All about seat reservations

 

What are seat reservations? 

 

It’s a separate ticket ensuring you have a seat on a specific train, even on the busiest services. It’s not included in your Pass and comes with an extra charge. 

 

Most high-speed trains and night trains require a seat reservation; they’re often mandatory on routes like Eurostar, TGV, AVE, etc.

Check the Interrail app if your journey requires a reservation.
