That’s Not Gonna Work!


The possible itinerary I came up with for my November trip has an obvious typo returning from Wrocław on the 26th.  I have no clue why that didn’t jump out at me right away.

Also, checking for what I had really meant to write, I discovered that EuroCity 54 and 57 will be direct trains between Wrocław and the Berlin Hbf which actually works better.

Given my current mobility issues, I might have to skip the Meeting C++ and code:dive conferences, in which case I might be able to fly in and out of Berlin instead of Frankfurt; and the only hassle will be getting between the airport and the central train station.  I can decouple the plane and train legs by spending one night in each direction at a hotel near the Berlin airport, which I did for my Varna trip; so I know the drill.

We’ll see…

Update:  2024-07-12:  I think I have my Wrocław trip figured out.  I was going to give it a quick mention in another post I’m planning; but I mentioned the trip in a message to an Amtrak-related e-mail list; so I stuck the new itinerary out on my website.  Folks who click on the first link above will see the latest and greatest, and some of what I wrote herein might not make any sense.

    There’s a direct train connection from BBI airport to Berlin Hauptbahnhof.

    wereatheist:  I assume that, by “BBI”, you meant Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER), not Biju Patnaik Airport in India. 😎

    Yeah, I figured that there’d be at least an S-bahn or U-bahn.  I’d still plan on spending the night in Berlin to decouple the plane from the train so that I wouldn’t have to worry about a missed connection.
