HiI have 3 eurail passes (1 adult & 2 seniors) for France. This is my first time using a pass.

Hi Trying to look into eSim card for May France trip (15 days). Bought “Eurail Pass 2nd class 6 days within 1 month” I would like to know if I need to have data running to show the following:My 3 Eurail Passes? My Trips for a particular day when I’m on the train? Seat reservations with their QR codes will be downloaded from gmail and stored on my phone (as documents)Plan to use data forscenic site “walking” navigation/metro/tram navigation Rail Planner app to show my tickets or explore train options look up a restaurant/boulangerie/patisserie whatsapp, email checking NO streaming of video or music.Last trip I used about 2 gb and a bit for a 15-day trip but I didn’t have a Eurail Pass though. All the tickets were bought at the machines. I also shared it with my mother via my personal hotspot but since it drained my phone battery, we didn’t do that except long train rides and those with outlets. This May trip, I will have the Eurail Passes.I understand whatever you suggest will be an est

HiA few days ago I purchase a one-country (France) Eurail pass.I used this link below to create a pass cover https://www.eurail.com/en/book-reservations#/generatePassCoverNumberhowever when I tried to use it on this page to purchase 3 seat reservations, it didn’t work for me. Also I’ve tried to generate a new pass cover #, it provided one but again, still I couldn’t proceed with the purchase.Luckily I had 2 other travellers so I used one of their pass ref# to generate a pass cover # and managed to use it for the purchase. (I used this pass cover # in 3 boxes on the online form) Has anyone encountered such issues? Should I be concerned?
HiI've used this site https://travel.b-europe.com/Eurail-GE/en/booking-tgv#TravelWish but I can't see TGV 5537 for May 13 2024 (14:05 Colmar to 17:56 Lyon on Rail Planner app. Therefore I cannot add this journey to my Trip in the app. On RailPlanner app I only see - TGV 2239 running the same time and same route.On Rail Europe.com & Trainline.com, you see both TGV 5537 & TGV 2239 Does anyone know why this is happening? How can I rectify the situation?Thank you.
HiWith the help of fellow Eurail community members, I was able to purchase seat reservation for May 11 CDG to Strasbourg. I couldn’t find Eurail France pass 2nd class, so I chose Eurail Global Pass 2nd class and bought 3 seat reservations.Help Rail Europe replied with the following: Please note that you have a single country pass, due to which you won't be able to book the seat reservation on our website, as we do not have the option to add a single country pass currently on our website. Is it true that I can’t purchase seat reservation from Rail Europe with my Eurail France pass 2nd class?Does anyone know how refund works with Rail Europe? [I’ve since found the cancellation option inside the app and have requested that.]Please help!Thank you
From this post https://community.eurail.com/train-connections-reservations-47/how-to-get-reservations-105it mentioned that one can call SNCF rail for seat reservation.In the orange box at the top it says it’s operating hours are 7 days from 08.00 to 20.00 https://www.sncf-voyageurs.com/en/customer-service/contact-us/telephone/ Sorry to be silly but can I ask if this is France time or what?Has anyone been able to make a seat reservation by calling? What’s needed? Any issues? Do we provide credit card numbers over the phone? Do we need to create any SNCF account? Thank you in advance.
Hi I’ve read the important info in this post: https://community.eurail.com/train-connections-reservations-47/how-to-get-reservations-105Train travels within France only Travel date: May 11, 2024; flight land at 10:20am First train ride needed: CDG airport TGV to Colmar (have purchase 3 eurail passes - 6 days within 1 month)I understand that I can only purchase seat reservation 90 days in advance. so should be to purchase on Feb 11. Questions:On Deutsche Bahn, Trainline & Rail Planner app, both show 16:52 -19:21 (1 TGV 9874 + 1 TER 96235). Yes I’ve read from the link above that I should not use Rail Planner to plan my trips.However on SNCF Connect app, it shows 2:59pm to 6:21pm (3h22min; TGV 9874 to Strasbourg; then TER 96233 to Colmar)Which schedule is correct? How could TGV 9874 be happening at 16:52/4:52pm (Deutsche Bahn, Trainline & Rail Planner apps) and also at 2:59pm (SNCF Connect app info)I’m guessing the SNCF Connect app is wrong. What are you advice on which apps or
HiI’m planning/learning/researching for May 2024 France-only trip. Will need to store 3 mobile passes on 1 iPhone (2 seniors & 1 adult). Have not bought the 7-day eurail pass yet. I am trying to understand how I should name my “folders” on the Rail Planner app.“My Pass”: I believe this is where I will see the 3 passes (once bought & loaded on the iPhone)“Planner”: when I do a test search using the “Planner” tab, after I select a journey, click on “Save journey”, I’m not sure which “folder” I should save in. (See “My Trip” for more details).“My Trip”: this is a problematic area for me. What is the “Trip Name” supposed to be?using dates such as “May 19, 2024”? using locations ? “Paris Est to Colmar”? or just a general name like “France 2024”? I really want to do it correctly as I also need to duplicate journeys/trips to add to the other 2 senior passes on my iPhone. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi everyone:I’m researching, learning about Eurail pass for France (within France only trains) for May 2024 trip with senior parents. I will have put all 3 passes on my iPhone as we will be travelling together the whole time. (I have not bought the Eurail pass yet.)I’ve read the Guide Sorry if it’s a silly question but I didn’t see anything on how to save/where to save a seat reservation (understood best to buy from this site https://travel.b-europe.com/Eurail-GE/en/booking-tgv#TravelWish )Can I ask once a seat reservation is bought, do I store/save the QR code or whatever the format to my iPhone wallet? Once I have bought the pass then I show the pass, the “trips” for that day and the seat reservation (QR code in PDF somewhere on my phone)? Is that the idea?Thank you in advance.
