Hi moderator,
We wish to use the Rail Europe website (www.raileurope-world.com) to book our Swiss Pass and seat reservation of the Bernina Express(BE) so that we can use the promo code to save € 20. We have chosen the 2nd class Swiss Pass and then wish to reserve seat of the BE. It only has the choice on "Flexible fare on 1st class". Does it mean that we do not have to reserve the seat on 2nd class, or we cannot reserve the seat using 2nd class Swiss travel pass? The reservation on Rail Europe website does not allow us to choose the seat.
I realize that I can choose the seat via www.rhb.ch/en/panorami c-trains/bernina-express. This website has a statement, "The coaches direction of travel are without guarantee." I saw most window seats on the L side of the 2nd class were taken on Coach 3. It looks like that people thinks that L side seats are better. How many coaches BE usually have ? The reservation on 1st class on the same train is not available. I have a little concern if the Coach 3 is the last coach.
Is BE seat reservation is "mandatory?". Do we have to reserve seat for the return trip from Tirano to St. Moritz?
Thank you
JP
