No option to book reservations for Croatia trains

Hi Guys, myself and friends are trying to book trains from zagreb to split and back again at the start of september but there isnt an option to reserve seats for every single train for the next few weeks. Is there an issue with the booking system or are all of the trains actually reserved? Thank you

Other Website for Paris-Gare de Lyon - Basel Reservation

Trying to book Paris - Bern, I needed to book Paris-Gare de Lyon - Basel reservation. However, the eurail site didn’t worked at all according to error “being not able to press ‘continue to traveler details’ button”. i’ve tried to find alternative website from  to reserve Paris-Gare de Lyon - Basel, but there was no website that can reserve it.(Only domestic lines were able to book at “travel.b-europe website for national rides in France”) Is there any alternative website that can book international rail Paris to Basel?

Réservation payé

Bonjour, j’ai réalisé une réservation, je suis arrivée au paiement et je n’ai toujours pas de réservation sur mon compte. Ne sachant pas si cela avait fonctionné, j’ai  réalisé une nouvelle réservation (j’ai peur d’avoir payé deux fois)Comment savoir si la réservation est prise en compte? Si j’ai fais la réservation deux fois, est-ce que je peux être remboursée de la deuxième commande? Le site n’est pas très clair,Merci Gabriela

Italy trip Sept. 2023

Hi! My question is about a specific train, which I’m hoping someone will be able to help me with.We’ve arranged an itinerary to and from Italy (using the Interrail website) which includes an overnight stop in Lausanne on the way out. When I first arranged the itinerary, there was a train shown on the website from Lausanne to Milan at 08:18, so I based the 2nd day of our itinerary around that train. Having subsequently checked on the Interrail website, this train is no longer shown, although it does appear on The SBB and Trenitalia websites, as well as the Trainline website. Is there a reason why the Interrail site is not showing it? Also, if the service is running, can we use our passes and if so, how do we go about booking seat reservations? Thanks in anticipation ,Andy

Two tickets for one train

Hi! I want to go from Brussels to Marseille but I only have to one country pass for France. My plan is to buy a separate ticket from Brussels to Lille (north of France) and then use my interrail pass to book the rest of the train to Marseille. This whole journey is on the same train, the TGV. My question is wether or not is is possible to do this. Is this the type of train where you have to check in or something in the station? Would I have to leave the train and then get back on it with the new ticket or just change seats at the most?If someone knows this, please tell me! I am very grateful!!Thanks so much

Can you have one pass be used for multiple groups or "trips"

I am trying to book seat reservations for myself and a group of friends (6 including me) for a journey going from Budapest to Venice (you end up having to go to Wein then back to Venice). This is a part of a larger trip we are taking around Europe.When I book it says this leg of the journey is unavailable please try a different, so I look up this error and find out it may be because there are 6 people in our “trip” I’ve set up.I was wondering if it would be possible to link my pass to two “trips”: one for “trip” of 6 people which is to be used for the majority of journeys taken between countries and another for the one journey where we need to potentially split into two groups in order to be able to book seat reservations. We each have our own passes.

Can't reserve Dimitrovgrad (BG) - Bucuresti.

Hello everyone. I am from Turkey and I was thinking of going to Dimitrovgrad myself (I cannot book to dimitrovgrad from here online as well) and then going to Budapest using Interrail ticket but the train goes through Bucharest on the way. And Dimitrovgrad - Bucuresti seems like cannot be booked online. It says it can only:Book in person at a main station in Europe Reservations only locally at train station in RomaniaSadly, I won’t be around any main station until I am out for my trip and I’m scared the trains will be fully booked ‘till I am there. And opinions on what else I can do?Thanks!

I need a pass cover number

Hi travel friends, I’m planning to go travel to nice in a couple of days, and since i want to reserve the TGV, I need a pass holder number. Even though we contacted interrail quite a few times now, we did not get a response. We also tried calling CSNF, but american express cards were only allowed.  Could someone help up getting our pass cover number ASAP? :) Best, Julia & Tom

How to use the seat reservation and trips

Hi, I’ve recently bought the global pass for 4 days in 1 month and am planning to go from London to Paris in mid May in a group of 2. We have bought the global passes and bought the seat reservations for our dates that we need from London to Paris and Paris to London through the interrail website. We got the Eurostar train and the tickets have been sent to us via email. What im confused about is that these Eurostar tickets are individual tickets on their own and not linked to the pass? So what exactly is the procedure with both the pass and the ticket? Am i supposed to activate the pass before travelling and when I board the train, I simply need to use just the Eurostar ticket Ive gotten? There doesnt seem to be any link between the ticket and pass I’ve bought. Clarification on the travelling procedure would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Would you recommend reservations with first class pass on Weekend days and Interlaken - Zurich?

I’ll put two related questions here. 1) Would you recommend a reservation with a first class pass on Friday July 14 from Interlaken to Zurich and for Saturday July 15 from Zurich - Heidelberg ?Part two - for the Interlaken-Zurich route I see 11AM IC 817 on the 14th with the Eurail site showing $13.44 charge for the two of us to reserve.  The Austrian OBB site is showing no cost, but is allowing me to make a reservation.  Is that correct?  I’ve used that site for previous madatory reservations and paid the fee, but wonder if I’ve done something wrong getting a reservation for no cost?  Below is what It is shows, and I also got to download the PDF ticket.ThanksTomSeat reservation1.Adult,Thomas XXXXNo applicable discount2.Adult,Leita XXXXNo applicable discountInterlaken OstZürich Flughafen1st ClassValid for IC 817 on Fri, 14 July 2023 at 11:00Valid from Friday 14.

Changing a reservation time

Hey everyone. My wife and I are traveling from Copenhagen to Hamburg on August 21st. When we booked the trip and the seat reservations, we didn’t know what time we’d be off of our cruise ship. We now realize that we’ll be off the ship much earlier and would love to take an earlier train direct to our destination. However, when I try to book seats on it, it says that I am unable to and does not give an explanation as to why. I’m thinking that because I already have a trip booked that day, that it won’t let me book seat reservations on another trip. Am I right? And if so, how do I go about removing my current reservation and changing it to the earlier one? At this point, I don’t even care if I get a refund for the first reservation. I just want to have to haul my luggage around Copenhagen for hours! Thanks in advance.

Zürich-Lierna-Innsbrück connections

Hi,We (family of 4) have Interrail global passes and need to travel from Zürich to Lierna (by lake Como, Italy) on June 19th and from Lierna to Innsbrück on June 26th. I know the Italian timetables are slow to get published, but I'm getting anxious because it's only a couple of weeks and I'm still not able to see the timetables except for the high speed trains. I've been checking both Trenitalia and SBB websites. Am I missing something? I would be extremly grateful if someone could help me with finding good routes and timetables for those dates! I'm also a bit conflicted as to wether or not to get reservations (when they are not compulsory). The SBB website is showing extremely high occupancy for some of the connections that I've been looking at for example next Monday (the same day of the week that we will be travelling), although I've learned here that seat reservations are generally unnecessary in Switzerland.

Seat reservation site - can't click ''select existing address'' and thus not proceed

When I want checkout my reservation for the train from Duisburg to Berlin and from Berlin to Prague I cant finalize the order. With the function “Select Existing Adress”, I am not able to press it which makes it not possible to checkout and finalize the order. Is there a other way to book seat reservations?

Change in the itinerary in case of delay or change of plans?

Hi there!I would like to ask whether the train conncetion of a given day is subject to change. For example, I see in the app that I’d need to add a certain train conncection of a given day/time to my Globalpass. However, can I still travel that same day but in another time in case of delay due to train connection or my plan changes?Thanks a lot!
