    Sleeper reservation Bratislava - Košice

    I'm able to book a Single sleeper compartment on train #EC283 (Brat. hl. st. 22:04/Kosice 06:44) for 19.06. To me this would indicate it will run the entire distance. It would likely be blocked if not running or running on a shortened route. The supplement is 33 Euro for a Single.

    Advice on Polish domestic sleeper trains

    If the train you are looking at has the option of 3-person couchette compartments, would be your cheapest option, as the equipment is exactly the same as the sleeper! (I don't get the logic either, as the sleepers often sell out, and they could sell this as more expensive sleeper space!)

    I prefer a simple interface like this; you can navigate from the keyboard. Many newer sites are a real pain to navigate, and impossible to use without a mouse.
