Hi, I am planning to go interrailing for three months. I was wondering how the wifi is on the trains. Should I upgrade my mobile data plan from 10GB per month or do you think it’s enough? Thank you so much, David
Wifi on the train
Varies an awful lot between countries. Ive done my last IR for 2 month last autumn and tried it out. In general: the further north, the more chance, the further south, the less chance.
In many countries there is also more stable WiFi in main stations-f.e. in FR they now often even have special counters/seats for that in the waiting area-and then you discover it will only take FR numbers!
In DE/DB usually very good on the ICE/IC-local trains very variable. AT/OeBB-good in the RailJet and newer local trains. CH/SBB; NOT. BE/NMBS: only with a very cumbersome registration, did not try that. FR: can do in most TGV-but you have to discover the sneaky way to get around the ´only for FR nrs!
But if you have a plan with a fone-you can easily upgrade or buy extra MB when on the road.
