point-to-point tickets
We're looking at getting point-to-point tickets from Venice to Vienna, so that we can stop in Verona and/or Innsbruck. Where and when is the best place to get them? (i.e. internet, in advance or not, etc)

I'd just buy them there. You can do it easily when you arrive in Venice, or during your wandering sround there during the day(s) - - returning to the train station in the middle of the day might not fit in your traipsing, but the American Express office is convenient, and I think they sell them, at no markup.
Best wishes,

I would be careful about the ticket purchase as the normal route does not go through Verona/Innsbruck. The trains follow a route through Italy via Udine and Austria via Villach. By going through Verona/Innsbruck you are taking a horseshoe route. You would have to specify via Innsbruck. Enjoy yourself...Rich

Hi luttrell,
Interestingly, the Austrian Rail website,
http://www.oebb.at/
seems to favor the long way around, with 2-3 changes of train.
