1st class and 2nd class on the trains
Hi Rick Steves! I will be travelling with a 1st class eurail global pass this summer and will be using overnight trains frequently to save money. Since I have no problems sleeping in a seat, I will try to book seats instead of sleepers or couchettes whenever possible. Some trains though, for example the Allegro, state that the seats are 2nd class only. Can I still use them as a 1st class passholder or am I required to book a couchette? Thanks for your help! Jamie

1st class passholders can ride in 2nd class if they want to (but not vice versa).
Haha, you are right, I guess I'm still decaffinated this morning! Sorry! :-/
Thank you so much for your quick response! That was the answer I was hoping for. Thanks again!
