ÖBB and SNCF stopped operating their night train service on this line – which was not launched until 2023 – in mid-December last year.
Today, European Sleeper is ready to resume service between the French and German capitals from March 26.
Trains will depart from Paris on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, and from Berlin on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
The journey takes approximately 18 hours and departs from Paris at 6:03 p.m. CET, arriving in Berlin the next morning at 9:03 a.m. CET. The reverse journey departs from Berlin at 6:31 p.m. CET and arrives in Paris at 10:58 a.m. CET.
The train will also stop at Aulnoye-Aymeries in France, as well as Mons, Brussels and Liège in Belgium. From July this year, the train will also stop in Hamburg.
Prices start at 79.99 euros for a one-way shared cabin, and female-only compartments are available. It is also possible to book a private cabin from 279.99 euros.
