Is my pre-holiday holiday going to work or not? I have about four days to get to Rome and I thought this would involve two night sleeper covering a lot of the distance. Getting a sleeper train - a fairly luxurious sleeper train at that - has two advantages. It means I'm covering ground when I would just be sleeping, and it means the cost of the travel is offset because it is also my accomodation. I did not realise they don't run every day though, they are not running purely at my convenience. So while there's one train I thought I'd get from Vienna to Rome that will work out for me, there's another one going Brussels to Vienna that does not go on the days that I need it. So can I still do this? I only have a few days to work it our and then I have to book it.
So now what if I did London -> Brussels -> Luxembourg City -> Zurich -> Vienna -> Rome? That's a lot of travelling. Day one getting to Luxembourg, day two getting to Zurich, day three getting to Vienna, and as Vienna to Rome is the sleeper that happens all at night so I've still got a day in there somewhere. Maybe I can party late in a couple of these and sleep on a train in the day too, that'll be fine.
It's still sounding doable.
