Hello,

 

I have a trip fully plannend to Zagreb on the 9th and back on the 16th of september. I had booked everything except the reservation for the nightjet. Now i was going to plan and i see that there are no tickets avaible for the reservation for the nightjet. I dont care if its a seat or a sleepingcoupe. I would be happy with everything. 

But my question is, is there any option that there are coming tickets avaible to reservate? Or can i find it anywere else? Or maybe i just go on the train without the reservation? I checked also the BB site but also no tickets. Is there a person who had also expired this? Please help!

Please check on tickets.oebb.at first : add Interrail/Eurail as a discount. nightjet.com doesn't work that well for EN (Euronights) : Stuttgart/Zurich - Zagreb is one of them.

Interrail/Eurail has become even more unreliable recently so don't use that website.

If you have other questions, mention the route and we'll have a look. :)

Thankyou for you answer! I already checked the Oebb website. But you said add Interrail as a discount? What do you mean by that?

For trains with compulsory reservations on ÖBB 

you select ONE WAY TICKETS (NOT only a seat reservation!) and add Interrail as discount card. So you get the correct fare for Interrail (in this case a reservation for nighttrain) 

I know a bit strange but the website works like this.

It says that there are planned construction works on the route. That’s why the timetable is not yet released. Keep checking regularly. There will be for sure seats at least available. I have used this route a few times and often had the compartment for myself or shared with one other person…

Which route and exact date please ? We can't give precise advice or suggest alternatives otherwise.

As said the booking may not be possible if there are engineering works on the route.

As she is from the Netherlands I suppose it is Stuttgart-München-Salzburg-Zagreb

I'm not sure because OP spoke about nightjets and there is one leaving the Netherlands towards Austria too.

Also true! I just read Stuttgart-Zagreb in your first comment and checked that one.

but now also checked the Nightjet and that one is also not yet open for booking it seems (Amsterdam-Rosenheim)
