Hello,
I'm starting to make reservations in my country for all the trains that I will go on the interrail but for this one has been difficult, the guy from the station says it only can make a reservation paying the global price (55€) without the discount, so I want to know if it's true when you say that for seat we don't need the reservation since I'm going from Venice to Ljubljana and some days later from there to budapest always on EN241.

I'd apreciate some help because I'm affraid of not making the reservation and then the train is full or something

Regards,
Paulo

It you are making reservations from other countries it can happen that the system doesn't work properly and won't give you the reservation you wanted. Last year I had to make reservations for trains in France, Spain and Portugal and it took me three visits at the counter at my station (Graz, Austria) until I finally got the reservations I wanted.
So it could be possible that the system had problems, I would definitely go and try again at the counter.
However, if you actually end up with no reservation and the train being full you could alternatively go to Ljubljana via Villach (it's slower but you won't lose a whole day waiting for the next days 241).

Thank you for the reply, I already went to the station severall times and some trains are being difficult to get reservation, this is one of them.

The problem of going to Ljubljana via villach is that I already booked an hostel ate ljubljana and I'm supposed to be there at 2.00AM

I'm seeing the train to Ljubljana via villa opicina and the hours/duration are almost the same as the EN241, but I think it's more expensive, can you tell me how much it is?
And I still have the same question, the seat from EN241 doesn't need reservation right?

Sorry for the delay but I had to leave.
I'm watching it again and I saw it wrong, the train to Villa Opicina is actually the same to Ljubljana, the EN241.

OK I see.

However, I just asked at the counter of my train station and was told that there is a 5€ compulsory supplement for the seated accomodation on the 240/241.

Thank you again.
The problem is that at the counter of my train station they can only reserve at global price (the 55€ I mentioned before).
They say that some trains have only a few seats available for interrail passes and sometimes those seats are already full, could you know if there is still available two seats for the 21st of june for Interrail passes, Venezia to Ljubljana?
Maybe here in Portugal they just can't access the system properly but I want to make sure if that's a problem of my station or if it's already full.

If it's to much trouble, don't bother, thanks anyway for all your help

Sure, I will go again and ask for that specific day. If you'd like to I could buy them too and send them to you too. There shouldn't be any problems whatsoever.

it is not possible.
if you want the ticket printed by a ticket machine, you have to pick it up somewhere in Italy.

soo..I can make the reservation online, right? ...and after that, there must be something like a code or a receipt of payment, that comproves that I've made a reservation, right?

I'm sorry to make so many questions..but I really need to catch this train. :os
Thank your very much for your attention, Peter! You've been really helpful

I only know it from other countries, never tried this in Italy till now. prefer the one-to-one contact at a ticket window.
but from other countries I can explain you: you will get a code, then you put in the machine your credit card and then the ticket is coming out (often you even don't need a code, and the credit card is enough).

To buy those supplements at the trenitalia.it website they ask for a global pass number, but the interrail ticket has a lot of numbers in it. :p Which number should we use?

Thanks!

fill in your passport number when they ask for.
