Hola, próximamente voy a realizar un viaje con interrail y tengo varias dudas. Por ejemplo al hacer el viaje entre Praga y Budapest tengo varios transbordos de tiempo muy corto, unos 10 minutos entre cada tren ¿si se atrasa y pierdo el otro tren puedo usar mi pase para coger el siguiente si no lo he programado?

Hello, 10 minutes might not be enough time for a transfer especially on a longer journey. Generally speaking, we advise to allow yourself at least 20-30 minutes for a transfer, to allow time for minor delays as well as to find the platform of the next departing train.If you do miss a connecting train, you can simply update the journey details in the app and catch the next one. If you missed a connection that required reservations, you can ask at the station's ticketing office if they can exchange the reservation for you. If that's not possible, please purchase a new reservation and get in touch with our customer service team to request a refund on the old reservation.

You WILL Miss some-notably in DE=Alamania/germany. You cannot rely on such an overlong trip to go that smooth. Plus that there must be some sectors in FRance that you need to REServe TGV. There are set rules by EU that railways are obliged to help you out in such situations-just ask rian, but thats theory and practice might be quite different. In any case-assuming its the final trip to get home-try to not go over the very last validity-23.59 last day-as this will bring big problems-even though thsi should also in theory be rectified by the railways.

It would be more helpful if you post your planned trains, so we can advise if it's realistic.

Please ask questions in the community and not via a private message. That's the quickest way to get a response. I don't work for Eurail/Interrail.
