Q: Can I use my Interrail 2nd class Global Pass to book a deluxe single sleeper cabin on CD? I’d like to use my 2nd class pass to reserve a single deluxe cabin on two routes (Budapest-Krakow & Warsaw-Prague). CD has an easy process, and for both it does assign a single deluxe, *but* going through the ‘Document terms and conditions’, it says:

“Compartments in sleeper carriages are divided into so-called “Economy”, where a 2nd class ticket is required for all types of compartments (Triple, Double, Single and possibly connected Family compartments), and so-called “Deluxe”, where a 1st class ticket is required for all types of compartments. For use of a berth of the category Single (a compartment with one bed), it is necessary to present a travel document issued for 1st class travel.”

CD giving me the option to book a deluxe single with specified 2nd class IR seems to contradict the Ts&Cs. Man in Seat 61 does not specify (as he does for all other night train options) for the Czech site that 2nd class is ok for all. Please help a very confused IR hopeful 🙏

2nd class is sufficient.

I’ve just tried through MAV (for Budapest-Krakow) giving all IR details and it gives me the same  ‘deluxe’ compartment (350, 31 on vagonweb indicates WC & shower) and for less than on CD - 70€ (28,000HUF). I hope this is correct :/ Any confirmation is much appreciated.

Thank you so much - star help as always! I did read through all the Q&As but wanted to be sure “applicable discounts” applied also to Interrail specifically. PKP consistently does not give me the option for any sleeper or couchette bed after providing my IR ticket number and I wondered if this had something to do with my 2nd class pass and that therefore CD’s explanation was also correct. It seems CD has not updated it’ Ts&Cs. Thanks again.
