No trains to Sicily in August and September. Why?

Hello everyone,me and a friend want to travel to Sicily in the Summer and we already started planning our trip (even though we still have over 6 months before we leave). We noticed that there are absolutely no trains available for August and September. Are we just way to early or are there simply no trains? What are your experiences? When should the train times be online?We checked both the Interrail website and the Trenitalia website.Thank you in advance!!

Trains in Italy; train schedule summer 2022

I am trying to plan a trip to Italy in the Summer of 2022 when I was looking online at the train schedules, I noticed that after a certain date, some trains are not available. For example I was looking at trains from Rome to Perugia and it shows trains that are available until June 12, after June 12 there are no trains that go from Rome to Perugia. I found this with a few other trains, is there something I am looking at wrong or do the trains just not run after June 12?I was thinking maybe it has to do with being too far in advance but I am able to look at other itineraries a year in advance.I have traveled a lot throughout Europe but this will be my first time using EuRail, so I am still a little unsure of how it works! I would love to book my trip as soon as I can so any help would be greatly appreciated!

If I miss my connecting train, for which I have a reservation, due to a delay, can I take the next train?

If I miss my connecting train, on which I need a reservation and have already paid for it, due to the delay of the previous train, can I simply take the next train without making a new reservation? Or do I have to make a seat reservation again for this train?And what if this next train doesn't go all the way to my destination (like the train I wanted to take), but has an intermediate stop and I have to change to a train where I also need a reservation?Thanks for your helpTeresa

Is there a train to Paris CDG airport covered by the Pass?

I’m in Paris. I want to pick up someone from the airport CDG. I’m in Gare De Nord. Are there any trains that can get me there and back? I have the one month pass and she has the 10 day pass. Every time I try and book travel it says it’s not in the network. It has worked in every other country and city but not Paris? Can someone explain why.

Eurail Global Pass and Ferries

Are any ferries between Italy and Greece included (i.e. not just discounted) in the Eurail Global pass? If so, what are they and where can I find them? I’m a little confused because on the Eurail map it clearly shows ferry routes between the two countries, but when searching the Eurail site all I can find is ferry services that are discounted. Thanks!!

Is the reservation still effective when i catch another train to continue after the stop? or do i need to make several reservations? thanks

No option to reserve seats; London to Amsterdam

My girlfriend and I bought an EURAIL pass and can't reserve a seat from London to Amsterdam. The EURAIL app will not let us boom a reservation for a train from London Pancreas to Amsterdam Centraal despite saying we need a reservation. To double check if the train was booked for pass holders, I checked both the farthest available dates with dates a few months ahead and before our trip and still can't make a reservation via the site. It appears the only way to have a reservation is to buy tickets which defeats the purpose of buying a EURAIL pass in the first place. How do we book tickets with the promised price of $34 per person? We even synced the pass to the trip which said it would be okay to reserve. The starting date is April 1 at 7:00 AM GMT.

How far in advance should I get to the station and do trains have a limit on number of people they allow?

I’m interrailing in May-June time and wasn’t planning on booking reservations when they’re not required. On the rail planner app it says the train times, for example Berlin- Brussels, 6:46am-13:26pm, does this mean that the train leaves the station at 6:46 or arrives at the station at that time. How long before setting off do the trains get to the station, how far in advance should I get there to ensure I get on? Also, if I haven’t reserved a seat, is there a limit to the amount of people that the train allows (I assume I will be standing which is fine). Will the train just fill up or is there a maximum amount of passengers allowed. I don’t want to not be able to miss/not get on as there’s a big gap between train times.

Cannot reserve seats on trains Scandinavia

I have a question regarding seat reservations. I am planning to travel from 26-06 untill 07-07 through Scandinavia. For this I bought the interrail global pass. Now I wanted to look to make seat reservations for the trains, but there is not possibility to reserve any seats on the tracks I want. They all show an exclamation mark on the site and when I look on the other site, like for example for Sweden, it says 'not available'.I looked for seats on the track Stockholm to Kopenhagen (29-06), Copenhagen to Gothenburg (02-07) and Gothenburg to Oslo (04-07). I thought everything would be fine as I looked up train times before buying the pass, but now I cannot reserve seats so that would mean I got the pass and booked flights for nothing. Or is this because it is still so far away and will there be seats available later? I would like to know more about this. I hope someone can help me and inform me about this. Thanks in advance.

What happens during changing of trains

Hello! Some background context: I have never travelled in Europe and hence have never boarded any of these Eurail trains before. Also, my vaccination is not an EMA vaccination and hence is not recognised in all European cities. I thus make sure that my country I am setting off from and my destination country all accept my vaccination type.However, I am concerned about the issue of having to change trains during the journey, and would like to ask about the procedures that take place during changing of trains in a stopover country during the journey. Specifically, if I have to change trains in countries that don’t accept my vaccination type, will I be stopped from changing trains? Or is it that so long as I can board the train from my starting country, there will be no issue in changing trains in the stopover city i.e. vaccination status will not be in issue during the stopover?Thank you so much!

How to book using interrail - trainOSE - Athens to Thessaloniki

Hi guys,I’ve noticed on the TrainOSE website, that they do online booking:However in the ticket price there is no interrail option. On the rail planner app and interrail site it says in person bookings/reservations only, does that just mean the day of and would we be at risk of not getting seats if others can book online? Thank you all,Alexia
