Trains seat reservations
Some friends and I were traveling from Slovenia to Austria by train recently. It was a busy, so naturally we had reservations, and naturally, we were involved in a dispute regarding said reservations. Eventually, our seats’ challengers left when the conductor told them that they were in the wrong car.
From this experience, we deduced that train reservations were inherently flawed, and spent a bit of the remaining train ride coming up with a simple, easy to implement solution to remove a bit of ambiguity from train seat reservations.
