The launch of the Good Night Train, a European Sleeper service from Brussels to Venice, experienced notable issues including a delayed departure and subsequent changes to its destination. Passengers were informed via email that the train would no longer reach Venice but terminate in Innsbruck due to bureaucratic hurdles in Italy. Despite the setbacks, many travelers embraced the journey over the destination, symbolizing a growing appreciation for night travel across Europe. Founders Chris Engelsman and Elmer van Buuren are aware of the operational difficulties but remain committed to improving the service.
The inaugural European Sleeper service from Brussels to Venice faced numerous problems, highlighting the challenges the company encounters with communication and infrastructure.
Despite delays and changes, many passengers find value in the journey itself rather than the destination, embracing the experience of nighttime travel across Europe.
Chris Engelsman and Elmer van Buuren, founders of European Sleeper, are determined to improve services amid obstacles like staff strikes and bureaucratic hurdles.
The journey reflects a broader trend of rejuvenating rail travel in Europe, where many travelers are open to overcoming logistical challenges for the adventure.
