I wanted to go on holiday or to the airport to Amsterdam with the ÖBB nightjet, unfortunately this train was so late that we almost missed our flight. It was very annoying as we had planned a lot of buffer time. In future, I would advise against travelling by train for important appointments. Of course, this only applies to my case. You can't generalise this statement.
