Hello,

I with my friends want travel from Bucharest in Romania to Chisinau in Moldova this summer.
I found this offer: https://www1.cfrcalatori.ro/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/SMART_Prietenia_dec2017_EN.pdf
In document is information, that buying ticket is possible at railway stations or in travel agency.
But I have question if is also possible buy online ticket or for example ticket by phone?
The last possible is buy ticket in Romania at railway station, but I am not sure if will be free places in the train and if the price will be same as in offer.

Thank you!

Best regards!

I have the same problem with Wien-Bucharest. It is impossible to buy tickets for romanian international trains online. Only at railway stationen in Romania works.

Hi and welcome to railcc!

Funnily enough, it is possible to buy tickets for this night train online from Moldovian Railways at [ux]https://rail.shop/cfm[/ux]
This apparently also works in the direction Bucharest > Chisinau so it might be worth giving it a try. :)

Regarding the other offer by CFR; this is only available locally at stations or (probably) travel agencies. You could also contact CFR at [ux]http://rail.shop/cfr[/ux]

It would be really nice to hear your experience of this train and your trip! :)

Thank you very much for answering my question!
It is really great, that is possible buy tickets at moldavian website.
Only one interesting thing is, that romanian website offers ticket which cost 19 €, but moldavian website offers ticket which cost 593 MDL (30 €).
But it is cheap too and big advantage is that you can buy ticket from home.

Thank you!
