Hello,

I am taking the train tomorrow from Pescara to Germany and I still need to reserve a seat from Pescara to Milano or from Pescara to Bologna (the latter would be the second option as reservations from Bologna to Milano are bookable). I tried it over the page of interrail and on the one of the italian train company but it is not possibe to select the reservation and it says I should try another website, I do not know which one though. The directions on the interrail page are not helpful at all regarding this … 

Can someone please help me? I would be really thankful <3

If you're currently in Italy, just go to the Trenitalia ticket office.


I thought that too, but I won’t be able to get there as I am in a small village … The aerliest I could go there would be around one or two hours before departure and I am scared that this is way too late … :(

You can check how many places there are left on trenitalia.com: just act like you want to book a normal ticket and want to choose your seat. In the graphical overview of the different coaches, you can see how many seats there are left.

Alternatively, maybe you can book via the call centre?

Thanks for the reply 🙂 I cecked and it does not look good unfortunately … The call centre would maybe be the quickest to help me of course but it costs around 1€ per minute so that is not really an option … :/


You can also try the Interrail app (it has an extra fee of 2 EUR per seat, just like the Interrail website) or https://app.italiarail.com/itinerary (I believe Italiarail's fee is 3.50 per order but it currently shows me prices in USD whereas I used to see EUR. You will also need a pass cover number for Italiarail.
