Help for Swedish(Or Scandinavian) types to get to EuroFurence 16

[Stripe Kazama]

There's a nighttrain, departing from Malmö Central and arriving in Berlin.

Between the 24th of August and the 29th of September, the train is operated and departs from Malmö Central Wednesday - Sunday and it departs from Berlin Every Monday and then from thursday 'til sunday.

I mean, take the Sunday train, arrive there on Monday morning and then spend a day in Berlin and explore. I'm sure there are lots of cheap hostels in Berlin. And well, there goes daily trains from Berlin to Magdeburg pretty often (I've looked that up) so it's just to take an early train on the tuesday and then you can head to EF.

The prices for the Berlin Night Express

If you want to share with five other people in a bed-compartment with 6 beds it's 450 swedish kronor

If you want to share a bed-compartment with just one peep, it's 900 swedish kronor.

450 SEK(Swedish kronor) = 331 DKK (Danish Kronor) = 44.50 EUR = 384 NOK (Norwegian Kronor)

900 SEK = 663 DKK = 89 EUR = 769 NOK

Sounds like a great idea.

But I have some concerns about the cost of a hotel in berlin (especially near the train station) and train from Berlin to Magdeburg (€37, according to bahn.de)
If one were to do this, a late train to Magdeburg the same day would probably be easier (and cheaper).

My current plan is a more direct route.
ICE from Høje Taastrup -> Hamburg, ICE -> Wittenberge, RB -> Magdeburg.
At an estimated €49 with the "Europa-Spezial Dänemark" Offer. (Perhaps less, if they allow stacking youth rebate (Wildcard) of 25% on top of that)
The same route back is €89 with the same offer.
Each way is €115,40 without the offers. (Meaning on the way back, if no stacking of rebates are allowed, the 25% is preferred, at €86,55)

It is however, all depending on how my finances are at that time... I'd much prefer traveling with some fuzzies and having some fun on the way there, instead of going by myself.

*Pulled the numbers off of bahn.de, using tuesday for departure and monday as return.
(Also, yay for accidentally hitting refresh and having to write the whole post all over again -.-)

Just dug around bahn.de. The RailPlus Youth rebate, unlike furries, is not stackable ^.^

Edit: Meaning the difference in cost is so small, it's not worth mentioning.
Ninja edit: I forgot that I need to get to Malmö too... which seems to be... not cheap.. So it'll end up costing ~150 DKK more each way...
Double ninja super edit!!!: Greyhound bus does it cheaper at 70 DKK each way ^.^

Meh, forget my random ramblings...
Found out I could do it a lot cheaper with IC/ICE if I leave sunday afternoon.

Sorry.
