Yes they not only wait but actually 2 carriages are travelling direct from Krakow to Bratislava! The coupling/decoupling is done in Bohumín.

If Rail Planner doesn't show a direct train (it struggles with such trains), either add Krakow-Bohumín and then Bohumín-Bratislava or add the full journey manually. I'd do the former option.

This is one of the reasons you should never use the Rail Planner app to plan. In this case, use cd.cz, where you can also buy the reservation much cheaper than via Interrail.
