.e I have to book while in Bulgaria? Any up to date information would be helpful Regards 

Hi everyone, I am taking a train tomorrow from Berlin to Prague. I was just wondering if I need to get to the train station early for an international train? And if so, by how much?  Thank you in advance! 

Hello  I have a question regarding the use of the in and outbound days. My plan is to go from near Munich to Hamburg and then the next day from Hamburg to  Kopenhagen (as the travel time from my hometown which is south of Munich to Kopenhagen would be way too long for one day) Is it possible to use in this case both days (in- and outbound) for these two days?  thank you for your replies! 

I’m trying to book Interrail reservations for trains in France on 1st April, it’s a TGV within France, from Paris to Moutiers. It just says “booking momentarily unavailable” on every single train. Does this mean they’re fully booked or not available to book yet? It’s within three months now so I thought it should work! 

Can anyone please assist with finding a 'detour' or 'pass through somewhere else' route from Rottedam to Paris for sometime today (2nd Jan 2023)? ie: through Brussels or somewhere in France heading to Paris

Hello  I’m about to start using my 3 month continuous interrail pass. My home country is UK.I understand I can only use one inbound and outbound eurostar. Does the outbound eurostar have to be at the beginning (i.e the first train journey) and the inbound the last one ?What happens if I use an inbound eurostar after 3 months - does it mean I cannot use for last 1 month? regards 

Dear all, Hoping someone can guide me here pretty please.I looked up in in the app planer and I can make it from Madrid to Milan on the same day in just over 15 hours.In Madrid I was able to book a HSpeed train to Barcelona at 7am. Renfe won't sell me any of the other trains after Barcelona. I found in the app that I need to call a number to book Barcelona- Valence. I haven't done it yet but I am hoping this is a straight forward step. The train shows in the Eurail website as well as in the app.The next train, Valence-Chambery Challes requires no reservations and also shows in both app and website.Now, the HSpeed and last train and as shown on the app, the Chambery-Milano P.Garibaldi requires reservations. The app says I can book on the Eurail website. I am looking on the website and this train is not showing. This is for January 10th departing 17:44 arriving in Milano at 21:49 (4 hours and much better than a regular train that takes more than twice as long).Can someone help me? Does t
