What sort of supplement must a Eurail pass holder pay to make a reservation on the IC or ICN trains in Italy?

Question

According to the die-bahn.com booking site a reservation is needed even for the IC trains in Italy. Is there a way to to just make a reservation and pay the supplement without buying a full ticket? I've been using this site, but so far have only figured out how to buy a full ticket:

I'm specifically looking at taking the ICN 774 Marco Polo train on the evening of thursday the 26th. I would like to make the reservation for a seat or even for a couchette if it is not too expensive, but as I said I have only figured out how to make a full reservation and not just the supplement payment a Eurail Pass holder must pay. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Answer 1

reservatin, exept for the ultrafast trains is 3 euro.

It's not mandatory on IC trains, it is on ICN, as it is a night tain or you'll have nowhere to sleep.

Ask at the thicket booth or the silly thicket machine

Answer 2

You can book the supplement only at the ticket windows in the station, but not on the website for Italian trains.

You can do this at: http://www.railkey.com/tickets/default.a... though. If you enter the data for your trip, youll be given the option for full tickets or reservation only.
