Hello your chanel is very helpful, thank you so much. My husband and I are traveling next month to Italy. We will be taking the train a lot. We’re also bringing 2 big luggages the check in size. My question is, is it safe to leave the luggages by the cabinet where there’s multiple other luggages? Also will it fit if we put it in between the seats that you showed because your video shows like it was a small carry on luggage.

Thank you for a great video, it was just what I was looking for. We are travelling in Italy for about 7 days mid-January 2023. We will be coming from Switzerland and was wondering if you had any tips for this time of year. I'm also not sure what is the best train to get from Lucerne, Switzerland to Florence. The high-speed train seems to be the best option, but I mostly see trips for the express trains from Zurich. Any advice for me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

It depends on the type of train. If you are going to buy a high speed train the closer to departure the more expensive becomes either at the station or on line. Regular trains are the same price all the time so it doesn’t matter

90 days in advance purchase is ridiculous. You don't know if you will be ALIVE IN 90 DAYS! A week to 10 days at most is more realistic. Many years ago a group of us were going skiing in the north so we bought train tickets and a Rapido supplement for the faster train going north Rome-Milan and Rapido north only. On New Years day the Rapido didn't come and no information as to when it would, so we took the old and slow train that took 8 hours and many stops. On the return we presented the return tickets and the unused Rapido supplement. Conductor refused to accept it and we refused to buy a south bound rapido at much higher cost. Successive levels ofsupervisors arrived but we stood ourground. They went away infrustration. The conductor refused to accept my suggestion that we goto the Rome ticket office and exchange the supplementary tickets as he was leaving the train in Florence, so no settlement could be made and that is how it ended with no further action taken.
