I am planning to travel tomorrow morning from Oslo to karlstad, with first class pass.

Can anyone clarify if seat reservations are required? The planner shows optional for IC trains, but other information suggests they may be required for both IC and hst?

If they are optional, any experience with whether it will be easy to get a seat on the morning 727am train?!

Not quite sure on the mandatory/ not mandatory part.

Reservations for the trains can be purchased online directly from SJ by selecting the traveller and adding interrrail as a travel card. https://www.sj.se/en
