Thankfully there are loads of trains Malmö - København, so maybe in København it will still connect?

[titia@toot.community]

@brunogirin @jon yes, it seems like the theme from "Mission Impossible" belongs right up there on the playlist!

[pepijn@mastodon.online]

Don't underestimate DSB either! Let's hope they employ their special skill of departing late for no reason at all!

@jon

[jon@gruene.social]

@Pepijn BTW, is there any better tracker in Denmark than Rejseplanen?

[pepijn@mastodon.online]

@jon Don't think so. Rejseplanen is the only that hasn't given me false hope by at a critical moment not updating in time.

@sorenhave I think Rejseplannen "is it" for Denmark?

[margitbirken@mastodon.social]

@jon Hihi, ich lebe seit 12 Jahren in Schweden und pendel nach Kopenhagen - diese Seite kannte ich noch nicht. Danke für den Tipp!
Und heute morgen hätte ich dir gerne in Malmö mal Hallo gesagt, aber ich musste schon den 7:05 Zug nach Kopenhagen nehmen.
Gute Weiterreise

@jon @acb I am surprised that you don't have a mobile data plan with lots of EU roaming included. But maybe such are not available at a reasonable price in France?

(Personally I almost never bother looking for WiFi in trains when in the EU. And the Nordics and Baltics don't even count as being abroad for my operator, so unlimited data.)

[grlodi@mastodon.social]

@tml @jon @acb can’t answer for Jon ofc but FWIW French mobile plans are amongst Europe’s cheapest surprisingly enough. For reference, I pay about 15€ for 150GB domestic and 25GB abroad and this plan is just “ok” but not a a particularly good deal.

@jon
beautiful

Next leg of #LongestTrainEU is on

[pepijn@mastodon.online]

@jon well well well, aren't we looking smug!

[markiejiang@mastodon.social]

@jon yayy the odds that DSB might turn out to be the less problematic one (knock on wood)

[kobold@orthographieanarchist.de]

@markiejiang @jon I took DSB trains in the last, never let me down, but maybe it was just, they did not want to disappoint me

[niklasnisbeth@social.data.coop]

@jon Velkommen! Hope you enjoy your stay, make sure to try the salty liquorice

[kobold@orthographieanarchist.de]

@jon Is this the Copenhagen - Hamburg line?

[sebwilken@mastodon.social]

@jon Stockholm–Malmö might seem like a rather short trip for a night train, but it's a train I'm actually using a lot for my travels from and to Finland. Timetable works well with the ferries, and with Interrail, it's really good value for money.

The sleeper reservation includes a luxurious breakfast buffet at a hotel in Malmö, which is great. Tip: If you don't have time for that, you also have access to the SJ Lounge at Malmö C where light breakfast is served.

[pepijn@mastodon.online]

@kobold They let me down every three months or so. It's usually DB that saves the day with their absolutely massive and high-frequency network
