Any guesses for what chaos awaits us on this train?

Edit to add: This is not the ticket, it was printed alongside the actual ticket, after asking for seating preferences.

    It means you can sit anywhere you want and you’re not stuck in an assigned seat.
    You get on the train early you can have any seat you want.
    This seems like the exact opposite of infuriating.

      Any seat you want

      Provided that someone doesn’t have a specific seat booked.

        They only issue as many tickets as seats. They just don’t tell you what seat to take.

              The only way to understand their comment is that they think it’s a ticket that they only printed as many as they have seats. Otherwise its a non sequitur as it doesn’t explain the purpose of printing a second slip that says you don’t have an assigned seat.

      In my experience it should be called general seating or something along those lines if it isn’t for a specific reserved seat.
