What to Know When Taking the High-Speed Train to AIX?
Taking the train is very simple, but here are a few helpful tips to make your journey even smoother: 1. You Can Bring Large Luggage If you’re traveling with large suitcases, we recommend booking a seat on the first level of the two-level train for easier access to luggage storage. When purchasing your ticket, you’ll also specify the number of suitcases you’re bringing. 2. Be Ready Before Your Stop Stop times are brief, so have your luggage prepared in advance. Passengers typically begin gathering near the doors 5–10 minutes before arrival at their station. 3. Manually Open the Doors Train doors do not open automatically. When the train stops, press the button to exit. 4. Bring Your Own Snacks & Drinks Some trains have a food and beverage cart, but not all. To be safe, bring your own refreshments for the journey. 5. Arrive Early Plan to arrive at least 20–30 minutes before boarding to allow time to find your platform and get situated.
