What the actual duck? Buying train tickets Madrid–Cordoba from #Renfe on the web, one gets put on a bloody waiting list (page) for five minutes, before one even sees what connections there are? (To check how full trains might be, and to potentially buy a normal ticket.) Spain seems to be really weird and backwards for train travel in many senses, not just #Interrail. How can other as large train companies (DB etc) handle these things so much better?
And when you think you have made a purchase (plain ticket for the wife, to save on #Interrail travel days), did the things correctly with your bank identification app to approve the card purchase, return to the #Renfe site, this useful message.
Some person on Tripadvisor wrote seven years ago (!): “The #Renfe website is woefully underpowered because it does not have the capacity to handle the number of people who want to use it.” Oh well then, can’t expect things like that to be fixable in just a few years.
