Hi!
We are going to travel as much as possible by train or in some instances by bus. When we are on the train we may have our excess luggage as we will be transferring from one area to another.
My queries come from worries as I am traveling with my Mom. We are not going to have huge luggage, but we will definitely each have a rolley and a pack. It may be awkward loading and unloading from the trains.
? My question's are: regarding travel by train and one airport and timing question at the end.
1. Where does the luggage store? Inside the carriage or in a compartment below?
2. Is there problems with theft of luggage?
3. When one enters the trenitalia does one have to lug the luggage until two seats are found?
or are you given a seat or car #?
and then put the luggage close to where you sit?
I have done the train in France and was surprised that there was very little storage and you just found a spot close to your seat to put your luggage and most was out in the aisles.
Any other Train Travel Hints would be appreciated.
ALSO: When one departs the plane, heads to baggage, bus and train……. about how long does this process take?
We will be arriving into Florence from Frankfurt on Lufthansa, we will bus to Firenze SM Novella, catch the next train to Lucca hoping to arrive into Lucca by 1730 on Sept 8, 14.
Have a wonderful day!
