What people who got the top bunk on the train should not do: 3 forbidden things (4 photos)

When traveling by train, many people do not hide their disappointment when they find out that they will have to climb to the top bunk all the time. But it happens that these same people disturb the comfort of those riding below.





We talk below about what rights those who are unlucky enough to ride from above cannot claim.

Demand that the bottom shelf be emptied

When purchasing a train ticket, the passenger acquires the right to the seat for which he paid. Usually one seat is allocated per passenger, which is indicated on the ticket. The very fact of paying money for a ticket is clear evidence that a person will occupy the seat allocated to him.

In this situation, a person cannot use space that other people have acquired on the same grounds. Therefore, if another passenger asks to change seats, you can safely refuse. This is not an obligation; you can change if you want.



Place luggage under the bottom bunk

The tickets usually indicate where your luggage should be placed - on the third shelf or under the first. Not everyone follows this rule and often tries to crowd out the owners of the lower shelves, who are supposed to place their luggage under the “bed”. By mutual agreement, everyone can place things where it is convenient, but if there is any inconvenience, you should remember the rules.





Store your belongings on the bottom shelf

The same principle applies to the rule that prohibits placing your belongings on another passenger’s shelf. However, you can always politely ask if you can hang your jacket on the bottom hook, and you can always find a way to politely refuse.

If certain difficulties arise with your neighbors, then first you still need to try to come to an agreement. No one wants to spend their journey in a quarrel. If this does not help, then you should call the guide and find out the situation with him. In the end, you can simply book your desired seat in advance.
