Useful travel information

Train travel for disabled passengers

When planning your trip, bear in mind that the standard of disabled facilities on trains and at stations around Europe varies. Special equipment can sometimes be reserved in advance. Read up on what to expect in the Destinations & stations and European routes and trains sections of this site.

What about disabled seating?

Some of Europe's more modern trains have special onboard areas for disabled passengers.
To travel in these spaces you'll need to book a ticket in advance. For advice and to book tickets, phone the Rail Europe call centre or visit our London Travel Centre.

Useful travel information

Taking your bike

Almost all European trains allow bikes folded in a bike bag with the saddle, handlebars and wheels removed. And, as long as it's no bigger than a normal suitcase, it'll be covered as part of your luggage allowance. But if you can't fit your bike into a bike bag, some trains also have bicycle spaces which you will need to pre-book at the same time as you book your ticket. To book a bicycle space with your travel ticket, phone the Rail Europe call centre or visit our London Travel Centre. You can find out more about bicycle spaces in the European routes and trains sections of this site.

Alternatively, why not simply rent a bike when you arrive in the cities you plan to explore? Major cities have bike rental schemes and you can often pick bikes up and drop them off at points across the city.

Useful travel information

Special dietary requirements

There's a choice of meals on the Eurostar for Business Premier and Standard Premier passengers. Please indicate if any of your passengers have any special dietary requirements. Note that these are not available if you're travelling in the next 48 hours. You can find out more about the food served on trains in the European routes and trains sections of this site.

For further advice on the above and to book tickets, phone the Rail Europe call centre or visit our London Travel Centre.

Seat reservations for InterRail pass holders

Please note that a reservation alone is NOT VALID FOR TRAVEL unless used alongside a valid InterRail pass.

If you already have a valid InterRail pass, or are planning to buy one, selecting 'Reservation' allows you to pre-book a seat on a specific train.

Why do I need to make a seat reservation when I already have an InterRail pass?
Seat reservations are compulsory on most high speed and overnight trains and are not included in the price of an InterRail pass. Find out more in our Rail Pass Guide.
