I want to see the actual seats I am reserving - Can I do this?

I have eurail passes for my wife and I and want to make seat reservations for several trips while in Italy.  Is there any way to see the actual seats you want to reserve, or do they just get randomly chosen for you?  We've traveled extensively in Germany and we have always been able to choose the actual seats we want.  Thanks for any help, Dennis

Italy Nightjet; construction work. Any alternative?

Hi ! I just ran into this problem. I really wanted to take the nightjet from Munchen to Florence. But around that time there is construction work….Does anyone knows other routes that wil get me to Florence? Daytime trains are also fine..?  If i look on the planner app it says that there is a train from Munchen to Travisio and then Travisio to Florence. But the traincode also says NJ which stands for NightJet so that got me quite confused.. Can some one help me? Thanks!

Reservation for private compartement for Intercité de Nuit (SNCF)

Hello, we just bought interrail passes for France and wanted to make a reservation through the Interrail reservation system for a night train to Toulouse. On the SNCF Connect website, there was the possibility to choose having a private compartment for an extra 45€, which is not available on the Interrail reservation site. So is it impossible to book a private compartment as an upgrade with an interrail pass?

I can't make reservations Spain

Hi community. I am really concerned because I bought an eurail one country ticket for Spain and I don't know how to make reservations with Renfe from Costa Rica because I want to book all trains before I arrived to Spain. Please can anyone help me? I don't know if this is only possible being in Spain. If that is in that way this pass is not worth it for my trip

HEADS-UP! All Nightjets to/from Italy (except to Venice) aren't running in July of 2022

Yeah, what I said in the title really…These are among the most popular night train routes on the continent, and not only is July peak season on a normal year, but 2022 will also be the first proper chance many people have had to travel abroad since the pandemic began. Accordingly there will be a lot of travellers planning to use these trains in July, and this track work couldn’t really have come at a worse time. :-(I’m aware that quite a few of the more expert users of this forum will already have known about this, but hopefully anyone who didn’t - and was counting on these trains for their itinerary - will see this reminder and adjust their plans accordingly.One possible alternative option for those who had been planning to come from Munich is the Trenitalia sleeper from Bozen, but this is on weekends only and only works for those travelling to Rome.

Train Connections Greece

Hi there!I've got a question about the train connection between Athens and Patras. Me and my boyfriend would like to travel around greece with interrail. We would like to take the train from Athens to Patras, and then take the boat from Patras to Italy. I think the Interrail site is a bit unclear about this. Is there a good connection from Athens to Patras by train or do we have to figure it out another way?

Trains to/from Regensburg, Germany

I am traveling in July 2022 from Prague (Czech Republic) to Regensburg (Germany) and then from Regensburg to Strasbourg (France).While I am able to find trains for these trips (EC356 for the first trip and ICE228 / IC2068 / TGV9580 for the second one), Regensburg is NOT a “valid” option in the “PLAN YOUR TRIP” web page.I just wanted to know that the two train trips above are eligible if I purchase a Eurail Pass.

I added a train in Italy manually as it was not listed, but I know it requires a reservation. Is it possible to reserve ahead for manual trips?

How does this work for trains that require reservations? I’m trying to reserve a train in Italy and the trip is not listed in Eurail. I added it manually as indicated in the post, but I know that this train is a high-speed train that will need a reservation. Is it possible to reserve ahead for manual trips?

Reserving sleeper cars: Is there anyway to ensure that we are booked in a sleeper car on these overnight trains, and not just in regular seats?

I have purchased global rail passes for myself and my family for a Europe trip In July/august. I have run into a question about reservations. There are several nights that we would like to use the sleeper trains. I can see that we can reserve these through yours website service. I also know from making my other reservation that seats will be selected for me, but Is there anyway to ensure that we are booked in a sleeper car on these overnight trains, and not just in regular seats. It appears that both seating types are available on this train.

Buy seat reservation in Madrid - does it work?

Hey guys!I have to take the train from Madrid to Leon and then from Leon to Vigo on Sunday (27/03). Both connections require a reservation. The app says I can only book the tickets on the spot at a counter. Does anyone have experience with this? Does it work well? Or is there any option to buy the tickets online after all? Thank you!!

Brussels-Köln with One Country pass ''your pass is not valid for this connection''

I have bought a German Rail Pass for me and my boyfriend, because I found it is also valid for ICE-trains between Brussels and Köln (source: it says in the conditions “"The German Rail Pass is valid on the following direct routes: Cologne (Köln Hbf) - Brussels (Bruxelles-Midi) Cologne (Köln Hbf) - Liège (Liège-Guillemins)" and I found also confirmation here  German Interrail pass : Liège (Belgium) to Cologne (Köln, Germany) | Community (eurail.com) ).But now I tried to reserve us seats for this train, and it says “Your Pass or the Pass of a travel companion is not valid for this connection.”How can this be solved? Thank you!
