Power sockets 

All sleeper compartments and some couchette compartments offer power sockets.

Children

Children up to 3 years travel for free when they don't need an own bed. Children from 4 to 14 years generally only pay the supplement for the bed (depending on the fare booked).

Dogs

Dogs are allowed on all NightJet-services but you have to book a private sleeper/couchette-compartment. A ticket of €30 is payable on the spot for the transport of the dog. Guidance dogs are taken for free.

Luggage
There is no luggage-limit for NightJet-services but the luggage room in the compartments might be limited. You can stow your luggage above the corridor door and under your bed.

Boarding 

You can board any time before departure, there is no check-in at the station. After boarding the steward will collect your tickets for inspection and explain the features of the compartment. On some international services you hand over your passport to the steward so you wont be disturbed for border checks during the night.

Discount cards  

Discount Cards give a discount of 25 to 50% off full fare tickets. There is no discount given on cheap Sparschiene-fares.

Interrail / Eurail 

Passengers with a valid Interrail or Eurail-pass can use the special Pass-fare on NightJet-services.  Pass holders pay €20 to €35 for a couchette and €45 to €105 for a 3, 2 or 1 bedded sleeper (depending on the number of people sharing in the compartment).

If you are traveling on a Eurail/Interrail Flexi Pass, you only need to write the day of departure on your pass. The entire journey must be within the validity of the pass. Effectively, it therefore only costs you one travel day of the total available number of travel days.

Groups 

For groups from 6 persons we offer special group fares, see Group travel by train.

Business

Overnight services provide attractive options for the business traveller. Instead of an early departure from a distant airport you can have a good sleep on the night train and start your day with a breakfast onboard.  See also Business travel by train.

At the station

Lounges in Amsterdam and all major German cities are accesible for holders of a ticket for De Luxe sleeping compartments. At most stations there are signs where you can find your carriage along the platform.
