Is it cheaper to reserve a couchette at the station?


Hi all.

I'm looking at reserving a bed in a couchette for the night train from Vienna to Paris on 27th. It's €29 ish to do this via the OBB night jet website (for a 6 bed womens' only). Before I book, I was wondering if it's worth booking it at the train station in Vienna instead (or Bratislava if they're able to do it from there) to see if I can get it cheaper.

 

Any insight would be appreciated.

Price won't make a difference. Itis not dependent on where you book it.

For sure? Because I was originally going to book a night train to Zurich at Zagreb Station and it was cheaper. Wasn't sure if it was just that specific train though.

Very sure. Different routes give different prices. ÖBB Nightjet has dynamic pricing now, so it's more difficult too compare. In any case it's best to get them as soon as you can because of that dynamic pricing :)
