Reservation help - Spain to Croatia

Hi!I would love some feedback. I am considering buying a interrail ticket for the more expensive parts of my trip as especially the ones in the beginning have had a premium price on the traintickets. I believe all tickets can be booked on the interrail site, but the reservations is done here and there? Is it possible to check if there is any interrail tickets left without buying the pass?I think I need to book the Barcelona - Nimes seat reservation as soon as possible if its not already sold out right?When it comes to bookings in france on the site SNCF, how do I know if I buy only the seat reservation and not the tickets also but only the seat? I’m considering getting the 1st class ticket as there might be more potential spots on the trains? My itenary is as follows :Spain flying to Barcelona (start)Francetrain to Nimes,train to Nice,Italytrain to Milan,train to Venice,Sloveniatrain to Ljubljana,Croatiatrain to Zagreb,bus to Split - (looks that buses are the best option here? 6h train

can‘t find the track for trains in italy

Hi everyone, I will be travelling in Italy in December and now I am looking for the specification for the tracks of a the trains of my connections. I can‘t find any information on the tracks, not in the railplanner app, in the trainitalia app or in the DB app. I can‘t find them either for todays connections. Example: IC730 from Palermo to Messina, 04/12/2023, 10:15 h. Can someone help me finding some information online about the track of the trains in italy? I think it will be quite helpful to know the right track in advance if you have a short time to change trains. Thank you!

Reserved seats through Eurail but Journey Changed

Hi! I reserved seats for a train ride from Barcelona Sants to Lyon Part Dieu for March 31. I booked the seat reservation through eurail, and also received the seat reservation confirmation already. However, upon checking in the app - seems like the journey changed. My original seat reservation was for BARCELONA SANTS to MONTPELLIER SAINT-ROCH, then MONTPELLIER SAINT-ROCH to LYON PART DIEU. The journey now for the exact same time departure time from Barcelona became BARCELONA SANTS To NARBONNE, then NARBONNE to LYON PART DIEU.Has anyone ever experienced something like this? What happens to my paid seat reservation? Will it still be valid for the updated journey? Appreciate any feedback for anyone who experienced a similar issue. Thank you!

Reservation for Kopenhaven-Stockholm needed?

Hello :)I know that I need a reservation for most of the nighttrains. Do I need a seat reservation on day , too? And how do I regonize? For example I want to drive from Stockholm to Kopenhaven. Is it possible to get in every train without reservation and in case of no free seat sit on the floor? Actually I bought the interrail pass to move freely. Didnt know you have to reservate a lot of trains month before 😅 Thanks you guys :))

Is it valid on EMR trains in UK (leg 3) since the 3 legs will be within a single day of travel? I searched and couldnt get a definitive answer. If pass is valid on leg 3 of trip to Market Harborough, would you recommend a reservation for that one hour ride since our Eu

Am I doing the search correctly, and when should I expect schedules to be published?

I have just tried to see if I can figure out how to book a trip and I’m after a little guidance as to whether this is the easiest way, and what i am doing wrong. First I went to Google Maps and plotted from my hotel address to my next hotel address, selecting the train option. Google tells me how far to walk to the nearest train station, which station that is, the path by train and the distance I need to walk at the other end.Then I went to bahn.de and punched in the two train locations that Google gave me, entered other criteria and did a search. In my case, it didn’t come up with any results, likely because the timetables aren’t released yet (December 10 I believe). After a little experimenting I got some results, however I don’t think Rome to Florence is 21 hours given I selected Show fastest connection. Clearly I am doing something wrong. Any suggestions please

Nightjet OBB from Freiburg to Duisburg for German citizens

Hiwe would like to travel to Denmark from Freiburg, Germany, to get a ferry there to Norway.It is possible to take the ÖBB Nightjet from Freiburg to Duisburg (starts 00:05) and then from Duisburg on another trains to cross the border as an outbound Traveldays? Someone said, this is not possible for people living in Germany, because the Nightjet is an Austrian train and does not cross the border to Denmark. It only would be possible to take the Night IC (which is actually the same train, but the German part with no cabins) to do this part as an outbound travel. Is this correct?And, in case it is incorrect, where could I buy the tickets for the NJ then, online?Gerne auch Antworten in Deutsch.Viele Grüße aus Freiburg.

Seat reservations but no travel day?

Hi folks! I’m traveling from Alba to Zürich in September and have booked my seat reservations on the train, however I’m unable to book the same time for my travel day since the time does not exist on the rail planner app! Im supposed to take the route that starts 06:07 (earlybird I know), but the earliest journey the app shows me is 07:07. Also the rail planner app shows different trains than the reservations I’m offered. What would you guys do? Any advice?

Trouble making a reservation for friend

Hi there!I have a question about making a reservation for the train. My boyfriend and I booked our tickets together, but I am already traveling and we would meet each other half way. But since we booked together I am the only one who can make a reservation.So, if I make the reservation for him, will the reservation show up on his digital Pass? Or do I have to be with him since I booked it? Or is there another way for him to make the reservation instead?Thanks for the help :)

Train that doesnt require reservation

I will be taking some trains that do not require a reservation. I have a mobile pass and have added the trips I will be taking to my pass. I can see the QR code on the app, is there any thing else I have to do like print a physical ticket? Or do I just board the train with just my eurail pass with the trip active? Because I don’t have a PNR code since the trips are only on my eurail app. Thanks.
