Is it possible to book adjacent seats on a NightJet train?
Me and my friend would like to book two second class coach seats on a NightJet train from Vienna to Venice at oebb.at. We'd really like them to be next to each other, ideally, facing each other. However, the ticket booking service does not seem to offer such option.
While it does allow us to specify whether we want a window, center or aisle seat (see the image below), it says nothing about where those seats would be located in relation to each other.
Is it possible to book 2nd class seats together? If not, what would be the least expensive alternative rail service that would guarantee that we are seated next to each other?
Best Answer
If you book early you should get "perfect" seat in the sense that you will sit next to eachother. If you want to sit in front of eachother then it's probably a bit harder and you then have two ways of accomplishing this:
You can try asking customer service (maybe a boutique at the station) if they can assign you specific seats. Some of the agent are more helpful than others.
If this isn't a possibility, simply ask if anyone would like to switch seats with you. If you find empty seats, take them and if someone is claiming them, ask if they could take your seats instead.
This is just from my general IC train experience.
