The EU plans 1 ticket for all Europe

128

Train trips in Europe should be easier. The EU-Commission suggests new rules. Buying tickets is often hard now. People need many different tickets. This shall change. Soon there is 1 ticket for the whole trip. This is called Single-Ticketing.

All train companies must share their data. This includes time-tables and prices. Big sales websites must show tickets from other firms. A person plans a trip from Berlin to Barcelona. They book everything in 1 place. This saves time and money.

Rights for passengers improve too. Someone misses a connecting train due to delay? The person then takes another train for free. The train company pays for food during long waits. The company also pays for a hotel if needed. The EU states and the parliament must agree to these rules.
