Hello,
a friend and I want to travel from Sofia to Istanbul by train in August. Both of us have Interrail Global passes. Is there a way to reserve two beds on the sleeper train online, or can this only be done at the Sofia train station? Has anyone traveled that route recently, and could tell me if it's too big of a risk (all beds taken..?) to wait that long, and whether part of the route is still covered by bus transfer?

Thanks! :))

Hi!

Reservations are not available online; but since there is still bus replacement in Turkey (from Kapikule all the way to Istanbul) reports suggest that there are no couchette/sleeper cars on the night trains from Sofia/Bucharest to Istanbul anyway.
We would be curious to hear from your experiences. ;)

We are official partners of interrail.eu - to support the free information and the forum on railcc, please be fair and buy your official Interrail pass via our railcc partner link: [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux]
Thank you! :)
