On longer journeys like The Canadian or The Ocean, we recommend that a sleeper option is booked. With only a limited availability on each train, especially the Prestige Sleeper Class, early booking is essential to ensure availability. The options are detailed below and vary by train. Please contact us for additional availability and to check availability for your departure date.
