Hi, I really want to get an interrail pass and in the planning stages of the trip I found it really difficult to find any precise info about the first day of the pass.
So, I live in Italy and the plan is to get an international night train from Verona to Munich (it leaves at 1.00 am). So I know you can't use the pass in your own country and you have a discount to get out of your country but does this matter for an international train? Do I have to pay the Verona - border fare (with a discount)? Or do I have to pay the Verona - Munich fare (with a discount)? The train requires a reservation either way does that change anything?
Cheers

Hi!
For this night train (CNL) you have to buy a special fare reservation which includes the reservation fare for a seat/couchette/sleeper plus the ticket to the border.
You have to buy it at a station, it is not available online.
We are official partners of interrail.eu - to support the free information and the forum on railcc, please be fair and buy your official Interrail pass via our railcc partner link: [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux]
Thank you! :)

You did not say for WHEN.
In this case its likely cheaper to buy an advance special prices ticket all the way, with your choice of seat or sleep, except when thats too late to do. You are italian? FS does not want to do anything with this train-often even denies its existence or does not bother to know about it, as its run by DB and OeBB (with the help of TreNord), these have their own special ticket buro's in Milano and Verona-closed in the night. THus this is a special case-which did not exist when InterRail was invented and they did not really bother to adapt all the rules.

Please get your facts straight. Trenitalia of course sells tickets for this train, as you can easily check on their website...
