Know Before You Go
🛏️
Book sleeper cabins early
Private cabins sell out weeks in advance on popular Nightjet routes. Couchettes and seats are easier to get last-minute.
🎟️
Use an Interrail or Eurail pass
Most night trains accept rail passes. You still pay a reservation fee (€6–€45), but skip the full ticket price.
🧳
Pack light — it's worth it
No luggage hold means no queues. Just a bag you can lift to the overhead rack and you're door-to-door.
☕
Breakfast is often included
ÖBB Nightjet sleeper and couchette passengers get a continental breakfast delivered to their cabin. Budget for it.
📱
Book direct for the best fares
Operator websites often have lower fares than aggregators. ÖBB, European Sleeper, and SNCF all sell direct.
🌍
It's a carbon-smart choice
A night train typically emits 5–10× less CO₂ per km than flying the same route. Sleep guilt-free.
