Reservations Girona (Spain) - Paris Summer 2023

Hey!Last year we already traveled with interrail and thought we had everything under control…. I went this afternoon to the counter to book our first trip (already bought the interrail pass online) and they told me that it is no longer possible to reserver for trains going from spain to paris. i tried throught the app (not working) and also in the sncf page (I do not know how to link the ticket to my interrail pass). Can someone enlighten us 🙏? Thanks in advance! Marian

Problem with connection in Hamburg

Hello there!First time using interrail… I plan to go from Paris to Lund in Sweden on August 17th. When I try to pay for my seat reservations it says that the connection cannot be booked right now. So I tried yesterday and now today again. It seems like there is a problem of connection around Hamburg.I checked DB website and there it says that the Manheim Hbf - Hamburg Hbf trip is cancelled. However there is an arrow and then it says Hamburg-Altona. Does anybody know if that means that the train will still go to Hamburg but stop at Altona station instead of Hbf?In this case I would be up for any tip regarding the quickest way to go from Altona to Hbf ^^Thank’s a lot in advance!Madou

Frecciarossa booked sets

On Eurail web site, trying to book 2 reserved seats on Frecciarossad train between Bologna and Firenze. Looks like I can do this but I see no step to reserve specific seats or have them assigned. Do I select seats when I board? Would like to sort this out before I actually pay for them.Is this normal or did I miss a step?

No reservation required....BUT it's expected to be very busy

Hi, We have a Global Eurail pass and will be traveling from Amsterdam to Bruges the day AFTER Kings Day. We expect a lot more “traffic” than usual on the trains that day. The website says “You’re ready to board” without a reservation, but a friend who recently returned from Europe said that they had a few occasions where were turned away on the day due to the train being full, despite the website saying no reservation was required.It is possible, or advised, that we pay for a reservation “just in case”? Or are we being silly?If reservations are recommended, how do I do this under the circumstances.Thank you soooo much in advance.Di Borg

Can't book reservations Berlin-Krakow ''prices unavailable''

I am trying to reserve our seats between Berlin and Krakow, when I am not logged in, I can see the price for the reservation, but when I log in, I get the message “Prices unavailableNo price results were found for this connection. It is possible that all pass holder seats are sold out. Please try searching for another connection or check 'More information' and try other ways to book this seat reservation. If no pass holder seats are available anymore you need to buy a separate full fare ticket to board.”Am I missing something?

Reservation time does not match the train times on the website

Hello,I booked a reservation from London to Paris via Lille. According to my reservation the train leaves at 11.04 but when i look for the train on the website I cannot find it to add to my trip. I now understand that the app is offline so times may not match but I thought the website would be correct - also does it matter if the time in my trips is different from the reservation.Sorry if this is a bit basic but I am a newby.

suggested routes from Northern Italy to Paris

HiI am trying to find a sensible route from Northern Italy/Switzerland back to Paris at the end of my month long pass planned for next April, with the aim that this can be covered in a day or two day max. I am happy for this to be High speed and require reservations. Just prior to this I intend to have a few days in Switzerland in and around the routes of Bernina and Glacier express, though probably local trains rather than scenic routes. So for example I will not be far from Milan as a starting point.Or I could step off from Switzerland back to Paris.Can any one suggest possible routes?ThanksMalcolm

Can't book Madrid-Barcelona leg - how to book?

I’m trying to get the seat reservations travelling from Madrid to Paris, but in the first train (Madrid-Barcelona) it tells me that I can’t get it in the interrail web, and reservation is compulsory, does anyone knows what I have to do? Also, in many other train travels it just tells me there is no information of reservations, so I don’t know if I have to get one somehow.

Eurail Question from Paris to Luzern

I booked reservations from Paris to Luzern. It's three legs - Paris to Mulhouse, Mulhouse to Basel, then Basel to Luzern. When I bought the ticket on Eurail, the reservation on the ticket only said it was to Mulhouse. However, when I look at the ticket on my eurail account, it says "ready to board" for those last two legs. Just concerned my ticket does not reflect all of the way to Luzern.

Justification for additional reservation fee?

Dear all!It is unfortunate that there are extra costs for purchasing reservations generally - but that by itself is at least somewhat understandable. I honestly struggle though to understand why I am supposed to pay 2€ extra for each reservation I make through the internal portal. Whenever possible I change to the website of the national carrier: But that doesn't always even work, i.e. with Trenitalia or SNCF.Would someone here know why Interrail wants all of us to pay 2€ extra for every reservation made through their portal?

I've paid for seat reservation but had no confirmation

Hi, about 2 weeks ago I booked seat reservations for my EU rail pass for my family on the TGV from Perpignan to Paris on 27 Aug. My credit card has been charged but I've had no email conformation, and when I email customer services I get no response. Any ideas how to sort this would be welcome, thanks!

Problem booking seat reservation online

Hello everyone,I won the interrail global pass (7 days of travel over a month) and I have problems to make seat reservations.I plan to leave this summer from July 30th to August 15th from France to Germany, Poland, Hungary and finally Austria.When I try to book my seat for the trip from Berlin to Gdansk by train on July 31st, on the interrail website it says for all trains: "Prices unavailableNo prices were found for this route. It is possible that seats for Pass holders are sold out. Look for another route or see "More Information" for other booking options. If Pass seats are sold out, you will need to purchase a full-fare ticket to travel on this train".I would like to know if all the seats are taken (I would be surprised if this is the case since all the trains every day for several months show this)I am waiting for your feedback Thanks a lot
