How can I take this train? It hasn't seats on the öbb website. Should I just ask at the counter in Bucuresti?

Bucharest to Halkali

Pass reservations can only be booked at a Romanian ticket office.
There are no seats to Istanbul/Halkali. Bucharest-Halkali is only 1 couchette carriage.

That means at the ticket counter at Bucuresti Nord?
Is there enough space to reserve a couchette?
How much does a couchette cost?

Any ticket office in Romania that can do international reservations:

The best is to try at the first Romanian ticket office you get to.

€14 (or the equivalent in RON)
I just saw that this reservation can be booked via Deutsche Bahn this year after all:

It does look like you'll need an experienced staff member to book it.
