General high-speed rail travel tips
- Real-name ticketing applies: your passport (or ID) must match the name on the ticket, and is checked at security and boarding gates.
- Arrive with a buffer before departure — large stations require time for security screening and walking to the platform.
- Seat classes typically include second class, first class, and business class on high-speed services; sleeper trains offer soft/hard sleeper berths.
- Checked baggage is not standard on high-speed rail — luggage travels with you, so pack within cabin-friendly limits.
