Bari to Athens

Hi,I am planning a trip and wanted to end in Athens. I was thinking of going by ferry from Bari Italy to Patras then from Patras to Athens. I was wondering if there is a train from Patras to Athens, if not what would be the best option for someone with an interrail pass. And where can I see the timetable and reserver the ferry from Bari to Patras and do you know if it is included in the interrail pass. Any help would be much appreciated.

Train ICN 797 from Milano Porta Garibaldi to Roma Tiburtina

When I wanted to add this train to my trip I was shocked that this train is not in mobile RailPlanner.It always says I have to go to Milano Central, but this train goes exactly from Porta Garibaldi to Roma.If I type trip from P. Garibaldi to Roma (on 27.7.2022) there is no train 797.Am I just too fast?Thanks

Adding the trip on a day, like 10-30 minutes before entering the train

HiI am new in here and will be using Interrail Global Pass the coming weekend in Germany. Is that possible with Adding the trip to the mobile pass app on a travelling day, like 10-30 minutes before entering the train ?Will arrive with my 11y old son(we both have separate passes) by plane on 13/5/2022 from Copenhagen to Køln/Bonn airport about 10,55 ( need also to pick up the checked in bag ).  Consider to take next 1 of the below train connections to Stuttgart :1 . 11,24 -  better option with less transfers and would prefer that one if could manage with the bag pick up from the airport2. 11,56 – more transfers and shorter time for transfer in FrankfurtSo I am not sure, if I can just book 1 of the above tickets, just standing next to the train, like 5 minutes before the departure ?  or  1 of these trips needs to be booked by us a day before 12/5 in the app ?3 .By the way -- Interrail Global Pass , can it be used for traveling by S Bahn ,U Bahn or bus in Stuttgart  ?Thanks in advance for

No day trains to Sicily in August?

Hi,I’ve noticed there are currently no day trains to Sicily listed for August (neither in the interrail planner nor on the Trenitalia booking site). Is this an issue of being too early for making a reservation for these?Thanks.

Price

Hi there I'm a bit confused, so there's one price for a pass and then an extra price on top of that if the train requires seat reservations, right? But when I do my search on which stops I would like to make around Europe (Paris-Cannes-Nice-Genoa-Venice-Rimini), it ends up being cheaper to just buy the tickets, rather than having a pass? I'm confused... I don't wanna pay €30+ something just to have to pay for a reserved seat. Should I just buy tickets as I go?

Trips showing up on website but not on app

Hi,I seem to have a pretty big problem with my Eurail. Basically, most of the train journeys I’m interested in taking don’t show up when I search for them on the app. They do, however, show up on the website, but it appears I can’t add them to my pass from the website. So, to book a seat for my upcoming first journey of the travel (from Madrid to Ronda, on the 10th of May, at 3:05PM), I added the trip manually to my pass on the app, copying the information from what I saw on the website and triple-checking that it was accurate. I then went in person to the train station (Atocha, in Madrid), as instructed by Eurail, to try to book the ticket, but was told there was no way for them to book it because my manually-entered journey had no QR code. (After I add the journey to my pass by toggling the little QR code icon, I go to “My Pass” and click on “Show ticket”, but it says “No ticket for this date”.) Does anyone know why that’s happening and what I could do to fix it? I tried to ask Eurai

Reservations page doesn't work - need to book London to Paris

Hi all, I’m really struggling with the broken Interrail website and my holiday is getting nearer..I’ve tried making seat reservations with 3 browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) on 3 different devices (two laptops one iphone) and the page just won’t work. Sometimes the page doesn’t open and shows an error message. Other times when it lets me access the page and search for the train, it says I have to “create trip”, after which I have to “add travelers”. After I add travelers, it shows 0 trips and says I have to “create trip”. The loop is never ending. When I look at my trips under my account, it adds any new trip I create into “past trips”, not “upcoming trips”. The trip I’m trying to book is London to Paris (Eurostar) with a mobile pass. I’m currently in the UK. Any alternative ways to book?

regarding reservations

Hey,I am going to be starting my travel from Bologna/Italy. I was wondering if booking reservations for each train is a must. For example, If I were to go to Florence from Bologna which takes 25mins, would it be okay not to book a reservation? Or do I need to buy 1 for sure? Also, when I go on interrail’s app, it says for most of the train tickets, I must book a reservation. How can I know when I need to book a reservation? Can I just not get 1 for short trips?

problèmes de reservation de sieges!!

Bonjour! Avec mon copain nous avons gagné le concours interrail pour voyager gratuitement à bord de trains pendant 1an.Nous avons donc prévu de partir du 25 mai au 29 mai en amoureux( voyage prévu depuis longtemps).Nous avons réservé nos billets de train hier et nous avons vu qu’il fallait réserver des sièges. Mais! En voulant réservant nos sièges ce soir nous venons de voir que rien n’était disponible et qu’on ne pouvait plus avoir de siège alors que nous avons réservé nos billets? Nous ne comprenons pas et sommes désespérés car nous avons déjà réservé notre hôtel et appartement et il n’est pas possible de se faire rembourser :(( Pouvez-nous aider ? Pouvez-vous nous trouver des sièges?

Is Belfast-Londonderry/Derry still included in Interrail?

Hi everyone,the route Belfast-Londonderry/Derry is included on Trains in Ireland | Ireland by Rail | Interrail.eu and is also displayed on the map, but when I try to find Londonderry/Derry via the app or with the web search, I can’t find the station or any other station on this route. Does anybody know more? Is the route still included and it’s just a bug or is there something I have missed?

Can you make reservations before activating your pass for travel?

After buying your mobile Pass, I can see that you have up to 11 months to activate it to start travelling, however, can you make reservations before then?  I want to make reservations now for a month’s trip in August.  Is that possible?

Is the interrailpass valid? Norway - Sweden

I am planning a trip to Sweden and Norway. I did not find any trains on the interrailwebsite to cross the border. But on local websites there is a route with two trains and a bus connecting Bodo and Kiruna. Is the interrailpass valid on these trains? The first train from SJ NORD will take me from Bodo to Fauske station.The second train from VY NATTAG will take me from Narvik to Kiruna.Can I use the interrailpass or should i buy a separate ticket for these trains?

outbound and inbound pass

Hi there, I’m looking to book a one month interrail pass and am wondering if my journey from Scotland (my home country) to London and then onto the Eurostar to France would count as one outbound ticket and be included with the pass or if I would have to pay for a separate ticket to get from Scotland to London first ?

Sleeper train Paris Toulouse

I want to book a sleeper reservation for Paris-Tolouse on May 28 and potentially back Tolouse-Paris June 7. I don't see reservations open for this train on the interrail reservation service. There's only a suggestion for a bus on the 28th. The option to buy a full price ticket on the official SCNF website doesn't show up as well. Does it mean it's just booked up on these days already?
