I love Spanish Railways

I never thought I will have such big trouble to buy train tickets online. Some hints for anybody who has not managed it so far:

  • Do not even try to register in English, it will fail for some obscure reason.
  • Once the thing has failed, it has so broken javascript that you have to reload it.
  • Relax your spam filters, otherwise you will not get any mail from them.
  • If you have only one credit card, you might be lost. Mine did not work and I had to use another one.
  • Be patient, when your third payment attempt ended nowhere.
  • If you are not sure whether you booked or not, you can find existing bookings under Mis viajes / Impresión.

But finally I have the tickets from Caceres to Barcelona. I'm going to manage rest on the way.
