Seat Reservation Lyon-Barcelona

Hello, I have a question about seat reservations in France. I want to travel from Lyon Part Dieu to Barcelona Sants on the 30th august. (RSC 9734). I can book the reservation via Interrail, but since it is a Paper ticket, it will be delivered on the 29th august to Austria (where I live), so this is the day when I plan to start the journey. Is there a way to buy the seat reservation now and pick up the ticket at the railway station in Lyon? Or do you have a recommendation? I only have one hour waiting time in Lyon, is it possible to buy the ticket there? Or are chances high that the time is not sufficient to buy the seat reservations locally or even worse, that tickets are not availabe any more?If anyone could help me, this would be really great, I am really frustrated :D! Thanks in advance!

Anyone who knows what the chances are that trains are fully booked when I arrive in Spain and want to make a reservation?

I know there are 2 options for making a - compulsory! - reservation for a domestic medium or long-distance train in Spain. As I'll be in Spain a little over 6 weeks from now, both options (in person or calling which only gets me a 72-hour reservation) aren't possible now.Anyone who knows what the chances are that trains are fully booked when I arrive in Spain and want to make a reservation? I'm talking about Bilbao-Salamanca with a change in Miranda de Ebro, as shown on Renfe's own website (little less than 6 hours, while the DB app shows one of 8+ hours and the Railplanner app tells me it takes more than a day).Renfe - Train list

Booking seat reservation; What is the €9 for that you pay next to the seat price?

Hello!On the trip from Prague to Budapest it is mandatory to reserve a seat. When I go to make the reservation, it appears that it is mandatory to pay these €9 apart from the €6 for the seat. Can someone explain to me why these €9 are mandatory and what they are for? Once I pay and reserve the seat, how will I receive the reservation ticket and the seat number?Thank you!

Seat Reservation with Mobile Pass

Hello fellow travellers,I´m planing a few trips in the new future and a few trips require a seat reservation. Now to my problem:I bought a mobile pass and I´m using the Interrail Planner app. If i now want to book reservations i have to enter the country I want to travel within and make a reservation. So far so good. Right under the search bar the app asks me to choose wether I have a mobile or paper pass when I choos the mobile pass option and enter a country like the netherlands i get a few options for the major railway companies like DB or DSB but not for the official Interrail website. If I then enter France I only get the option to do the reservation in person but if I choose the paper Pass option I can use the online booking function with Interrail. Can I ignore this differntiation between paper and mobile pass and just book all reservations via the Interrail website or do I have to book all the seats in person? Thanks in advance!

Ljubljana - Split, only let's me book sleeping compartment for Ljubljana - Zagreb

Hello!I am traveling from Ljubljana - Split 16.08.2022.I am going to book a bunk for me to sleep in but as i understand it only let’s me book the sleeping compartment between Ljubljana - Zagreb (1Hours something that takes), where i will be switching trains.As you can see it says the sleeping compartment is only between Ljubljana and Zagreb, which is not worth 160€, i wonder if the next train i will be taking from Zagreb - Split have any bed compartments and in that case does the “Bed reservation” from Ljubljana - Zagreb train cover this train also?As you can see here it only says “Ticket not available” So my question is does this train have beds and is that covered from the previous train or do i have to book this train somehow or what?Thank you!

Three last trains of my trip impossible to book since two months

Hello community,I really need your help, I’ve been patient but it’s been several months that I’m trying to book trains via https://www.interrail.eu/.For the last three trains, the error message has changed recently and is now :“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.”Those trains are : - Zurich to Prague : 2022/23/07 (21h40 - 10h57+1 day)- Bratislava to Budapest : 2022/29/07 (17h05 - 19h34)- Budapest to Balatonszentgyoergy : 2022/08/02 (16h42 - 18h57)I’ve tried on companies website, calling train services but I’ve achieved nothing yet and I’m afraid everything’s gonna be full soon.That’s my honeymoon, I’ll be so sad to canceled it.Can you guide me throught this ?

Cannot book - ''reservation unavailable''

Good evening and thank u all in advance. It’s the first time I’m doing interrail and I’ve found out some problems that are driving me crazy. In some trains that DO need reservation, I cannot do it because it says “reservation unavailable”. I am writing down the concrete trains and dates so it is easier for you to help me. 30/07/2022. Zagreb Glavni Kol 18:40 → Ljubljana 20:5431/07/2022. Ljubljana 21:10 → Villach HBF 22:49 I have already seen the same problem with other trains in which the reservation is not mandatory, so I think it’s not such a big deal in those cases. But I am really worried about the trains I’ve written down before. I hope you guys could help me.Thank u so much!!!!!!

Won't let me book reservations when it says I need to? Badajoz - Madrid Puerta de Atocha

Hello! I’ve been having a hard time using both the Eurail website, as well as their mobile app. I am finally seeing trains schedules for my travel days this month, and many of my needed trains say “seat reservations required.” However, when I go to reserve seats, it won’t let me. It says I cannot book reservations online, and I can do it alternatively in person. I am worried about trains being fully booked, and being unable to travel to my destinations on time. Does anyone know if it’s risky to book the trains that say “seat reservations required” day of, and in person? Or, does anyone know a work around for how to actually book these seats in advance? Any advice is much appreciated, thank you!

Digital pass - pass cover number / travel in spain

Hi everyone - I have a digital pass and can see that I will probably be asked to provide a pass cover number when booking at local train stations. Has anyone booked trains with their digital pass in Spain recently ? Have there been any difficulties with the digital pass? Also I’ve asked Interrail customer service for mine - has anyone had any success contacting?
