How to book French high speed trains

I want to go from Girona, Spain to Zurich. I looked it up on my interrail app and it said seat reservations from €12, and the only option was to book at the station. However, now we’re here, the people at the station told us you can only buy tickets online and those tickets are €129. I obviously don’t wanna spend so much money. Does anyone know how i can get out of spain without spending so much money?

Amsterdam to Brussels by IC

We planned to travel from Amsterdam to Brussels by IC on Sunday 03/09/23 with a brief stopover at Anrtwerp.1. We can stop at Brussel Central Station. Is that right?We can stop at any station along the journey as long as the journey is completed within a day? Eurail Rail Planner shows ‘supplement needed’ but Seat 61 mentioned that that is not the case. I understand that no other fees(reservation, supplementary or any others) for the journey. Just get on the train and go. Is that right?               So I just add the journey on Rail Planner and ignore everything else. Is that right?Is there any station on the way for a stopover at Atomium?

reservation change

Hi I have a train booked and a seat reservation paid already leaving Paris Disney to Lille Europe for a 9:01 train how would I go about changing the reservation to an earlier 7:50am train. I have already added the journey to my trip in the Eurail app. this journey isn’t until Thursday 3rd of August. I am just a little worried about the connection time from Lille Europe to London. Arrive Lille Europe at 10:17am departure at 11:35am might be tight clearing boarder inspection.

I'm looking for reservations in France for august. Deutsche Bahn said, there are no reservations left anymore.I don't have a pass yet because maybe I won't go by interrail. Therefore I can't check, if there are reservations left.I thougt that maybe there are reservations left on the interrail page. Does somebody know if there is a interrail reservation budget?

Connection from amsterdam to Brussel

Eurail Pass user. Departing from Amsterdam by IC. 1. Amsterdam -> Brussels train 2. Brussels. → Paris. The Brussels-Paris train has been booked, but the Amsterdam-Brussels trains are by IC, so I didn't reserve a seat separately. It didn't say "Seat reservation required" but it said "Supplement required". But now I've searched for the train service again, and this section doesn't come out. So I'm wondering if I have to get a train ticket again. The train leaves IC9232 at 11:28.

Have a Eurostar arriving at 18.02 in Bruxelles Midi, and the NJ425 was due to leave at 19.32. OBB have just told us it has been brought forward to 18.26...Can anyone tell me what platform at Bruxelles Midi the Nightjet leaves from? And what the transfer time might be? 24 minutes might be pushing it...I can exchange Eurostar ticket, but only available is 9am, and with a fee… Thanks

Cant find train ticket online

I have a sleeper train booked from ljubliana to budapest on 26/08/23 leaving at 00:30. I will be in zagreb on the 25 and was planning on getting the 19:30 from zagreb to ljubliana to arrive at 21:47. However I can seem to reserve a ticket, I can’t tell if it is fully booked or not as OBB says its unavailable and so does eurail. I tried both croatian and slovenian rail companies website but I couldn’t find the journey.  Will I be able to book this at the station or is it fully booked and I have to find an alternate route?

Nighttrain wien zurich

Hello, I was wondering about a night train. Basically, I'd like to take the night train from Vienna to Zurich.At first, with the interrail app, it said that you didn't have to reserve a seat for this night train, so I didn't. But I realized a short while ago that the train was now fully booked and that you couldn't reserve any more.What's more, on a page of the interrail website, it said that you had to book for most of the trains. So I wanted to know if I could still get on board knowing that we could no longer book but that on the app it said we didn't have to book? Thanks for your help !

Hi, I have been booking UK trains with Eurail pass on GWR website

It is my first time using online bookings, so I’m not sure about things, so I’ve got questions  I’ve reserved seats only, and it doesn’t give me any QR or anything unlike my previous bookings like Eurostar or SNCF. Do I just use the Eurail pass QR when I get on the train, and when they require I show the Eurail pass and the seat reservation code? I’ve made bookings with both “anytime single” and “advance single”. Is it ok, ie, does the pass work with both booking types? I cannot modify the seats on the train time or date, or even the seats. Am I not supposed to be able to change or cancel the reservation at all? What happens if I reserve a seat and actually don’t get on the train, like with unexpected delays prior to the ride? Will there be any penalities? Thank you very much.

Nachtzug?! ohne sitzplatzreservierung?

Moin,ich hatte meine Rückfahrt am Samstag geplant gehabt und hatte schon eine gute Route. Ich wollte dann etwas in der DB anschauen und es fiel mir auf das dieser IC 60470 ein Nachtzug ist. Ich hatte die Route extra genommen gehabt weil ich keine Sitzplatzreservierungen unternehmen möchte. Ist das notwendig für den NJ jetzt noch eine Reservierung zu buchen oder kann ich auch ohne einsteigen? (Ich kann zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt keine mehr buchen)  LG

Seat Reservation & delay /cancellation

Hi there,im planning a longer Trip on a specific day with multiple train changes. I’ll need to get reservations for some trains. So far, so good.What could I do, if i miss one of the trains that require a reservation due to delay of a previous train?I would have to take the next train, but i wont have a reservations for that one and probably it will be full already. Do I have to switch to trains that don’t require reservations in that case?Thanks for advices.
