Solved

How I hate Interrail and I haven’t even started yet, so confused and think it would have been better and maybe cheaper to have bought tickets directly. Anyhow I want to go from Paris to Barcelona by TGV but it looks like I can make a seat reservation (expensive!) but can’t even choose my seat, really would like a window seat. can I get a seat reservation directly from SNCF or do they only sell tickets? Is there a cheaper train to Barcelona or one that doesn’t ned a seat reservation or one where I can choose my seat?many thanks

I have booked a 8 day pass and I have booked some reservations for a seat on some trains however I noticed that I need to also use Regional trains to get to where I need to go. Am I able to get on the regional trains without a ticket if I have bought a eurail pass?

Hi all, how do i add a journey to my trip if the journey does not show on the planner?Example: I’m travelling from Brussels to Berlin via Cologne. Int.bahn.de shows this service at 06.25, 08.25, 10.25, 11.25, 12.25, 13.25 and so on. Trip planner shows the service only starting from 11.25 and then less frequently than is actually timetabled.I have the same thing with other journeys where i can see a single direct service exists, it accepts interrail reservations but it is not shown as an option on the planner - which advises tortuous 5+ change routes adding hours and 100s of unnecessary miles to the trip. What am i missing?

On my first day of travel I need to go from Innsbruck to St Moritiz. The planner is saying I need to take three trains. My question is do I book the three trains individually and get 3 tickets or do I book it as one trip Innsbruck to St Moritz and get one ticket? Thank you

We are trying to book a train from Ljubljana to Como. We have booked a train from Ljubljana to Villach HBF on the 16th of July, separate to the interail pass, as we didn't want to waste a travel day. We are going to spend the evening out in Austria and get a night jet in the early morning. On the the 17th, we have booked a night jet from villach HBF to Brescia (1:34 - 6:32), using the interail card discount, and then we are going to reserve a train from Brescia to Como (via Milan). Here is our planned route on the OBB website. The only thing is that we cannot find the train from villach to Brescia (or villach to como) on the interail app to add to our pass, so we have the QR code to accompany our seat reservations on the trains (which we need right?).Why can’t we find it on the app? Do I need to refund our reservation from villach to Brescia?  

My family and I agave the Eurail Pass and have been using it for 3 weeks.  Our next stop is Paris. We are staying in Montrouge for 4 nights and then flying out of Charles de Gaulle Airport.  How do I find the closest train station in the Eurail network to where I’m staying in Montrouge.  Is there a function on the Eurail App that allows you to see all the stations that are in network? I’ve messed around with the app a fair bit but still haven’t found a way to do this.  I’d be grateful for any help you can provide.

I will arrive from Bari to Patras and want to catch trains from Patras in this orderPatras to Diakopto on day OneDiakopto to Kalavryta return on day twoOn day three Diakopto to Athens Halkali, arrival 9:20 urban transport to Sog and on same day Athens to Thessaloniki. The trains are all showing on Trainose and on European printed timetable. I don't anticipate any problems until day three when I want to travel to Thessaloniki on IC 52 leaving at 10:58 if possible. So, at last here is my question…..Can the Patras ticket office make this reservation, and is it reasonably likely that the train will still have room on May 13th? If not, are any of the later trains likely to have room? Crystal ball event, I know.Thank you 

Hi everyone, I haven’t bought my Eurail pass yet, but my family (6 adults and a 1 year old) are travelling for 14 days in Europe from 8/27 - 9/10. We will be going from Zurich to Interlaken, Interlaken to Geneva, Geneva to Brussels, then finally Brussels to Amsterdam. We assume the Eurail pass will save us money, but need to confirm that we can get from Geneva to Brussels. When I do the “Plan My Trip” feature through Eurail.com, it shows all trains into and out of Paris are sold out, regardless of the dates I use. Even if I try for mid summer. I’ve seen people mention b-europe.com and just want to make sure that is a legitimate website, because if so, our dates are available for Geneva-Paris and Paris-Brussels on 9/1 (our planned day to travel. Any insight into your experience is greatly appreciated 😀

I am looking a my train options for my Europe trip, many of the trains say that the ticket reservation is optional. When I put them in my cart they have an extra charge. Is this just because I am choosing to book in advance or is this the standard price of the train that I would pay whether I book in advance or not? Also is this worth it to book in advance when it is optional?

Just trying to buy a couple of Global passes. Everything fails at the payment screen, I get -Anyone else had this issue? I’ve tried using Chrome, Chrome Incognito, Edge, Edge InPrivate, Windows, Android. Nothing. Same error. Any idea are very welcome, many thanks!Looking at the Inspect I see eurail.com trying to access checkoutshopper-live.adyen.com which is banned due to the website setup. Additionally it warns “Lit is in dev mode. Not recommended for production! ”.

Although on my selected train appears “free komfort (premium) class seats reservations for 1st class holders on Regiontog trains”, ENTUR will charge additional 500 NOK on REG 471 / REG 472 (Trondheim-Bodoe) for premium class. Only standard is free of charge.

hello, we are bloody beginners and have bought senior interrail passes. We are going to travel in Scandinavia on may 1st.  I activated our passes in the Rail planner app.After that I booked seats via SR, the Swedish Railway, from Hamburg to Stockholm, and from Stockholm to Göteborg. When ordering I had to fill in the interrail pass numbers.I got tickets for that with QR codes. Are these tickets enough, or are they just reservations?Do I have to add the journeys also in the rail planner app and get other tickets?I know these are propably stupid questions but would be grateful for help!

Is there a problem with the trip planer? It looks like all reservations from Brussels to London are booked. But b-europe website seems to have plenty reservations for Interrail pass holders…

Hi all,actually I’m preparing for my travel around Spain that will be real in the next two weeks, I’m trying to book my reservation seats for a travel between Valencia and Alicante but at the moment I want to pay suddenly it says that there are erros with my data.I checked and my data are correct, I really don’t know and I also text to the assistance but I’m discovering that railpass is not amazing app for this. Do you know some other sites or app I can use just to book reservation?I tried to go directly on Renfe website but actually it just sell full ticket, I can’t book the seat reservation.It’s my first time interrail and it’s my first travel alone longer than a weekend, so please I’m bit scared that everything could go wrong, it would be nice to have all seats reserved before taking my flight to Spain.Thanks for any advices you’d like to give me! :) 

Hi, I cannot make a seat reservation for Spain neither in Rail app neither in rail Europe.com 

Bonjour! I’m traveling through France and I’m wondering if there’s an efficient way to figure out if a train station has escalators or elevators? I’ve tried to look at Gare SNCF websites (but it’s not always clear), or trying to use Google or Apple maps to see if there are elevator icons. I downloaded Ma Gare but it’s not super clear to me since they lump “disability services” together with everything. I have two suitcases (one very large) and a backpack so stairs were doable. Trying to plan more efficiently and get more accurate information. (also trying to plan for the future when I bring stroller) I discovered at Toulouse Matabiau there was only one hall with escalators to the platforms (luckily I was early so I walked over to the other hall. I only knew this because I happened to leave from there the week prior).Is there a way to see which platform/halls to take to make transit easier? Or is it just a no-go if you have luggage and just need to deal? I arrived in Narbonne two days a

I am an exchange student in Germany (non-european), but I already have residence permit for 6 months in Germany (my semester period) I want to travel to Switzerland and Italy in one trip, so which pass is available for me? Eurail Pass or Interail? Thank you in advance

We have 4 travelers in our group.  I created a travel plan and trip in my app.  I shared the link to all parties involved.  2 were able to add the trip to their app after clicking on the link and activating their passes.  The third individual clicked the link and it added to the app but says “it is not attached to a Pass”.   We are unable to add this trip.  When we logged into the account, it connected and downloaded the reservations that were created but won’t connect the trip we created with all the train travel for 5 days.  I would really like to avoid manually entering all the trips into their phone.   Any suggestions?

Hi all. So I am booking Bernina Express to Tirano, then I wish to travel onwards to one of Varenna, Lecco or as far as Milan. Trouble is that the Planner app does not show any reasonable routes. I can get as far as Colico (regional train RE87851), but then it indicates buses which leave next day at 4 in the morning! Surely there is a railway line right along the Lake Como coast thru Varenna to Lecco to Milan that I could use? UPDATE: MY travel date is Friday 23rd May 2025, from lunch time onwards. Checking other peoples similar questions, some line upgrades for Olympics are notified for June, but not for May

I’m traveling from Sitges to Paris via Barcelona in June and am entering the trips in my rail planner app. I have Barcelona to Paris taken care of with a seat reservation and have the trip uploaded in my app. However, I cannot find the Sitges train station on the app to add the journey from Sitges to Barcelona. I’m assuming this journey is covered by the Eurail pass and I can just add it manually? I realize I could just buy a cheap ticket from the station, but since I’m already using my pass the same day to get from Barcelona to Paris, I thought I might as well use the pass for the journey from Sitges to Barcelona that same day as well. Thanks in advance for the help!

I adding a journey from Montreux to Zweisimmen arriving at 17:57.  I then tried adding a journey from Zweisimmen to Lauterbrunnen departin at 18:02.  It says”  It looks like you will be on another train at this time.  Please adjust your prior journey”   Obviously, I will not be on another train but assumed it thought the connection was too tight so I tried adding the train which departs one hour later.  It said the same thing.  What am I doin wrong?  Do I just wait until I arrive and then remove the first one and try adding the second journey ?
