I am trying to reserve a night train couchette on the train between BAR in montenegro and BEOGRAD and then two laters a train to SKOPJE. I have been unsuccessful so far. The website is cumbersome and implies everything is booked out, and the only phone number I have so far is a Serbian call centre. I can book it (i think) at my local ÖBB station but it costs a great deal more (like 30€ a bed).

A few questions.
Do I need to reserve a seat?

Can I reserve a night train on the day of departure? I find this a little risky as we are travelling mid August...

Can I reserve the train from here (in Austria) easily and cheaply?

Can I reserve the train in Slovenia or Croatia and will I get the couchette at the same price as in Montenegro or Bosnia?


Thanks, any help is appreciated.

You should be able to book the Belgrade - Skopje train in Belgrade, and nowhere else, and the Bar - Belgrade train on the train, or maybe in Monetenegro.

I really wouldnt worry about it being busy, turn up, hop on and find the conductor to see what is available

Have fun
