I liked the transportation, super comfortable and accessible for everyone. I'm sorry I paid a lot for the ticket when I could have bought the family ticket, though. There was no such option on your website.

Despite a train strike and some disruption I arrived at Milan Centrale only 15 minutes or so later than expected. Instructions at the stations needed some help in translation but commuters were all friendly and helpful.
