Romania’s state-owned railway passenger carrier CFR Calatori will add more than 8,000 extra seats during this year’s Easter mini-break.

The extra seats will mainly be added to trains going to popular destinations such as Brasov, Sibiu, Cluj-Napoca, Constanta, Iasi, Satu Mare, and Timisoara, the company announced.

Passengers can purchase train tickets online at Cfrcalatori.ro, from the ticket vending machines installed in train stations, from the ticket offices in train stations, from CFR travel agencies, and via tour operators.

CFR Calatori also announced that all the CFR travel agencies will be closed on April 17, the second day of Easter, except the agencies Carrfeour Colentina and Titan in Bucharest, and Iulius Mall in Iasi.

The Stefan cel Mare International Airport in Suceava, in north-eastern Romania, will also add additional flights on several routes for the Easter period.
