hello all, I see that if I am to avoid any further reservation costs then I will need to travel at a slower pace and possible take a more senic route.I had planned down to Valence to be near the express train to Milan from Chambery, however I’m not wishing to spend much more money on reservations for the 5 of us!!!!!I had dreamt of a trip in a life time on the Brenina Express but it is become apparant that it may not be a dream for all the family so I am asking you if there is a route that could be of interest for kids that takes us from France into Itlay possibly going a little higher up to drop back down to Milan, then to the coast and back into France to take the nice to Paris train home. It is interesting how many variations the planner can provide with such a range of stops. Ideally I’m looking to brake the scenic journey into two parts with around 3-4hrs travel max. and apptempting to avoid the expense of city centre accoadation. Any suggests, ideas or shared past experience appr
I have found a 2nd class empty couchette travelling23/07/22 at 21.41Austerlitz to Nabonne 07.10 that I wish to reserve for my family ( of 5) but take the whole carriage. When speaking to the very helpful staff a SNCF they have reserved bookings over two fist class carriages as we have 1st class interrail tickets and informaing me it’s not possbile to take the second class as I will incurre a fee/fine on the train. Any advise or insight would be much appreciated.Thank you in advance
I had hoped to book the complete space for a family of 5 to travel in comfort, it is the first time for the girls and travelling overnight with an additioanl stranger is going to be challenging for them. Unforatunaly the very helpful SNCF assistant could not inform me whether we were to be travelling with an additiaonl Male or Female.When I look at the Trainline app ( UK booking site) , their option for booking five people is as shown and doesn’t seem to want to group us together!! I am wondering if this if why there are no empty couchette, as I was informed that there was one person in each carriage??Any advice would be appreciated.
