wolf7 Posted February 18, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Hi we would like to arrange our own Flam train tickets but on the Flam web site they are all sold out,there is another site but the tickets are not available to next month,we will be arriving in June and it looks like there is only the Brittania in port,does any one know if tickets are usually available to purchase to avoid the ships expensive excursion. Thanks wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare gnome12 Posted February 18, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I won't comment on whether you should book in advance or not, but there is availability every day in May https://www.visitflam.com/activities/flamsbana---the-flam-railway/?referrer=4081#booknow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted February 18, 2019 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2019 We visited Flam last September and booked tickets independently for the railway. There was a similar problem that initially the tickets were all shownas sold out, but in fact they don't go on public sale until, from memory, around 3 months beforehand. That would be why there is availability in May but not June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belgian fry Posted February 19, 2019 #4 Share Posted February 19, 2019 We are planning on taking the train up and cycling back down, so I have written to the café (where you hire the bikes) about the lack of train tickets. I'll let you know what they reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallasm Posted February 20, 2019 #6 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Book you tickets at This site if any available for the desired departure - most train s are sold out in the morning on busy days - at nsb.no you can only purchase 90 days in advance.

Belgian fry Posted February 20, 2019 #7 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Thanks Hallasm. Looks like we're out of luck and all the trains that could work for us are sold out on 10 June. Will need to find something else to do 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will need to find something else to do 😞 keep looking nearer the time often the ship block books a whole batch of tickets and releases them back if passenger demand not as high as expected this happened to us a few years ago and a large party on our roll call obtained tickets about 2 months out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
