Amazing customer service, I accidentally typed the wrong email and they answered my inquiry right away and sorted everything out. It's nice to know that someone is there to help.

The train was nice and right on time but booking an unreserved ticket is very confusing and it is not explained well how you then reserve the seats. We found it very difficult to navigate the system and get the seats as they wouldn’t let us enter the gate until we had seats reserved and it was stressful.
