Although on my selected train appears “free komfort (premium) class seats reservations for 1st class holders on Regiontog trains”, ENTUR will charge additional 500 NOK on REG 471 / REG 472 (Trondheim-Bodoe) for premium class. Only standard is free of charge.

Hello ​@Steve McRed 

Did you really select first class? I obtained a free reservation:

That amount of money seems more like the price for a normal ticket, rather than an Interrail reservation.

 

What’s your travel date, then I’ll double check?

The 500 NOK seems to be the pass price for “Premium plus” a higher categorie. So not just premium, but something extra. With special seats. I don’t think there are normal premium seats available on the connection you were looking for.

thx for your quick reply. Yes, it might be that on several lines there is no premium available. Nevertheless even ENRUR will charge 50 NOK for a standard seat

So what is the benefit to travel 1st class???

you´re right, if I choose 1st class, the standard class is for free. Nevertheless I find out that most of the trains in Norway only offer standard or premium plus class (no premium), which means that it is almost no benefit to travel 1st class interrail, quite disappointing 😥
