Hi!
Me and my friends are planning a trip in July 2015 including some night trains. For most of them, it's impossible to make a reservation online.
Our question: if we buy our tickets (reservations) at the station the day (before) we use the train, would that be ok or will there be some risk that all the tickets will be sold out?
The night trains we want to use:
Prague -> Krakow (online reservation possible -> OK)

Budapest -> Belgrade

Hi!
That's impossible to accurately predict...how large is your group? Do you want to use couchette/sleeper accomodation or just regular seats?
I would reserve the Warsaw - Budapest train in advance, you can do that for instance in Prague at the train station (or many other train stations which have a ticket desk).
Budapest - Belgrade reservations are not needed for regular seats; if you are a larger group and want to travel in couchette/sleeper I would also make a reservation earlier in advance.
Belgrade - Ljubljana is similar as Budapest - Belgrade.
Zagreb - Munich is hard to tell for me but again, if you are a larger group and want to travel in couchette/sleeper accomodation think about making a reservation a few days in advance.
If you want to stay more flexible, you can of course wait until one day before you want to go or even the day of departure but then the risk of a train being full (especially couchette/sleeper) is higher of course.
To support the free information and the forum on railcc, please be fair and buy your official Interrail pass via our railcc partner link: [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux]
Thank you! :)
