Hallo iedereen,ik vroeg me af dat iemand weet hoe we aan de lagere kunnen bereiken of hoe ik mijn verblijf moet organiseren als ik wil genieten van de ontdekking kortingen?

 I’m trying to book Munich to Verona on August 16, 2025. I would prefer a direct train, but there are none available on the EURAIL website for that date. When I look at August 9, exactly one week earlier, there are several direct trains for this route. I have the same issue with other segments of my trip, Munich-Verona-Florence-Rome; no high speed or direct trains available to book on the dates I want.. Yet if I look at other websites such as Trenitalia or Italo, I can see that those direct trains are supposed to be running.I keep coming back to check every few days in case the direct trains on the 16th and later suddenly become available to book with my Pass, but no luck yet.Is it a question of waiting for a certain date to see the direct routes become available to EURAIL Pass holders, or should I assume it wont happen and make other arrangements?

Hello everybody!Looking for help in planning a train trip from London to Belturbet in Ireland and am testing the limits of the Eurail app ;-)Can someone please confirm: 1) Holyhead route is the best option from London to Deblin?2) Pedestrian/Train passengers can board the ferry from Holyhead to Dublin?3) The best way to get to Belturbet for which there is a bus route Expressway Bus 30 from Dublin?4) Is there another way to get to Belturbet where a train connection from Dublin can get me closer to Belturbet and the bus journey can be eliminated or minimized?I am hoping someone well versed wirh the area can guide me in planning a better utilization of our Eurail Global passes with a family of four!  Thanks in advance for taking the time to respond...

On some of our planned shorter trips the interrail app neither says “seat reservations optional” nor “seat reservations required”. Does that mean that it is not possible to make seat reservations for these trips? 

Hello dear community, I am planning my travel to Norway. On the way back i'll be in Sweden with 3 short time connections of 15, 49 and 22 minutes. The first one in Kristinehamn station coming from Oslo and  going to Katrineholm C . Then in Katrinholm C to go to Linkoping C. And then in Linkoping C , nightrain  to go to Hamburg. Apparently these 3 stations are small ones  I was wondering if the trains would wait for people in transfer ?!

We've booked all the trains on our itinerary, except for one that's causing us problems: a train from Brussels to Paris that will leave around 16:00 on July 14. We've booked in advance, but we can't seem to make a reservation, even though the train does exist... yet it's as if it doesn't exist on b-europe.com. Do you have any advice?

Some seat reservations can’t be made in the interrail app. They refer me to int.bahn.de but there it’s not possible to connect the interrail-pass to the reservations so we would’nt get any discounts. I am super stressed and feel like this needs to be done before all the tickets are sold out. HOW DO I CONNECT MY PASS TO INT.BAHN.DE. Please help!!

hi team just another question regarding seat bookings. we are doing the long journey from Rome to Paris, - and we want to go through southern France instead of Switzerland. I know the train is leaving at 8:20am from Rome - on the 12th May but i wanted to ask, as it stops in Milan and we have to change train stations from Centrale to garibaldi in a half hour gap between the trains it said that the TGV inoui is departing from Garibaldi station in Milan. Just looking at worse case scenarios if. we miss our train how can we find if more trains are coming? and is there a chance we can keep our seats on the next train if we do. and can we book family booths through rail plus? ive heard they have some is there any recommendations on the best way to get to garibaldi, although its close walking alone ins 20 minutes, can anyone recommend the quickest way to get to garibaldi station from Centrale which gives us some time to find the platform?your assistance is greatly appreciated!

I wondered if anyone has experience of making bookings at Bulgarian Railway Stations as the app advised.We are travelling from Sofia to Ruse on May 29th and need reservations Sofia Sever to Gorna OryahovitsaGorna Oryahovitsa to RuseWe will arrive in Sofia on May 27th and will try to make reservations on that day for onward travel on May 29th. Will this work or there any other options for reservations?Thanks 

I have a small question that I have not been able to find a clear answer in the community. I'm interested in taking a 5-day global pass and I've read that trips inside/outside the country of origin don't subtract days from the package.To leave my country (Spain), I am most interested in travelling from Madrid to Barcelona and from there abroad (in my case, Lyon). Is this possible within the ‘day of departure’ allowed by the pass or can I only make one trip (example: Madrid to Lyon) to leave?Incidentally, this consultation is equally valid for the return to my country.I hope you can help me in the community. With anything, thank you. 

Hello!I am currently planning an interrail through the French Riviera and the Northwest Italy.My plan is to travel from Madrid, then Barcelona, travel by the French Riviera, Northwest Italy and finnally get to Milan. I want to make the whole travel by train, but I’m struggling to find options to get back to Madrid. One option was to get night trains, but I realized that there are not a lot of them… One of the options was to get a night train to Paris, and another one to Barcelona and finnaly, Madrid (so I wouldn’t need to pay for hostels). Do you think it's feasible? What other options should I consider? Thank you!

I'm in Sweden and the conductor just informed me that I need to sign in to the Eurail app to make a reservation for this train. However, the app is asking for a six character pass code. It says it is in my confirmation email, but the only pass number there is nine characters -- an E followed by eight digits.I have a paper Eurail pass, because I am a neanderthal and technology frightens me. How do I find the six character pass number? Or, how can I make reservations without the app? I've already made about a dozen trips on my pass, but this Swedish conductor is the first that insisted I need a reservation.

Hello,I plan to travel from Geneva to Annecy in June.I found TER 23420 on the SNCF website, and I intend to take this train to Annecy.but I cannot find this train on the Rail Planner app...😟 I would like to know if the Eurail Global Pass covers TER 23420?Or should I need to manually add this train to the Rail Planner app? Thank you in advance for your help!😊

I am trying to manually add ThamesLink journey from St Pancras to London Bridge because the Eurail app does not show trains. I have done this previously about 2 years ago but don't remember exactly how it's done. The Eurail app gives the following screen on starting manual addition: I entered the times approximately and train number is optional. Is this enough to generate a valid ticket or should I get exact train times from the ThamesLink app as below and put in exact departure and arrival times? Thanks in advance for your time! 

Hi there, My partner and I have finally purchased two eurail passes as we are travelling from Australia. We have not activated them as yet as we dont travel until june 16th this year. We both have the app on mobiles but are wondering how does this get validated by the train conductors ? Do they just check your phone for the pass or do they scan your phone ? Or do you have to print off a ticket every time from your phone to make a train trip ? I have always used and paid for paper tickets so this is very new for us, especially cause we plan to make 10 train trips so hoping for this to be simple. We may also need to get phone plans overseas as not sure if there is always working wifi.Thanks again.. 

Dear community,I am planning my next trip to Denmark, but on my way to one of my destinastions there are some railway maintance works, so no trains are running. There is a Togbus (Rail Replacement Bus) driving, but in the Interrail app it says it is out of network. On the website of Midttrafik it is stated that tickets wich are vailid on the trains, wich inlcudes Interrail, are valid on the Togbus. What are your experience in general with Togbus in Denmark? Do you guys have any experience with this?Thanks in advance!

traveling though europe in june. Trying to get from London to Barcelona on June 21st. Every train out of london is sold out. Does this mean the only option I have left is to fly out?

I have acquired a reservation with an IR-Pass. now I want to travel on the same train and keep theareservation but use it with a general trainticket.Is this possible? 

Bonjour, J’aimerais réserver mes places de train pour pouvoir être assise, mais je ne comprends vraiment pas comment faire. Je suis redirigée vers le site Interrail alors que je veux réserver mes places sur l’application DiscoverEU. Sur le site, on me parle de crédits pour réserver ma place et non d’euros. Ce n’est pas très clair, quelqu’un pourrait-il me détailler la procédure pour réserver ses places ? Merci

I am planning a trip in September/October starting from southern England and at the moment finishing in Vienna. If I flew to Scotland at the end of this trip could I use my inbound day of travel for a train from Scotland back to southern England? If that’s acceptable does the inbound travel day start as soon as I step off the flight or can it be started within the validity period for the global pass? Thanks in advance

I purchased my electronic passes (for two senior travelers) and put them into the Rail Planner app.Then I went to the website and purchased my reservations for three different days.  I was able to print those reservations.When I go to board the train, do I just show the reservations?  Or do I somehow need to show the pass on my phone?  I don’t understand how to bring up the pass.  It wants me to add Trips and Journeys, and I don’t really understand that since I have my reservations already - which are already in the app but not part of a “Journey.”  Oh, help!  I’m so confused and worried that the pass won’t work when we are there.One more question.  If I’m traveling to and from a destination on the same day, both trips only count as one day, right?

We are a family of 4 planning to travel on night trains in Norway this Summer. We have 1st class passes but this isn't always available which leaves my partner and 2 sons in a 3 berth cabin and me sharing with 2 female strangers. Is there any way to book 2 x 2 berths so we can travel together?

If I’m travelling from Amsterdam Centraal to Delft and need to change trains or platforms at Sloterdijk, with my paper Global Pass, do I write Sloterdijk or Delft as my destination. I won’t be leaving the station, just changing either platforms or trains.

Hi teamwe are coming to Europe in May and I had a few more questions.We are travelling in May but the global pass train from Rome to Paris with only one connection change in Milan has limited seats. How can I secure the seats in that line before without having to activate the pass? ( if we activate the pass now then we have 1 month to use it but we are coming next month) Are there police in the train stations and at what times we are worried about pick pockets in some of our destinations travelling with kidsyour assistance is greatly appreciated! wazma
