Hi again :)
I'm travelling from BA to Belgrade today, using the standard trick of splitting tickets in Budapest.
I see that there are now direct cars (Russian ones, running from Bulgaria to Moscow via Slovakia / Poland) and I was thinking of taking this for return journey (Belgrade - Bratislava) to save changing trains at 5:40 am.
Do you know how much the sleeper is for 2 people (sharing a 4 berth is OK if it's a lot cheaper)
I guess it's fine to show return leg tickets BG - BP and the second ticket of BP - Bratislava?
Thanks!

No, Russian Railways (RZD) became big fans of global price tickets, so ordinary SCIC-NRT tickets won't work. As far as I know, special tariff for Bratislava-Belgrade is 43,3 euro (2nd class) or 64,8 euro (1st class) + sleeper reservation (see below)

2 bed sleeper (double) costs 26 euro and requires 1st class ticket, 2/3 or 2/4 (tourist) costs 17 euro and requires 2nd class ticket.
--> it meas that in case you want to travel using RZD carriages, then it will cost you minimum 60,3 euro (43,3+17)
