Cons

Possible delays

BoardBistro too far ahead

Fast connection between the two cities. Comfortable seats, with electricity available at each seat. Especially in the rest area, it's easy to work. Self-check-in at the seat via the app makes it very relaxed. Wifi worked okay (not for watching movies, but enough for googling). Toilets were okay. Drinking water in the toilets would be desirable.
