Booking
There is often no differentiation between Caledonian Sleeper services and seated services on the National Rail booking system. First ScotRail offers an online booking service which specifically shows its sleeper services, from the syndicated National Rail database.
Tickets may also be booked at principal staffed railway stations in Britain, some travel agents and by phone. Last-minute passengers are sometimes able to buy single tickets from staff by the train on the night if berths or seats are still available.
Ticket prices vary depending on the demand expected for the train and time of booking. Standard Class offers cheaper fares if booked in advance of the date of travel and subject to availability. Railcard discounts apply at the network standard rate of 34% in Second Class seats, and at a lower rate on tickets with berths since the Railcard discount is available on the travel portion of the ticket only.
Standard Class cheap berths, termed "Bargain Berths", may be booked in advance and are allocated in very limited numbers to some services, from £19. These are web-based and no physical tickets are issued: it is necessary to print an e-ticket.
Passengers from Europe can book at their home railway station, as all berths are in the European Reservation System (EPA).
