Europe Brings Back Night Trains: What You Need to Know

Night trains are back in fashion: new routes, operators and why it beats flying.

The Night Train Revival

After decades of decline, night trains are returning to Europe. The reasons: sustainability, comfort and growing demand. European Sleeper, Nightjet and new operators are opening routes dormant for years.

New Routes 2025–2026

  • Brussels — Berlin — Prague (European Sleeper)
  • Vienna — Paris (Nightjet, ÖBB)
  • Zürich — Barcelona (planned 2026)
  • Berlin — Stockholm (SJ + Deutsche Bahn)

Why It's Worth It

A night train replaces a hotel night. Board in the evening, wake up in a new city. Save €50–100 on accommodation plus no airport transfer.

Accommodation Types

Seat — from €30. Couchette — from €50, 4–6 per compartment. Sleeper cabin — from €90, 1–2 people, private sink, sometimes shower.

How to Book

Tickets available on operator websites 3–6 months ahead. Earlier is cheaper. Interrail and Eurail cover most night routes with a reservation supplement.
