Calling it a MiniSuite is putting lipstick on a pig. It's just an enclosed section with a fold-down table, which doesn't convert to day mode.
Do you think it would be appropriate on a train leaving after 8pm and arriving before 8am the next morning? Then day use would not be an issue.Calling it a MiniSuite is putting lipstick on a pig. It's just an enclosed section with a fold-down table, which doesn't convert to day mode.
Sure, I have nothing against it for people who are limber enough to wriggle in there. I'm just saying promoting it as a suite, mini or otherwise, is stretching. More accurate modern terminology would be a "capsule" or a "pod".Do you think it would be appropriate on a train leaving after 8pm and arriving before 8am the next morning?

I see folks describing an itineraries like - London->Amsterdam (afternoon Eurostar); Amsterdam->Vienna (NightJet); Vienna -> lots of different points east (morning services); total length of trip about 24 hours. 3 trains, but with lots of connecting options.
Pricing is projected to be like couchette (4 bed) rather than compartment -> cheaper. See Overnight sleeper train accommodation: couchettes vs. sleepers - Rail Europe Help for details on services.
