I need to travel from Geneva to Venice with my family of 5 on July 23rd. I cannot figure out a way to use our Eurail Global Passes for this. When I try to book through Eurail, it says that reservations are required (I think for bus tickets, maybe?) but doesn’t seem to give me an option to reserve anything. Suggestions?

The Simplon route (Domodossola - Milan) engineering works are affecting your journey. Trains are replaced by buses over the summer. In addition SBB and Trenitalia are running 3 daily non-stop buses from Geneva/Lausanne to Milan. Those should be available on https://www.raileurope.com/ (desktop version, click on add rail pass). 13€ passholder fare.
For the Domodossola - Milan buses you’d have to visit a Swiss ticket counter for the 3€ passholder fare (or buy a 13€ ticket online).

I’m planning to take the Geneva - Milan and Milan - Domodossola buses in 2 weeks so I could give a feedback here. ;)
