I took the Prague-Krakow, and return, night trains a couple of times many years ago and am considering doing it again (from Krakow) on a trip this May-June. I’m a solo traveler and based on prices I’ve seen for the sleepers, I’d either book 1 bed in a 2-berth or pay to be solo.
I’ve done a lot of reading on this and understand there’s a couple providers (Euronight Chopin, Regio jet and Leo Express) but when I enter nearby dates (e.g. mid January) to get a sense of times, etc. the night train doesn’t come up as an option. I’ve used links from the man in seat 61.
Any specific advice on what I may be doing wrong, or general comments from travelers who have done this night trip recently?
Thank you!

Sorry, failed to point out that while I am finding a Regiojet night train, it’s not direct/have to change in Ostrava, so don’t think that’s the one im looking for.

I took that night train in October 2018. It was then, and I see it listed now, as IC (Intercity) 407 Chopin:

I booked the Single Sleeper Deluxe with en-suite toilet, sink and shower. I arrived in Prague in time to drop off my luggage at my hotel and join a 10 or 10:30am city tour.
