We are looking to book the night train from Paris Austerlitz to Cerbere in April. I know the schedule isn’t released yet and I don’t think you can make bookings, so I’m testing the booking system out for earlier dates in February.So I’m looking at 09 Feb, 20:08, arriving about 10am next day, direct train, for 2 adults and 1 child (2 years old). Using SNCF or Traline I can see that private couchettes are possible for that route, but obviously I don’t want to book on there, I want to book through Eurrail. When I try and make a seat reservation with Eurail, there is no option for a private cabin upgrade, and also on SNCB there is no option for an upgrade. Does anyone know if there is any option on any website to make an Eurrail booking with private couchette, or do I have to persist with SNCF over the phone?
We’re trying to travel from newcastle uk to figures vilafante spain, and need to make seat reservations. We have successfully done so for eurostar, but the french connection requires sending paper tickets and there is insufficient time. We can’t have our tickets sent to a hotel in France as we’re doing the trip in one day and not staying at a hotel.Does anyone know how we can make a seat reservation and pick up from a ticket machine or station?I know we could risk it and try and make a seat reservation when we arrive at the station in France, but I want to book it in advance, and pick up the paper ticket for the reservation when we arrive.Also, we’ve tried calling SNCF and they weren’t helpful or clear about how to proceed.
