Hi, we are from england, and are planning on purchasing a one month global pass, we will be starting in in Paris and then moving on to Strasbourg and although it's a bit of a detour we fancy spending a few hours in luxembourg. there are a few trains that will take 2/3 hours to get from paris to luxembourg and are subject to compulsory reservation which i think is 3 euros. But they are also Subject to supplement - what does this mean? and also it says 'Global price' which i've researched on the forums but i'm still confused about.
so what i'm asking is, what is a supplement, and what does global price mean?
thank you...Kate

Hi Kate.
The words global price compulsory reservation or subject to supplement are not important for InterRail pass travelers using the train schedules:
[u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]
The schedule planer is made for travelers with normal single train tickets. There is no special InterRail schedule planer.
InterRail travelers have to do it this way:
1) Check the [b]schedules[/b][u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]
2) Compare it to the [b]supplements[/b] website: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-train-reservation[/u]
3) Check the [b]country topics[/b] for more details, supplements for night trains - or on how to avoid trains with supplements: [u]https://rail.cc/en/countries[/u]
Your case Paris - Luxembourg, like you said: the direct connection with a TGV train - currently the supplement is EUR 3.
But you can travel for free as well: [u]https://rail.cc/en/paris-luxembourg-train/f5703[/u]
