No tickets available Hamburg - Vienna

I tried for the first time to book a journey from Hamburg to Vienna with NJ. But I see that there is a notification that says “Tickets not available”. Does that mean that there are no tickets available or have I misunderstood something or missed some information?

Cant book reservations

We are currently in Scotland. We are trying to book a trip to Germany, that stops over in London, but somehow we can't. We tried to test it if its just London. But we can't book anything. We paid for the one month pass for approximately €682ish or $1100+ NZD.  We were wondering, if there are extra costs to actually book a train ride etc. What is the use of buying that expensive one month pass? Help please. If only we knew, we wouldn't have booked a eurail pass that expensive if it was going to be useless

What if I miss a train, can I take a next one?

Hello,I just activated my pass. Issued first ticket for a short trip. I chose a specific time. But what if I miss the train?. Can I take the next one.?Sorry, I  am not able to go through the previous answers if somebody already asked. Also, if I am siting on a seat noted as reservation with read light indicated, does that mean it is already reserved and I shouldn't sit there?Thank youMaymol

Do I need to make reservations in Montenegro or Serbia?

Hi! Are seat reservations required on the trains within Montenegro or within Serbia?As it is not possible to reserve online in advance I am wondering whether I only can jump on a train or I need to make the reservation. Also, how much do the reservations cost if they are required?

Are you guaranteed a seat if you have a eurail pass?

Are you guaranteed a seat if you have a eurail pass?  I bought this not realizing seat reservations are required for my itinerary for Spain and it is only allowing me to reserve in person.  I am afraid I will not get a seat since I only arrive two days before I travel on the train.

Reservations for group - France to Switzerland

Hi! My name is Aimee. I am traveling with a group of 14 people. We want to go from Paris to Interlaken, Switzerland on June 30th and we have the global passes. We have to be in Interlaken by 1530 at the latest. Eurail.com says I can only do 9 reservations at once, and some of the trains will only take 5 reservations. My questions are:For the trains that only do 5 or 9 reservations at a time, does that mean that there are only 5 (or 9) spots available for pass holders?  Do I have to pay for 1 set of 5 (or 9) people, then go back for the next set? When I try to switch to the 2nd group of travelers, the site says the train is already in my cart.  Is there a way to find out if one of the trains has 14 spots? I don’t want to book half my group on one train & half on another train. Thank you!Aimee

Booking seat reservations in Italy and France - ''prices temporarily unavailable''

Currently me and my friend are in frankfurt and planning on going to Berlin, Prague, Budapest, Vienna, bari then Rome Florence, Lyon, bourdeux then end in Paris for the rest of our trip. I have a global pass for eurail. We were able to book our reservations from Prague to Budapest via cd.shop. Then Budapest to Vienna without a seat reservation. I was able to use eurail website to book a reservation and pay from Vienna to Rome to bari. The payment went through but the next day I got an email saying that the Rome to bari leg didn't go through and they refunded me not even willing to rebook it for us. when looking for seat reservations for any trip in Italy and even France no options(prices) show up when using the website and it says "prices are temporarily available". I refreshed many times (every hour I searched) and still couldn't get a price. Using Italia rail website to try and reserve seats I couldn't find any trains and it didn't load. How can I travel through Italy to France with

Trouble With Reservations Again; Amsterdam - Berlin - leg no available

Anyone else having trouble reserving seats? Trying to reserve a seat from Amsterdam to Berlin, and it said that the leg was not available again but literally every single leg is unavailable. And it’s not even a seat that’s required. And why would it even give me the option to select the seat if when It’s time to pay for it, it tells me that it’s unavailable?

Reservation for Renfe train made by phone

I just called renfe and made a seat reservation for me and my children (all with interrai passes). The operator gave me a code, called something like Locator number, and told me I need to find it in the interrail site to pay for the seat reservations.They also said they will send the code to my email.1 - Does anyone know where can I add this Locator number in the interrail site? Has anyone some experience with renfe and this way of booking seat reservations?2 - What are best practices when the seat reservation is not possible to do in the interrail site? Neither on deutsche bahn site and neither on scnf or renfe… etcI did not get any email from them… now I am afraid there is no seat reservation and I will miss this connection :(Thank you in advance for any help.

Not able to make reservations- error ''prices not available, come back later''

HelloI am gojng interrailing with 3 friends in juli. We want to make reservations for trains in Italia but it's not possible. The interrail app keeps bugging and if we actually see some trains to reserve, it gives an error 'Prices not available' or 'Come back later'. Fine, but I have tried making reservations for over a week now and it is not working. Deutsche Bahn also gives an error, stating 'reservations not available'. Italiarail is also bugging. Would someone please help us. We are leaving in a month and i am getting a bit disappointed and frustrated, unfortunately. I will post our full route later today in a comment, but if someone is willing to help us, we would like to reserve this train (first).The train from Lauterbrunnen (or Interlaken-Ost) leaving around 11:02/04 and arriving at Florence around 17:04. On 12 juli. Thank you so much for helping!
