Cannot find train to Florence on days in January

I’m trying to book trains Rome ↔ Florence (and also Bologna ↔ Florence) for weekends in January 2026—specifically:

  • Fri Jan 9 to Sun Jan 11
  • Fri Jan 16 to Sun Jan 18
  • Fri Jan 23 to Sun Jan 25

But no train tickets are available at all on those dates. Meanwhile, other dates through March 2026 show normal schedules and ticket availability. I checked both Trenitalia and Italo Treno and all other train websites.

Has anyone else encountered this? Does anyone know whether the schedules are simply not yet published but will be added later, or if there’s planned construction or maintenance shutting down train service on those weekends?

I don't think they released the winter timetable eff. after Dec. 14, 2025.
They do construction and maintenance work at night, they wouldn't interrupt service on the Naples-Milan high speed route for entire weekends.
Just check later next month, although it is usually released in November.

Actually the whole Milan to Naples fast line has a backup in the old line, in case of works or sudden interruptions fast trains are routinely rerouted. Services may be delayed but not suspended for works.
