Hi everyone
I'm stoked about going to Europe this summer but am finding it a bit complicated to figure out how the 5 days travel in 10 days works. It would be sweet if anyone could help me out!
Basically, my initery means that I arrive at my destination on the last day of validity of my interrail ticket, (the 10th day) but I'm not sure if i'm exceeding the 5 days of travel rule.
Here's my plan:
Take Eurostar to Paris from London then start the interrail ticket once I'm in Paris
7th July, Paris ---> Belgrade. First journey of interail ticket; journey is alost 26 hours and consists of 2 interchanges, will this count as two days of travel if I depart paris in, say, the morning?
Then Exit Festival until the 11th July
12th July, Belgrade ---> Vienna. Second Journey, departing before midday; 22 hours and one interchange.
14th July, Vienna ---> Prague. Third journey, departing before midday; 5 hours and one interchange.
15th July, Prague ---> Amsterdam. Fourth journey, departign before midday; 15 hours and direct train.
It would be great if someone could let me know if this coincides with the 5 days travel rule on the 10 day ticket or if it exceeds it. Thanks so much!

Hi.
5 in 10 means:
you fix the starting date of your InterRail trip at the purchase of your InterRail pass.
Then you have a period of 10 days. Within this period you can fill in your ticket 5 days manually on which you want to travel. They do not have to be in a row - just fill them in when ever you need them.
ONE travel days is from 00:01h in the morning until 23:59h at night.
You can use as much trains as you want, cross as much borders as well.
There is a special nice rule for night trains:
