Travelling by train

I booked a seat on the NJ 468 for the night train from Vienna to Paris. I hold a Global Pass second class pass and was not guided to the seat type at the time of booking and paid an additional $23.44 to reserve a seat. Are these seats sleep cabins? Or is it another type of seat?

Hello, we were recently on a train that was delayed 2 hours.original route was marseille → Montpellier → Barcelona, with all trains being run by SNCFDue to the delay, we were instructed to get off af Narbonne, where we were to wait for the next train to Barcelona.the next train that came was a Renfe train, where the inspector didn’t let us on because we have SNCF tickets.We are now waiting an extra 2 hours for the next SNCF train to take us to Barcelona, where we will arrive 5 hours later than scheduled.Would it have been possible to get our tickets transferred to Renfe tickets? Or do they not transfer across companies. We just decided to wait and now feel that we have missed out on arriving slightly closer to our scheduled time.  thanks for any help 

Hi, I’ll be travelling in Switzerland in January 2024 and am wondering whether I will get the 25% discount for having a Eurail pass on the Jungfrau network if I buy their 3 day pass. I’m planning to go all over the region on the various trains and cable cars. I’ll have the Eurail Global Pass. 

Hello everyone, I am planning to have my first Europe trip next month using the Global Pass. One of my journey is from Chur to Kilchberg Ch in Switzerland. There is supposed to be a transfer in Thalwil. However, the second leg from Thalwil to Kilchberg last only for 4 minutes.In case the Ticket Inspector has not been checking my ticket during this journey, what should I do then? Is it ok if I left the ticket unchecked?Many thanks in advance... 

I am an American student studying in Luxembourg for about 5 months in the Spring of 2024. I hope to be able to live in a city other than Luxembourg as I only need to be there 2 days out of the week for class. Paris would be amazing as it allows me to be so close to a major terminal. I know nothing about the train system and how it works in Europe. If I live in a city, for this example let’s say Paris, would it be possible to commute there two days of the week with a Eurail unlimited pass? Do they run often enough for me to catch one twice a day for these two days? Am I going to drown myself in reservation fees or is it similar to NYC subway’s “swipe your card, hop on, and then hop off” system? I also will be extensively travelling with the pass on days I do not have class, using it atleast twice per day, possibly more depending on where I end up. How easy is it to hop on a train and end up in a different country / how much in advance do I have to reserve them (show up to the station

Boa noite o meu filho pagou o pass para Japão no dia 4 ainda não foi entregue...qual problema com a reserva...NIF 242365647 entrega em Tóquio 

Hello Friends, I’m travelling solo this November and Paris will be my base. I’ll visit Paris for a few days and then return to the same city at the end to catch my flight back home. Now, I’m planning to travel to Interlaken to visit Jungfraujoch and the nearby villages and then proceed to Rome for another few days. I have a total of 3 weeks and I believe visiting the aforementioned three places would be easy [earlier I thought I could go to some other city too, like Munich/Barcelona for example].  I understand the below is possible but does this plan sound good, or could you please suggest a better idea as this is my first time visiting Europe?Take train from Paris to Basel [using 4 days global flxe Eurail pass] and then take local train to Interlaken. Purchase single day pass to Jungfraujoch [expensive but I’m not buying Swisspass as I’m just spending 4 days in the country with not many visits to mountain tops or intercity travel].

Hello. We will commence our journey in a few days and are trying to print out our necessary documents, including seat reservations.  This is the first time I’ve used the Eurail FlexiPass, so please bear with me if I ask some rather obvious questions. After several rounds of email, I was able to determine that in order to board a train on a travel day, we need to generate a QR code for that day, and to present our seat reservations (if seat reservations are required).  What customer support did not answer was how early we should generate the QR code?  We want to do a bit of a dry run before commencing our journey.  We already have an active travel day, when we are travelling on the Eurostar.  We already have both e-tickets and seat reservations for this leg of the trip, but we do not have e-tickets for the leg after the Eurostar.  If the Eurostar travel day is over a week away, is it too early to try a dry run fo generate the QR code for the leg without an

Hello. I live in Germany and would like to take the Nightjet from Innsbruck to Amsterdam. He obviously crosses Germany. But I only drive through and don't get out while I'm there. Is the pass still valid there?Greetings, Pascal.

During these days I would like to go to Amsterdam, Brussels, and Paris, I cannot find any trains during December, where can I find the schedule for the trains, any tips?

Hello,I purchased a Eurail pass for travel the end of September.  We are flying into London Heathrow arriving on September 29 around 12:30pm.  We want to travel from London to Paris the same day.  I noticed that checking the train schedule it says seat reservation required.  What train do we take from Heathrow to Paris city center and how do we reserve seats?

I will be travelling from Krakow to Prague on 30 Aug by IC407 overnight. I’ve bought my ticket and reservation already.. but the disembarking station is “closed”.. so does that mean I can’t get off at that station? The train company did not provide other alternative transportation… what should I do?  The same is happening for my night train from Prague to Budapest, where the 2nd and 3rd station is “closed” but the train company did not provide other alternative transportation… what should I do?  

Hi All,Does a Eurail pass work from my home railway station in the UK?  That is, can I travel from Crewe [UK] to Nice via London [Eurostar] & Paris to Nice and back?Is that 2 or 4 journeys?Many thanks, John

Hello, we’re a family of 5, and we’re traveling from Amsterdam to Luxemburgo at night, but I can’t find the price nor the times of departure. Can you please help me? Thank you very much. 

Hello, I have several changes of train when traveling from Luxemburgo to Lausanne. The first one is at 00:49 and two other changes. My question is if that’s only one travel in my Eurail pass or 3 travels. Please help!! Thanks a lot. 

I’m looking to go from Krakow to Wien. If I already have the global pass and want a 2 beth deluxe how much more would it cost? Where do I see the price difference if I have not bought my global ticket yet?

Hi! My friend and I are currently planning a trip, and Eurail can be a bit overwhelming.I was just wondering if there is a train that gets us from Geneva to Lyon? I can’t seem to find any information on it.Thank you,Bella

 Travelling from Stroud UK to La Ciotat France in the last week of May 2024. Day 1 Fri 24th or Sat 25th MayStroud to LondonLondon to ParisParis to Marseille Marseille to La Ciotat Same return journey. As we’re not stopping at multiple locations other than to get connecting trains, do you think it would be cheaper to buy regular train tickets rather than an interrail pass (plus supplements for Eurostar and Paris to Marseille)?  From my initial browse it looks equally costed as the Eurostar without interrail is expensive as is the Paris to Marseille leg. I’m drawn to the interrail pass as we used it for a longer trip this year and found it really easy to use. We’ll only be away for between 7-9 days. Our intention is to not fly. Any advice recommended. 

Hello!My mum and I are travelling through Europe this winter, starting in London and ending in Venice. We are spending christmas in Colmar, France and want to do some scenic railways for two/three days through Switzerland and then end in Venice. Are most of the scenic railways not covered by the Eurorail pass? Is it then worth getting the SwissTravel Pass? Does anyone have some recommendations on routes… All and any advice is appreciate

Hey, do you know if I can get on a long-distance train what is full and requires taking seats? In other words, if I don't have a seat, can I still get on and be on the ground?

Hi we are travelling from Vienna to Salzburg and would like to take the Semmering Railway scenic route. Can you recommend the best way to plan this journey and are there only high speed trains out of Vienna on this route? Travelling in early September. Thanks .. Mazzy

On the train time table it says you have to pay for 2 sleeping carriage one on the start and one in the second at 0.55hr if you paid for a sleeping carriage shouldn't you stay on it asleep and not have to get off one and go sleep on another one
