Overnight sleepers reservations available? <BR> <BR>Fodors <BR> <BR>This train gets busy in June, and I think a week is not time enough to book in advance. But you need not pay an American agent's high fees if you book direct with French Rail. You use <BR> http://voyages.sncf.fr/hs_reservatio...tion&langue=GB <BR>and say that you are booking from France. Then when it comes to the question of where to send the ticket, you say you'll collect at the Gare de Lyon the day before travel. <BR> <BR>If that fails, you can book over the phone, in French office hours, but that will be a little slow as you'll need to wait for them to find an English-speaking bookings clerk. <BR> <BR>Please write if can help further. <BR> <BR>Ben Haines, London <BR> [email protected] <BR> <BR> <BR> Author: <BR> Date: 5/22/2001, 11:56 am ET <BR>available? <BR> <BR> <BR> Author: cj ( [email protected]) <BR> Date: 5/22/2001, 11:56 am ET <BR> <BR> Message: We are traveling from Paris to Venice (June <BR> 20)and would like to take the overnight train. We are going <BR> first class and will need two doubles and are wondering if it is <BR> necessary to make reservations from the US or will a week <BR> advance purchase in France be good enough? <BR> Thanks. <BR> CJ <BR> <BR>
