Just one issue - 1st class tickets say 'no specific seat" the economy seats show the allocation. I assume 1st class we have an assigned seat. Otherwise, the booking process was fine.

Purchasing

Purchasing, email confirmation, and printing tickets was smooth and easy. Waiting on a Verification Code was a little bit of a wait and uncertainty, but all is well that ends well. Thank you.

Confusion about business and first class booking

Provided pertinent information needed for booking. The only drawback was not having an opportunity to select our seats. There was a bit of confusion between first class and business class, although we didn’t get a chance to book business class. Can we upgrade on the train?

The site was designed practically

The site was designed practically, which made it easy to use. The descriptions for the pricing options were adequate. They could have been more descriptive with better photos, but I was still pleased to use the site. After booking, I received my tickets within one hour.
