I understand that it would be a lot more comfortable to take the ÖBB Nightjet and I did do research beforehand on the route from Hamburg to Innsbruck. When I told my parents about this suggestion though, they thought it was too expensive, even if we split the amount evenly up, and they were not comfortable with sleeping among strangers in a compartment. Since getting a private compartment costs even more, Therefore, I had to choose the next best thing which was the ICE.Now, I’m fine with sleeping in seats. I have done an 18+ hour overnight journey from Stockholm to Narvik with earplugs, in a compartment filled with crying babies, barking dogs and loud screeching from open windows, but I slept well, nonetheless.Also, I forgot to mention that we have 1st class Interrail passes and have booked seats in the 1st class quiet car on the ICE. The only thing I was concerned about was the delay.
OK. Thank your for responding. I think I will make a compromise. My ÖBB resevations also covers the Hamburg-Munich part of the journey with the High Speed Train. Perhaps I could book a new resevation from Munich to Venice and use the old one on the high speed portion in Germany. That is, if it saves me more time than booking a completely new reservation on the whole route...
Thank you for your reply. I am not sure if I want to make a new reservation. If I am going to pay the supplement at the station, how would I do this? Can I do it in Munich, or is it at a designated station? I am also going home on the same route again from Rome to Munich. Is it also required to pay the supplement when entering Austria again?
