Hi!
I’m planning a trip for end of March and I want to buy a 7-day eurail pass.
When I look for some trains (in this case Brussels-Paris) on the page “Book reservations” of the eruail website a lot of trains are indicated as “Some details unavailable” so I can’t book them and I can’t know the extra price for the booking of the seats.
How can I be sure that I will be able to book these trains after having purchased the eurail pass?
And second question, I will also use Fjord lines in Danemark. Do you know how I can have information about the potential extra cost of seat booking on these ferries? I cannot find a tool to simulate these purchases.
Thank you in advance for your precious help!

"Some details unavailable" + Ferry extra cost

There's definitely something wrong here. I don't get any price (it should be 25 + 2 EUR booking fee):
But Belgian railways say there are still trains with availability:
Although it looks like the 9:16 train doesn't have any pass holder seats left.
You can book via the Belgian railways website (there's an extra fee of 4 EUR per order and you need a pass cover number. If you have a mobile pass, request one here).
Alternatively, you can also call Belgian railways. In that case, there are no extra booking fees but you are paying for the phone call. You don't need a pass cover number and the reservation is sent via e-mail. They also do French TGVs.
You can of course also book at a French ticket office. There's no booking fee there either.
