How can I make a reservation when the planner (online with "book reservations") says that a reservation is not required? I want ensure we have seats and am willing to pay the reservation fees. We want to travel on an EC thru Germany and Switzerland and then Regional train from Switzerland to France.
Solved
Can I make reservations even if the planner says none required?

Booking reservations for trains in Switzerland is a waste of money, unless you book them together with the German ones, since DB only charge once fee per journey (€4.50 in 2nd; €5.90 in 1st class), regardless of the number of trains in the journey.
+15Regionaltrains often can´t be reserved
Eurocity usually yes :) Bestway to reserve is directly with the Railcompanies much cheaper as with Interrail/Eurail :)

Please ask questions in the community and not via a private message. That's the quickest way to get a response. I don't work for Eurail/Interrail.
