Train fares and tariffs / Re: Night Train Reservations : Budapest --> Sighisoara w/ a EuRail Pass

Wow!  Many thanks for the great and informative reply!

I was worried I couldn't book it while in Prague and would have to wait until I got to Budapest to do so....and then have to worry about it being sold out!  Good to know I can do it earlier.

I will look in to all these options!

Thanks again for your help!

Train fares and tariffs / Night Train Reservations : Budapest --> Sighisoara w/ a EuRail Pass

« on: July 15, 2012, 10:21:36 am »

Hi everyone!

I was recently asked to go on a business trip that will take me through Hungary and Romania, and after some searching it looks like a night train might be the best way to get between the two.

However, my company purchased me a EURail pass because they felt it would be cheaper and easier, even after I advised them not to, so now I am wondering the best way to make reservations for a sleeper can on this train.

I have looked online at several websites, but most, other than MAV, even give a price quote...and even then most websites don't talk about any sort of rail pass discount or the supplement that must be paid as a rail pass holder.

So I am wondering, is it even possible to reserve/buy tickets online, or is it something that needs to wait until I land in Czech and go to a travel agent at the beginning of my trip?

Many thanks in advance for any advice you can provide me!
