European train tickets are divided into "tickets" and "reservations." Holding a train pass is considered as having the "ticket." When making reservations, depending on the train schedule and type, they are categorized into: mandatory reservations, recommended reservations, and no reservations required.
【Why Choose a Rail Pass】
👉🏼 If you plan to take three or more train rides, a rail pass is highly recommended!
👉🏼 In addition to being more cost-effective, a pass offers flexibility — no need to pre-plan specific trains, you can freely choose departures on your travel days.
👉🏼 For special trains such as night trains or scenic trains, you only need to pay the reservation fee, which is cheaper than a full fare ticket.
【Recommended Seat Reservations】
⚠️ For popular routes such as the Swiss Golden Pass Line (Lucerne–Interlaken), you can still board even without a reservation.
⚠️ Seat reservations are recommended for international routes, long-distance journeys, or high-demand routes.
⚠️ If you’re traveling with a group and wish to sit together, it’s best to reserve seats in advance.
⚠️ Some reservation fees are dynamic, and booking early is usually cheaper.
【No Reservation Needed】
✅ Most trains in Switzerland, Germany, and the United Kingdom do not require or even allow seat reservations.
✅ When traveling with a rail pass, you can sit in any available unreserved seat (First Class pass holders may also sit in Second Class seats if desired).
From a country perspective, most trains in France, Italy, and Spain require mandatory reservations. From a train type perspective, high-speed trains like TGV, Thalys, Eurostar, and Trenitalia, as well as sleeper trains and most scenic trains, require reservations.
【Why Some Trains Require Seat Reservations】
💺 For comfort and safety: No standing tickets are allowed on certain trains, especially high-speed services.
💺 High demand routes: Trains such as the Glacier Express in Switzerland or Trenitalia services in Italy often sell out.
💺 Border and security regulations: Some international trains, like Eurostar (UK–France) or TGV (France–Spain), require passenger lists for security and border control.
💺 Enhanced onboard services: Night trains and scenic trains offer added services such as beds, dining, or panoramic carriages — the reservation fee covers these extras.
💺 To ensure seat availability for local travelers: For instance, Eurostar limits rail pass use to prevent over-occupation by tourists, ensuring seats remain available for local passengers.
Discounts range from 5% to 50%, covering hotels, attractions, mountain railways, ferries (including night ferries), lockers, buses, photo printing, and more.
🇩🇪 In Germany, S-Bahn (commuter trains) are included in the rail pass — available in cities like Munich, Berlin, Cologne, and Frankfurt.
However, U-Bahn (metro/subway) is not included.
🇬🇷 In Greece, ferry passes cover routes operated by Superfast Ferries, Blue Star Ferries, and Hellenic Seaways. Seat reservations are required but free of charge.
⛴️ Around Interlaken, boat services on Lake Thun and Lake Brienz are included in the Swiss rail pass.
🚌 City buses are not included, nor are Switzerland’s PostBuses.
Eurail is a marketing and distribution platform jointly established by multiple European railway companies — it does not operate trains itself. When travelers use a Eurail Pass, each train company records the journey, and Eurail consolidates these records to distribute revenue proportionally among the rail operators that actually provide the transport service.
Eurail continuously updates its age categories to reflect global travel trends. Before 2017, the Youth Pass was available to travelers under 27 years old. Before 2010, there was no Senior Pass at all. All age eligibility is determined based on the first day of pass use, not the date of purchase.
Eurail train pass holders enjoy a 10% discount on all GetYourGuide tours and activities, including museum tickets, tours, city passes, theme parks, and more.
Eurail Pass holders travel for free on BLS Interlaken lake Cruise on lake Brienz and lake Thun.
Enjoy a KD river cruise at a special 20% off — a perfect way to take in the beauty of the Rhine.
