I'm considering buying an Inter-Rail ticket for my trip to eastern europe, but would like some more information on how it works.

First of all, it says reservations will need to be made for some journeys, how for in advance does this need to be done? For example, can I go to the station in Budapest in the morning and book an overnight train to Bucharest leaving that evening, or would I have to plan the whole trip in advance?

Secondly, I presume the 16/22 days thing are consecutive days only?

Also, I was looking on the raileurope.com site and it gave me a cost of $22 for every return trip with a railcard, that seems a little pricey to me, and I thought it was only a few journeys that had a suppliment, what's the deal here?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
