General information: ÖBB Nightjet

The ÖBB Nightjet is the name given to the overnight train passenger services operated by the Austrian railway company, ÖBB. Introduced in late 2016, ÖBB Nightjet trains are massively popular among travelers, mostly because these European sleeper trains are remarkably comfortable. ÖBB Nightjet trains are also popular because they feature amenities like onboard toilets, air conditioning systems, large and comfy beds, and inviting staff. There are approximately 160 Nightjet trainsets in service, but by the end of the year, there will be about 231, as the company has ordered 33 ÖBB Nightjet new trains. ÖBB Nightjet trains cover lots of routes with the most popular ones including Vienna–Amsterdam, Munich–Rome, Innsbruck–Hamburg, and Vienna–Livorno.

Ticket Types: ÖBB Nightjet

Sleeper Cabin tickets: Nightjet sleeper cabins are the most comfortable carriages on the trains. These carriages feature single, double, and triple compartments. If you buy a single sleeper cabin ticket, you’ll have access to your own compartment. If you purchase a double compartment ticket, you’ll share a compartment with another traveler, while if you get a triple compartment ticket, you’ll share a compartment with two other travelers. If you decide not to travel, you can get reimbursed for your ticket if you cancel 15 days before the first day of validity, at no charge. If you cancel your ticket between 14 days and one day prior to the first day of its validity, you’ll be refunded half the cost of the ticket. From the first day of its validity forward, you won’t be refunded.

Couchette tickets: If you plan on traveling with your family or friends, you should consider booking ÖBB Nightjet couchette tickets. The type of couchette tickets you purchase will determine the number of people you can travel with. If you purchase 4-berth couchette tickets, you’ll be able to travel with four total individuals, while if you purchase private couchette compartment tickets, you’ll be able to travel with six individuals of your choosing. Just like sleeper cabin tickets, couchette tickets are refundable. If you cancel your tickets up to 15 days before the date you were destined to travel, you’ll be fully refunded, at no cost. If you do so between 14 days and one day prior to your travel date, you’ll be refunded roughly half the amount you paid.

Seating carriage tickets: Seating carriage tickets are usually quite sought after. This can be attributed to the fact that they are more pocket-friendly than couchette tickets and sleeper cabin tickets. If you purchase a seating carriage ticket, you’ll be given a seat in a six-seater compartment. Just like couchette and sleeper cabin tickets, seating carriage tickets are refundable up to one day before their validity.

Sparschiene tickets: Sparschiene tickets are the most affordable tickets you can book for night trains in Europe. Given that they are limited and in high demand, you should book yours as early as you can. Kindly note that, unlike all other ÖBB Nightjet train tickets, Sparschiene tickets cannot be exchanged, refunded, or canceled.

The 270 miles (435 km) Vienna-Venice route is one of the common routes served by ÖBB. Normally, the company has two trains on this route. If you board one of these trains, your journey will last about 7h 39min.
