Cool, together with the planned offerings of the austrian railway it seems the Europe wide night lines will finally be reality... I really hope they will also finally tackle the complicated mess of buying cross boarder train tickets within the EU... vienna -> paris, a day in paris, and then paris -> porto seems nice :)
- ThePowerOfFuet 4y agoThrough ticketing is still an unsolved issue. This is a shame. https://europa.eu/year-of-rail/news/new-action-plan-boosting-long-distance-and-cross-border-passenger-rail-2021-12-14_en https://europa.eu/year-of-rail/news/new-action-plan-boosting...
- Freak_NL 4y agoIt's getting better each year though. On a trip to Italy I bought NightJet and EuroCity tickets via ÖBB's website, and a Frecciargento ticket via Trenitalia's website. All from the comfort of my Dutch home. Tickets for local trains can be trivially bought at terminals which speak a host of languages these days at most Italian stations. At such long distances I prefer to plan a day or so at intermediate points (like Paris in your example) to prevent delays from cascading into the whole trip. So you would have separate tickets anyway. I realise someone who speaks only Dutch and a bit of English may be daunted by that, but there are local train travel agents who can do it for you for a modest fee.
