Train tickets at Milano Centrale ...
 
Have never been to Milano Centrale. Is there a specific area of the station where I can make reservations for the high speed train to Florence?<BR><BR>Appreciate comments.<BR><BR>Bob

Go to the Eurostar Reservation ticket windows on the street level. If these are mobbed, you can make reservations and purchase tickets at the travel agency on the ground floor, near the side exit from where buses leave for Malpensa Airport.

GAC, <BR>Wouldn't it be better to reserve them on line instead of waiting? Is there ever a chance of the train being full or there not being first class tickets available?

There are Eurostar trains leaving hourly for Florence, so if your first choice is sold out (for both first and second class), you could take the next train one hour later! I don't see a strong need to secure seat reservations in advance.

Thanks, good point.

Agree with GAC. We got tickets at the travel agency by the airporter stop just outside. In and out in 5 min.<BR><BR>John
