My family of 4 (incl 2 teens) are taking the train across borders in Western Europe for the first time in November. So far, a couple of the journeys we’re researching indicate that 1 or 2 train changes are needed. Some of the routes indicate that we have just 15 mins to change trains at a certain station. These include :(i) Munich - Lucerne (8 or 12 mins at Zurich)(ii) Lucerne - Dijon (14 or 16mins at Mulhouse Ville) Qn 1 : What is a good buffer we should give ourselves to change trains ? Qn 2 : When encountering such routes, what are the alternatives without prolonging the journey too much ?Qn 3 : What is the most important thing to do (to keep to our schedule closely) if there is a missed connection using (i) the EURail pass, or (ii) single journey ticket ? Thank you.
We are a family of 4 (Daddy, Mummy, 2 teens), planning to bring our kids to the continent for the first time in November. We are also going to use EURail across borders for the first time. We have 2.5 weeks, and plan to visit France, Germany and Switzerland. We wish to do a loop, starting and ending in Paris, and have booked a 2-3 nites in each city/town.Some blogs/sites mention the (cheaper) 3 country pass but am unable to find it on the EURail webpages. Is it still available this year ? If not, how many days would one recommend for the Global Pass ? There are reports about how the app sometimes does not work properly. Will it be possible to print out a hard copy of the pass also as a backup ? Or is it just more convenient to have a physical pass ? Should I buy the pass for my family now ?Alvin
