As it happens, I currently find myself in St Peterburg (Leningrad).. Here for the weekend and thinking of trying out the Allegro on my way back west out to Helsinki on Sunday.
My question: is FIP valid at all on this service? I know we have 50% reduction on VR in Finland -(unfortunately, I don't have any VR coupon with me out here..).
If FIP is recognised then I can already see the pantomime that will be involved with the RZhD staff at the kasse in the Finnlandskii Vokzal when I try to explain that I'm Railway personnel from Great Britain in my broken Ruskii!!
Any info about this train and tips, things, places of interest in both cities for that matter most welcome. It will be my first time in Helsinki -(and Finland).
Spaciba!
