Train connections & reservations

Hey. It’s me again. I am FREAKING OUT. I’m leaving with my friend on the 31th or July or the 1st of August - or at least I’m supposed to. We are cool with the first stop, it could be Amsterdam or any city in Germany really. The thing is that EVERY Interrail ticket is BOOKED. We don’t know where to go, we can’t travel later than that. What the fuck is happening? Why sell 500 euros Interrail passes if you can’t travel with it? PLEASE help. It’s urgent.

Hello,When I try to book my seats, I get all tickets with “Not avaiable for some travellers”. Do you know wher it comes from ?  

Bonjour tout le monde...  Pour info,les personnes qui voyagent prochainement en Italie,qui habitent en ile de France et qui ne peuvent pas prendre de billets par Railplanner, parce que cela ne marche pas, peuvent se rendre au guichet Trenitalia a la Gare de Lyon a côté de la voie N.Ceci concerne uniquement les trajets intra Italie, et pas les trajets entrant ou sortant. Voila voila

I want to book a train from Rotterdam to Paris. But when I am booking at interrail I see this: ‘No price results were found for this connection. Please try searching again or find an alternative way to book.’…. When I go to the site of Thalys, I see that there still are some spots left… But how can I enter there my interrail ticket???

non riesco a pagare i treni che devono essere riservati. una mia amica è riuscita a fare il biglietto sia a me ch a lei ma vale lo stesso ? anche se non è collegato al mio pass? 

Hi, there seems to be a problem with the website.  I can only login if I use google.  I first logged in using a password but it will no longer let me.My friend has the same problem. She managed to log in once and book one reservation, but now she can no longer do so. She asks for a password reset just in case, but this was never sent. She doesn't have a google account so can’t log in that way.Can anyone help - is this a temporary problem with the website, or can you only login with google or facebook?If so she is completely stuck! 

Hello, I need a pass cover number to book a seat reservation with Thalys, but I have a mobile pass so I do not have a cover number. I have tried to request one from support, but with the recent delays in answer, I am not hopeful. I am afraid it will sell out before they get back to me.  Any Ideas for a work-around? 

Hi!I am travelling to Spain in late August with Interrail pass. I have looked into a few other threads where I have found the number +34 912 320 320 to call for booking seat reservations since I doesn’t seem possible to book seat reservations for trains i Spain over the internet. I live in Sweden and am arriving in Figueres Vilafant about 1-2 hours before the first train I aim to book in Spain.I have called several times trying to book seat reservations. First time they said it was too early and that I had to call back when there was 3 months left until my trip. Second time they said it was something wrong with their system but that they would mail me a link which I had to click on to approve the booking, or something like that. Unfortunately i never got the mail. Now that I tried calling for the third time they say that I can’t book seat reservations until 3 days before my trip, but that I can buy tickets now to the train if I want(however then that is not linked to my Interrail pass)

We are in a small town of Norway just above Brønnøysund. We arrived here from Trondheim with an non-reservation train last Sunday. Now, we want to go on tomorrow, but the next non-reservation train passes through on Saturday and we can't buy an reservation because it's post-only that will need 6 days and it seems like there is no personelle here that could help us. Do you have any ideas what we can do to get out of here without paying 120€ for a separate ticket and not waiting here till Saturday and go in the opposite direction we want or wait 1 Week here because there are no digital reservations. The only thing for what I know is ask people that work on the train before boarding.

How does it work on trains with "Seat reservation not required"? Can you get in without making a reservation? Is it on a first come, first served basis? Is entry to the train guaranteed? 

We are travelling to Tirano from Varenna soon. I know all about the trackworks and there is a replacement bus. However when looking on the interrail app to add the trip it is showing the first part of the journey by train to Colico is "not in network" why is this the train is RE 10316. 

Hello.. I am new to this eurail website and I started planning my travel and I saw in planner in mobile app I turned on filter for No seat reservations required and searched for travel from kopenhagen to hamburg. In the results I get I see high speed train and one IC train and it says the reservation is recommended.I want to know is it just a suggestion or I have to do reservation in that case?

Hallo, vielleicht kann mir jemand helfen. Ich versuche auf verschiedene Art und Weise Züge in Schweden zu reservieren und komme nicht zum Ziel. Schon bei der ersten Zugverbindung von Hamburg nach Malmö gelingt es mir nicht weder über die DB noch über die SJ oder Interrail Seite einen Sitzplatz zu reservieren.Ich kann auch nicht über die DB Seite nur die Reservierung buchen wir üblicherweise. Ich vermute ich mache irgendetwas falsch oder kann es sein, dass tatsächlich alle Züge ausgebucht sind.? Ich bin eigentlich diesbezüglich nicht so unerfahren, aber überhaupt nicht mit dem schwedischen Buchungssystem zurecht.Auch die Zugverbindung von Stockholm nach Oslo werden mir als nicht buchbar angezeigt.Bei der SJ App habe ich das Problem dass ich die englische Sprache nicht anwählen kann (trotz Kontakt mit dem Kundendienst Support ist mir das nicht gelungen) auf der Internetseite von SJ kann ich zwar die Züge sehen finde aber nicht den Button „nur Reservierung“.Ich würde mich über eine Antwor

I’m trying to make a sleeper reservation on the Nightjet Amsterdam to Munich on 14th August. The website won’t let me pay and gives me this error code:Reservation error (NJ-Code: NJ-02, TS-Code: WBS08085, Public ID: 70fd2fb9f0b847f49fcf33f36edde9a8, Support ID: NIGHT1_bB91lD85)Does anyone understand what this means?I’ve tried to get though the the support line in Austria but don’t speak German so I was wondering is there another way of making this reservation does anyone know? Many thanks

We are trying to travel from Bled to Zagreb on the morning of the 14th July. The train we want to get on is the EN40465 from Lesce Bled at 7:31 to Zagreb at 10:49. However on the OBB website this train is showing as not available to book tickets for. Does that mean the train is not running? Or just that it is fully booked? And would we be allowed to travel on this train with our passes but without a seat reservation - we are happy to stand! 

Travelling from London to Rome.  Train from Paris to Milano change over for 3 hours in Chiasso (Switzerland Railway between 1:56am to 5:13am.  Is it advisable to take this train?  How is the railway station at that time of the morning.  Anything open 24 hours coffee shop etc… I dont want to stand alone in a dark cold station please help. Are there any safety concerns with a 3-hour layover at the Chiasso station (1 am to 4 am) ? Have anyone done this before and please provide experience.

Bonjour, Pour info, le planificateur ne marche pas du tout, il faut cliquer 50 fois sur l horaire qui nous convient et quand enfin on y arrive, il multiplie par deux le montant des reservations alirs que tout est tres bien renseigné pour deux personnes des le debut…Je commence a regretter sérieusement de m etre embarqué la dedans..... 

We're a family of 4 planning on going Amsterdam → Bruges on the 26th of July, sometime late morning or early afternoon. After looking on Eurail, we essentially have two options: Thalys or IC.Thalys to Brussels, IC to Bruges USD $94 IC to Brussels, separate IC to Bruges (no reservation)Although slower, obviously number 2 seems to be the better option. But I'm concerned if there will be space on this train, as it's peak summer season and I’ve been told to reserve seats wherever I can. Obviously I'd hate to stand for 4 hours.

Hi! A few weeks ago I added the train from Hamburg to Copenhagen at 10.53-15.35 on the 6th of August to the interrail app. Now my friends have tried to do the same thing but it says it is no longer a train even though I checked on the Germany Rail Transport website (Deutsche Bahn) that it is still an existing train. What could be the problem? I specify that it was not a train that needed a reservation.

Hello,Next Monday, 18th July, I was taking the Eurocity train from Budapest to Prague at 11:40, and I already had the seat reservation because ir was obligatory according to the app. However, after the last update of the app, this train is missing. Why is that, and what do I have to do to travel that day from Budapest to Prague taking into account I already paid for ir? Thank you

Hi allWhen I missed the train because the train before was late, can I ask for a refund for my reservation, or ask for change of the reservation (if there is time enough for doing this...)  I have an Eurail ticket 1. class, but even more than one monthe before, I cannot reserve seats in the first class (DB ICE Frankfurt > Cologne). Reservations in this train are NOT mandatory. Are there “open” seats in such trains.Thanks for your help!

Does anyone know how I could get a reservation for a bed in a single sleeping compartment for the IR 407 "Corona" train between Budapest and Brasov? (this is another route than the Dacia and Ister night trains)Somewhat to my surprise, the Interrail reservation service is able to book reservations, but only on paper tickets, for which I am a bit too late already (departure 19/07).I know I can purchase this at the train station in Budapest, but are there any advance options I am missing?Thanks!

My friends and I booked 4 second class passes. We wanted to travel through Italy, so we had to reserve seats for those trains in Italy. We decided to do this via Interail. However, they sent us reservations for first class.So now we want to cancel the second class passes and book 4 first class passes, because there are no second class seats available on any other website. Our question is: can we still use the first class seat reservations we received with our new, first class passes, or are those reservations linked to our second class passes, because we booked those seats via our second class passes on Interrail?

 I am travelling around Europe and I am trying to book a night train ticket from Prague to Budapest. When I am booking my reservation on Eurail website it says “E-ticket unavailable” and prompts me to fill information to have a paper ticket delivered to my hotel.  does anyone know a different way to book this with no paper ticket needed?

Dear community, i am very upset. We bought the Greek Island Pass 6 days, long time ago in orther to planify our holidays with time and to avoid complications.  From more than 4 weeks we are trying to make a reservation using our pass with the only company that has service to Lemnos (Blue Star Ferries). We phoned several times, it’s very difficult to be attended and almost impossible to make the reservation with the pass, when we finally thought it was done, but they made only the booking for the car (obviously not included on the pass) the reservation for us was for an other day! When we finally could cancelled it we couldn’t make another reservation for the day that we have our car, maybe just our car will go on holiday. The problem is that by phone they say that our pass is not valid for the 5th of August, out of date they say (it is for one month and we start on the 3 of August!!) online it is impossible to.  They told us to talk with Interrail. We sent more mails to the ferry compa
