Hello, My husband and I are travelling to Portugal next month and we are having difficulty obtaining reserved seats are trains. In the past we have always been able to get a reserved seat in other countries. Is Portugal first come, first serve? Are the trains packed in the summer? Thank you.

You are using 'reserved'. I do not know what countries you have been to in the past but I will be surprised it is possible these days. Perhaps you mean purchase and of course you can purchase in advance, if you want peace of mind, but as far as I recall only thirty days in advance - http://www.cp.pt/cp/displayPage.do?vgnextoid=87cbd5abe2a74010VgnVCM1000007b01a8c0RCRD&lang=en
