Hey ! Good morning to you all, 

new to this interail adventure. There's one thing I don't understand. I would like to book a sleeper train between hamburg and stockholm, but when I go to the booking page I am only offered a seat and no sleeper. I looked carefully on the company's website and they say that sleepers are available...can you help me?

On sj.se, you need to click on Traveller 1 > travels with travel card > choose “Interrail/Eurail” from the list of travel cards and enter your mobile pass number.

SBB/CFF doesn’t sell international pass reservations for Interrail online.

When are you travelling and on which reservation site are you trying to book?

Couchettes and sleepers can be booked on sj.se:

Can I make reservations on the operator's websites with an interrail? I must admit I don't understand how interrail works haha, or rather how to make reservations.

Yes, book on the operator’s website whenever possible. The Interrail reservation service charges 2€ reservation fee per booking and is therefore more expensive in most cases.

at no point did I see that I could enter an interail ‘code’. Neither on the sj site nor on the cff.
