Try also hrs.com for finding accommodation. They might not always have the cheapest options, but often their cancellation policy is upto 18.00 or even 22.59 of the day of arrival which gives great flexibility.
@thibcabe But when buying single tickets I have to go to a counter too, won't I?
Many thanks, AI_G, that'll save me quite annoyance!
Thanks, Anna, for your long answer. I certainly will use that information during my trip. (Does this community come in app-form too? Then I can add it to my phone.)But what I don't get is that the ‘frozen’ part of trip details only occurs since 2 days. Before that, and also last year, it worked fine. That's why I thought of some bug. And do you maybe know the answer to my calendar-question too?
Thanks! That's probably the reason..
Thanks @mcadv , I think I'll just see what happens. The only problem I see so far is that if anything goes wrong all my other reservations (including hotels) will be a miss and likely not cancellable. Hopefully my travel insurance won't be too strict.Pff, if I had knew beforehand it was this complicated I'd stick to my original plan of flying to several cities (yes, I always pay for CO2 admission), but a friend warned me about flight cancellations, so I thought let's try the train. To avoid that bottleneck you mention, I think I'll fly that leg anyway. Trains are nice (I used to be a conductor several lifes ago ;), but this…….
Thank you all. It took quite some time, but I found a nice route via Bilbao (stay there) to Madrid. For the part between the border and Bilbao I need to buy tickets, as Euskotren (the Bask train company) isn't a participant as far as I can see, but ticket prices a just a few euros if I looked at their webpage correctly. And using such trains gives me the opportunity to see more from Spain then when using faster ones.
