Platinum Service on The Ghan and Indian Pacific is always very heavily booked and can appear to be booked out for many months in advance.

Changes and Cancellations do happen often though. Let us know when you wish to travel and we will place you on our Platinum Cabin Waitlist and let you know as soon as one becomes available.

Yes we have waitlists for Gold Superior, Gold Twin and Gold Single Service Cabins too.

"My husband and I were disappointed to find out that there weren't any cabins available on the Indian Pacific during our recent trip to Australia. We didn't have a flexible schedule and decided to contact Great Trains to see if it was possible to get on a waitlist in case there was a last minute cancelation. Good news for us - a cabin became available several weeks before our trip and they let us know right away. They took care of the booking and sent us all the information so we just had to show up at the railway station in Sydney.  It was a highlight of our trip."
