Hi :)we want to book a sleeping compartment for 3 persons mixed gender (family). If we book a woman’s compartment with 3 beds will it be fine for the train company or is it not allowed? It’s only us in the compartment so it doesn’t matter? 

There is no proposition of reservation except through Barcelona to go from San Sebastain/Donostia to Bordeaux

Hello, I am traveling by train in the Balkans with a 15-day pass valid in all countries. It expires in early December and I still have days left to travel. I am looking to travel from Belgrade (Serbia) to Thessaloniki (Greece) by train. This train exists in real life but not in the Interrail planner. Can I add it manually? And do I need to reserve a seat on board? Or is activating my travel day sufficient?Thank you for your help!  

Hi - I am not quite sure of the night train sleeping berths - I understand about the couchettes v the sleepers - but there are 3 of us travelling and would like to not share with others in the cabin.when I look at the OBB web site to look at booking through there, it only says that you can book a sleeper, but you may have people in it.  But then also says “book the whole compartment” but doesnt say how.When i Iook at booking through Eurail reservations it says 3 x IRT sleep.single(shower.comp) - but I cant  find any explanation of what that exactly is.  When I refer back to the OBB website, I am assuming that is 3 berths in a sleeper - but how do you book a private sleeper? Thank you for your advice.

I have a 7 day/month mobile pass.  Once we booked the 1st day (QR code) we tried to add the next day’s trip but the App won’t let us.  We can input the journey but can’t get the QR code to reserve the trains.  Haven’t tried the 3rd day.  What’s the problem?  Need answer ASAP. Thanks, mgg

Genève-Cornavin to Interlaken Ost on Oct 29 with a 1st Class Eurail Pass. Is a seat reservation required on this route via Bern? Also wondering if there’s any advantage to reserving on SBB InterCity trains

Lyon → Geneva (Oct 28)Lyon Part-Dieu to Genève-Cornavin on Oct 28 with a 1st Class Eurail. Is it TGV Lyria that needs a reservation, or TER regional option with no reservation. Late morning or early afternoon travel. 

My friend and I are planning to carry 28 inch suitcase for Spain trip. We book Eurailpass 2nd class. We will take Iryo and Renfe. Do we allowed to carry it or we have to pay extra luggage?

Dear All Community member,I have plan to visit Interlaken and Zermatt next December (exact date on December 24th, and December 25th) each trip take from Basel. I have seen the schedule on the eurail app, which state that seat reservation optional.I do not have experience to visit both places before during christmas holiday. May I ask your suggestion whether it is necessary to book seat reservation for both trip during christmas holiday? Thank you for your help.

We’re trying out the plus pass for the first time, travelling from Switzerland to the UK.The TGV Lyria and the Eurostar both require 1 credit each, so our return trip will be a total of 4 credits. Because we only have 3, we’ll need to pay for one reservation (like with a regular pass), as stated on the Interrail website info about the plus pass.But I can’t figure out how to pay for the additional reservation- does anyone know? When I try to reserve through Interrail I get a message saying “ Not enough free reservations left!” but no option to pay instead.Do I need to use another provider, or is there a way around this within the Interrail reservations booking system?Thanks for your help…(And I agree with many others on other threads, it would be great if the number of credits included in the plus pass is increased! Otherwise I think we will not use it again.)

I would like to take the INC 1962 train between Catania and Florence on January 10, 2026, but I don't find it available. That train appears in the schedule up to December 12, 2026, but not after that. Does anyone know if that train will appear later or if for some reason it won't run in January 2026? There was a recent schedule update, but this train still doesn't appear after December 12th.

I’m using my purchased Eurail pass to travel from Paris to Basel SBB. The route starts at Paris Nord and transfers at Paris Est via public transportation. Can I just start at Paris EST to avoid the public transportation transfer?

Last year I won a 7 day 2nd class interrail pass. Can I upgrade this to a 1st class pass? If so, how does this work? This question is not about reservations, but about the pass.

Train will be replaced by a bus service (a direct bus and a bus with several stops). We would like to take the direct bus to Mönchengladbach at 9.55 am. Does anybody know if this bus service is included in the Interrail Pass?

How far in advance can I book seats on TGV from Nice to Paris 

I work for a UK rail company and we get FIP vouchers for free travel on some European service.I need to reserve 2 seats on a service but I am unable to just reserve the seats without buying a ticket.Any advise would be great.travelling from Paris Gare de Lyon to Zurich.thanks

I’m trying to book Lyon Par Dieu to Torino Porta Susa on 3 September (having already paid/booked reservations from the UK to Lyon via Lille Europe since the whole journey from the UK to Turin was showing as bookable on the Interrail app) but there sees to be no way to reserve on the 17.20 Freccia Rossa (direction Milano)! I’ve found posts on here from 3 years ago saying Frecciaitalia trains to/from Paris are not part of the Interrail network and that many on here were pressuring trenitalia to change this. Is it possible now? Did you succeed?Since I’ve already booked the other reservations (Eurostart and snc from Lille to Lyon) , I now risk losing money if I can’t book the last leg of my journey (Lyon-Turin) 😯

Hello,My family have an Interrail Global Pass valid 7 days for 1 month. We live in FranceWe have activated all of passes on my mobile travel start date 21:10/2025We start travelling tomorrow 21 October 2025 - 9:41 TER Nice St Augustin - Ventimiglia (no reservation required) 10:59 Ventimiglia - Milano Centrale (reservation required) 19:13 Milano P. garibaldi - Vienne (nightjet reservation required)Return 30/10/2025 19:18 Vienne - Milano P Garibaldi (nightjet reservation required)We have bought tickets through the Rail Planner for the trains where a reservation is required but BEFORE we created the trip on the mobile pass. We have tickets that we will print. I have now created a Trip and added these journeys. What do we do now? There’s a little sliding button showing next to each journey. Do we need to activate that to get the QR code for travel? Need a little bit of help getting started… Thanks 

Is it possible to still activate your mobile pass on the date of today?

I have already purchased my Eurail Global Pass, and it is linked to my Trip in the Rail Planner app. Also I made seat reservations for my train journeys using the ÖBB (Austrian Railways) app as I will be travelling during a busy time.  Now that I’m trying to add those trips to Rail Planner app, I noticed that these specific journeys do not appear in the search.I want to ensure that these reserved trips are still valid under my Eurail Pass, and that I won’t encounter any issues during ticket inspection.Could you please clarify: Is it acceptable to manually add journeys to the Rail Planner app if they don’t appear in the search results — as long as the travel matches the reservation and is covered by the pass? Will manually adding these trips ensure I’m compliant with the pass usage rules and protected from any penalties while traveling? Are there any steps I should take to ensure my trips are valid on the days I travel (e.g., toggling them into the pass for the travel day)? For refe
