Error message when reserving ''please try to find alternative connection''

Every time I try and reserve seats I get the message “please try to find an alternative connection. The unavailable leg will be removed from your cart”. This has happened with every reservation I have attempted, I really need help in figuring out what the issue is. Thank you

Can I make reservations via Oebb with Italy one country pass?

Hi!I’ve seen this question asked but can’t find a definitive response anywhere. Can I still make reservations via oebb if I only have a one country pass for Italy?When selecting discount, it only gives a Interrail / Eurail - Globalpass option.

Trouble with booking reservations in the Eurail app - ''legs are not available''

I’ve purchased a EuroPass and am trying to make 1st class reservations in the app to a number of cities. Some of them say they are not available. When I try to check out, I get an error that states that some of the legs are not available and to find another train or remove them. I removed those destinations from my cart and try to check out again. I get another error that states one of my trips can’t be booked, but it doesn’t tell me which one. Don’t know what else to do.

In another post I read that Trenitalia don´t make reservations anymore, but where to do it so, I don’t want to book it in the eurail website for the extra fee.Thanks for your time.

Reservation starting location

Hi:) i am really new to interrail and really excited about it. However i have a small problem.so i booked a reservation a few weeks ago from Amsterdam Centraal to London. However, my plans have slightly changed and at the date of this journey I am in Bruxelles instead of in Amsterdam. Is it possible to board the train (where I have a seat reservation from Amsterdam to London) also from Bruxelles (which is two stops after Amsterdam)? Or will the reservation not be valid if you do not board the train at the station of your reservation?thankss if anyone has the answer to my question:) have a lovely evening🥰

Seat reservations not required, but prices are unavailable. Can I get on or is it full? Croatia night train

Hi! So we were looking to get a night train from Zagreb to Split, it says :“You're ready to board. You can buy a seat reservation if you like but it's not required.”But then underneath it it says: “Prices unavailable. No 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.” Does this mean we could turn up on the day and get on without a reservation or does it mean it is fully sold out? Any help would be appreciatedThanks!

I tried making some reservations today, checked all the info, accepted conditions, but I cannot activate the 'to pay' button. It won’t turn the yellow bright color. It won’t let me go further than the «proceed to checkout» mark

No Seat Reservations Paris- Barcelona - should I risk booking in person on the day?

Hello! I am trying to make reservations from Paris to Barcelona on Tuesday 7th June (eventually ending up in Lisbon) and we’re now struggling to find ways to make seat reservations. Is it very risky to book in person at the station on the same day or the day before or have people generally had much more success with this rather than reserving online? It’s my first time using a Global Pass and we thought this would be smooth and easy to use when we were looking this last couple of months… but now we’ve bought the pass it feels a lot more stressful and unavailable than we initially thought! 🥺

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.

Delivery time seat reservation paper ticket

Hello, I am in Romania and I want to book the train for Tuesday June 7 which goes from Brasov to Budapest. the ticket is a paper ticket, On your site you indicate a maximum of six working days so I am on time. But when I want to book this ticket on the booking tool, I am told that I am too late because the date of arrival of the ticket by post is June 19. Should I trust this arrival date of June 19 or the 6 working days indicated in your FAQ on the site? Thank you for your reply Gaspard Noisy
