All right so I'm new to travelling with InterRail, and I would really appreciate some help.
I've look at the other forum topics but I still don't know what the best solution would be for me.
I've got a schedule all planned out for me and a friend, we have an InterRail Global Pass also, but the international timetables say we need reservations for most of the trains, and some even supplements.
The trains we plan on using are :
Oslo S - Bergen 08:11->14:52
Bergen 22:58 -> Oslo 06:26 (overnight, sleeping fee probably)
Oslo 08:07 -> Trondheim 14:48
Trondheim 07:40 ->Bodo 17:25
Bodo 21:10 -> Trondheim 07:40 (overnight, sleeping fee probably)
Trondheim 08:20 ->Stockholm 19:32
Stockholm 07:21-> Copenhaga 12:37
Copenhaga07:42 -> Berlin 14:27
Berlin 08:35 -> Praga 13:18
Praga 08:30 -> Viena 13:20
Now I don't really want to make the reservations online because they become pretty expensive, but I'm afraid that if I make them at the Railway Stations when we get there they'll say they're already full and our schedule will be screwed. Norway and Sweden have reservation compulsory from what I can find.
So, if anyone can help, I would really appreciate it.

hi...
please reserve means: supplement not needed. :)
Oslo S - Bergen 08:11->14:52: free
Bergen 22:58 -> Oslo 06:26 (overnight, sleeping fee probably): as much as I know, seats are free. but I will check it again
Oslo 08:07 -> Trondheim 14:48: free
Trondheim 07:40 ->Bodo 17:25: free
Bodo 21:10 -> Trondheim 07:40 (overnight, sleeping fee probably): see above
Trondheim 08:20 ->Stockholm 19:32: I couldn't find this direct connection. but if you use an X2000 in Sweden, have a look on these links...
More information: [u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]
Stockholm 07:21-> Copenhagen 12:37: Stockholm to Malmö by X2000 - see above, then free
Copenhaga07:42 -> Berlin 14:27: free
Think about this night train, cheap and good: [u]https://rail.cc/en/train/copenhagen-to-berlin[/u]
Berlin 08:35 -> Praga 13:18: free by direct day train
Praga 08:30 -> Viena 13:20: EUR 7 - [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/prague-to-vienna[/u]

and just to add...
other possibility...
from Bodö to Narvik [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/bodoe-to-narvik[/u] , then down by train to Gällivare (free) and then by Inlandsbanan down in direction of Stockholm. The Inlandsbanan is really great !!!!

Thanks for the fast response Peter ! :P
So just to clarify, I [b]don't[/b] need to make reservations for most of the trains I'll be taking ? (except X2000 and praga-viena) Or at least I can make them at the station if needed , and no seat availablity would come up ?

right. you can buy all the supplements at stations and I am sure you will get one. for Norway ask at the stations. they are very helpful and friendly in Scandinavia. and speak perfect English!! :)
