Autumn travel idea: First class sleeper experience between Germany and Austria 🌙💭
This train takes you to Vienna or Innsbruck from Hamburg and back. Board at 20.00 and arrive at 09.00 in the morning
~ Check in and open your goodie bag which contains a sleeper mask, earplugs, candies, slippers and your breakfast card
~ upon arrival you get served some sparkling drinks 🍸
~ the room has a toilet, shower, basin and small table
~ make sure to download movies before boarding as the internet is a bit unstable. Enjoy your movie and drinks and most of all, the view
~ wake up and get the breakfast of your choice, which you chose the day before, served to your room. While soaking up the views and landscapes that swoosh by outside the window
🎫 tickets can be booked at @unsereoebb nightjet.com

Hacks and example below 🤍
When travelling by train you can choose to travel with individual tickets or with an pass
EXAMPLES to understand better
1. You’re going to Germany, Italy, Austria and Switzerland —> interrail
2. Exploring a single country —> buy one country pass by @interrail or a national pass for instance SJ tågluffarkort
3. Weekend trip to Paris, London or Amsterdam? —> usually cheaper with regular tickets
But my general advice?
When in doubt - Choose an interrail pass 🌞
Especially if you’re like me and want to explore, visit new places, are a bit spontaneous and want to make stops along the way
NOTE - these are general advice! Always check and compare if you want the best price and have your itinerary planned out
HACKS TO GET CHEAP TICKETS
✨ buy interrail pass during sale (even if you buy in winter you can usually use it in the summer)
✨with interrail the price will always be the same no matter if you travel in peak or not
✨ subscribe to news letters of train companies to know when they release tickets - the earlier you buy the cheaper
✨travel Tuesday-Thursday if possible, usually cheaper tickets these days
Have you ever tried interrailing? And no it’s not backpacking 😏 I’m a luxurrailer ✨
