Hi!I think I may be reading things too literally to see the obvious so apologies in advance to the seasoned interrailers!I’d be very grateful for your advice.  If I start my journey from home in Edinburgh and take the train to London and then the Eurostar to Paris all in one day, does this count as my “outbound journey”?  In other words, does this still leave me with all of my “travel days”?  (I plan to buy a Global 7 day travel pass so would it still leave me with all 7?)Also, if anyone has any ideas of alternatives to going through London that would be much appreciated. I had thought about getting the train to Newcastle and then the ferry to Amsterdam but that ferry doesn’t seem to be included in the pass and it’s ridiculously expensive.  There had been talk of a ferry from Rosyth to Dunkirk but that seems to have stalled.Many thanks in advance!  Alison

Hi guys,I already traveled with an Interrail pass, but this time I have a weird issue. My direct train (witch is in 2 days) from Wroclaw to Berlin doesn’t show on the app timetable. I have the reservation and I don’t know what should I do, I mean - how should I validate my ticket on board. When you add it manually, QR code doen’t show? Train information:IC(EC)37004/54 ODRAdeparture time: Wrocław 7:11arrival time: Berlin Hbf 11:11 I’ll be really greatefull for your help, thanks.

Hi everyone,Regarding the decision between a first-class and second-class ticket, I’d like to ask you something.I’ve been on several Interrail trips before, always traveling in second class. Now I’m considering purchasing a first-class Interrail pass. Next summer, I’d like to travel to Norway and Sweden, and I was wondering if any of you have experience with first class there. Do you think it’s worth it?I did some research in the Rail Planner app beforehand, but I got a bit confused by the prices for seat reservations in first class on regional trains. Are they really free? Are there additional advantages of a first-class pass that make the trip more comfortable or possibly even save you money in the end? And what about food — do you get any benefits there as well?Thank you so much for your help.Have a nice day and a wonderful trip,Lena

Hi everyone,You probably get this question a lot, but I’d like to ask something about the activation process.I’m thinking about buying a pass now because of the sale, but I’d like to travel next summer. Is it possible to activate my pass next August if I buy it in December? Does the sale change anything regarding the time frame for activation?Thank you so much for your help.Have a nice day,Lena

Voy a viajar, ya tengo mi eurail pass y tengo trenes ya guardados. Lo que no entiendo es que en algunos me pide reservar asiento, si eso yo lo hago en taquilla de la estación ese mismo dia de viaje hay alguna posibilidad de que no hayan asientos disponibles siendo que yo ya tengo activado ese tren en mi pase?

Hello everyone,Thank you to all fellow-travellers who have given amazing advice and tips on this forum.After travelling overland through France and Switzerland, we want to give the kids a beach break (they’re 9 & 11). We’ll be in Tirano, north Italy (after hopefully doing Bernina train). Can anyone recommend somewhere not too far away where we could enjoy some nice sea and beach time? The plan after that is to travel through Austria, Germany and back to London that way.  Thanks for any help! 😊

Hello everyone,My family (two adults and two children) would like to travel from Nuremberg to Brest, then on to Montpellier, and from there via Genoa to Rome, before returning to Nuremberg.We're considering first-class tickets if it would save us the cost of seat reservations.Furthermore, the Eurail website's planning software doesn't show any connections from Nuremberg to Brest. However, other websites do show connections. Do we have to plan our routes through the Eurail website, or does it not matter?And how does seat reservation work? Do we book directly with the travel provider?Best Regards  Hallo zusammen,ich möchte mit meiner Familie 2 Erwachsene 2 Kinder von Nürnberg, nach Brest dann nach Montpellier und anschließend über Genua nach Rom und wieder zurück nach Nürnberg.Wir überlegen Tickets für die 1.

Hello,I bought a "4-day in 1 month" Interrail pass in 1st class for me and my girlfriend (for a trip in Austria). It is not activated for the moment.The 1st reservation I would like to do is a "sleeper coach" for us in an ÖBB night train (for the return journey from Vienna to Zurich (for the night of December 23rd to 24th) and I would like some help about this issue if somebody already faced it:When I check availability on this train via the Interrail.eu website, it indicates that "pass holder reservations may be sold out for this connection". (see screenshot below) However, when I try to do the reservation via the ÖBB website (with choice of “Interrail discount”) there is availability : I can book a sleeper coach for 188 euros for 2 people. See screenshot below :

Does anybody know how to chase up Bahn, who have failed to reimburse accommodation due to delay, please?DB stuff-ups (somehow misplacing one half of an ICE) meant I had 102mins delay into Hamburg for what should have been a 65 minute connection to the SJ night train north to my home in the Arctic.Arriving after 22:30, with no further connection possible, the little DB booth just atop the southern escalators checked my RailPlanner app to make sure I’d added the whole journey (Munich-Stockholm), then issued me with a piece of paper which confirmed the delay and told me they wouldn’t be booking me a hotel but that I could spend up to €120 and then post the receipt back with a pink form they gave me in an envelope they gave me before continuing early next morning.I did that, but three weeks later had heard nothing.  So then I tried emailing the address they give
