Just looking on the TGV Lyria reservations through the Interrail system. It is showing me a minimum of £229.62 for a journey in October. Can this really be correct? Just for a ‘reservation’?
Looking at buying an interrail pass for a long journey. The eurostar 1st class is all sold out and the rest of the journey will be sleeper, so there’s only part of the journey (Zurich to Wörgl) that I would to take business class.Can I purchase 2nd clas reservations and then buy an upgrade? From 2nd to 1st, then pay the 15 euro supplement for business.The difference in interrail pass classes (£180) is cheaper than buying this ticket separately (£310) so cheaper for me to get the 1st class pass than buying it separately, but if I could have 2nd class and an upgrade, that would be better.
Hi, I’m currently in Munich and I’d like to make my way up to Sweden in a relaxed way over the course of a week. I was wondering about Munich - Vienna - Prague, but then I’m not sure where to go inbetween. Any ideas? Have been to a lot of cities so I’m also up for somewhere smaller.
This was my itineraryBrussels to Cologne - Thalys 9471 - 19:25 - 21:15 Cologne to Zurich - OBB nightjet NJ403 - 23:42 - 8:05There is a flood at Cologne Hbf apparently which means no trains are calling there. That’s ok, I can reroute via Aachen to get to Cologne.However apparently due to a strike by the Dutch railway, the nightjet Amsterdam - Zurich is starting at Frankfurt (I think). Which I don’t seem to be able to get to in time to catch it up.I’ve tried calling the OBB helpline on +43 (0)5 1717 but it says number not recognised from my UK phone.I’m not sure what to do to get to Zurich for tomorrow morning, if it’s possible. Is anyone able to work it out? Or at least confirm exactly where the sleeper is starting from at what time.
I was hoping to do this trip:Brussels/Paris - ViennaVienna - HamburgHamburg - Stockholmbut unfortunately for early September these are sold out. Are there any other night trains that are a bit less popular and I’d still be able to get reservations for the first few weeks of September?Also the new Hamburg - Stockholm sleeper seems to be completely unavailable right up to mid-December. I can’t find a single date that has booking available. Is that because every single ticket has been sold out?
I am looking at buying an interrail pass (from the UK) as I will be housesitting for a couple of months in various places in Europe. The nature of housesitting is that things can be a bit spontaneous, plans can change and I’ll need to take opportunities as they come up. Hence why a pass where I can simply hop on a train is very appealing.Looking on beurope at reservations I see that many popular routes like London - Amsterdam or Paris - Barcelona have already sold out for 3 weeks, negating a lot of the flexibility advantage.I’ll be travelling around Scandinavia, Germany, Netherlands, France and Spain/Portugal.Is this a normal state of affairs or are they normally more accessible a few days in advance at other times of the year?If this is just normal would anyone be able to give me a list of the routes that tend to sell out more than a week in advance? And then presumably there are workarounds for at least some of these with slower trains.
