I’m looking to book what looks like a busy train between Salzburg and Villach on 19th June. I’ll be using my Interrail Pass, but my partner won’t be (as they will be using it on the following day on a more expensive route), but will require a seat. What is the best way to book this, to try to ensure that we sit together?
Question
OBB Seat Reservation and sitting together
+9Partner can book a ticket without seat reservation on the ÖBB app/ website.
Then start a new search, same website, and book 2 seat reservations - ticking the ‘seat reservation only’ box. They’ll cost €3 each.
Book both seats in one transaction on the ÖBB website by ticking “seat only”
Your partner then just needs to buy a ordinary ticket without any additional seat reservation.
Seat reservations are optional in Austria, therefore these can be bought separately from ordinary tickets.
