If you want specific advice, then please always mention route, date and departure time.

Also take into account that many trains don't have reservations.


I am looking to book a train from Brussels-Central to Bruges and found the train I want to take.  It says open seating.  My question is how do I add this train to my planner in the Eurail App?  I realize it does not require a reservation but I would like to have all my scheduled trains in my trips on the app.  

 

Thank you for your assistance!

That's explained on this page:

The section “Getting ready to board the train” shows how to search for trains and add them to your trip.
