It’s the worst experience I have ever had traveling by train. I went from Yerevan to Gyumri and from Gyumri to Yerevan. The first I was informed that I cannot buy tickets online in this age, then found out that tickets are available only the same day of travel. This was just the bugging. The next day when we should come back from Gyumri to Yerevan, we bought tickets 6 hours earlier and came to station 1,5 hours earlier from departure to have the possibility to sit, but after it was clear that in the train for 61 passengers sold tickets for about 120 people and we can hardly sit with 4 people at the sit for 2. These are the days of pandemic and there was no air to breathe, I’m not telling about social distance. Don’t do my mistake, don’t travel with UKZD.
