Trenhotel Lisbon to Hendaye

Hi, does anyone know if this is operating again?

I don't know it it is up and running, but what an adventure!

Ask the folks at Capitaine Train. Whoops, they have become Trainline. Have been very responsive to my emails and the pricing has, for me, always been competitive or the cheapest. I admit it has been a couple of years since I last used them, tho.

I put in a date 2 weeks from now and got the response:
We’re sorry!
We couldn’t find any results for your search.

Here are the most common reasons why this happens:

1. The tickets you’re looking for aren’t yet available for booking.
2. The tickets exist but we cannot yet offer them on our platform.
3. There are no trains that service this route.

Ummm, so does that mean they aren't operating yet . . . . ?

"The Lisbon-Madrid and Lisbon-Hendaye lines, both operated as night hotel-trains, have been suspended since mid-March, when the borders were closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

In May, Renfe explained that it did not plan to resume its train-hotel services in the short term, which resulted in losses for the company of 25 million euros in 2019, and that it would give priority to lines with higher occupancy rates."

In: "Portugal says that Renfe does not want to resume international lines for now", La Vanguardia, 8 September 2020.
