Should you wish a little more space or privacy on your journey through Russia, it may be that you would like to book a first class ticket. Unfortunately, first class tickets are limited in number and very popular meaning that they are not always available.

If you would like space and privacy, and you are unable to book a first class ticket, it is possible to book two second class tickets; both the upper and lower-berth in a cabin to approximate the feeling of first class. If you are planning to travel as a group of two, and both of you purchase two tickets, you would be afforded sole use of the cabin that you have booked.

If you are interested in booking your tickets in this fashion, you can do so through our rail ticket booking panel. When selecting two tickets ensure that you have selected one upper and one lower-berth place, and then enter all your details for both places along with a note in the comments section informing our travel specialists of your intention.  

Alternatively, contact our travel specialists directly for further assistance.
