One journey, one ticket. 🚆 The European Commission has proposed new rules to make seamless travel across Europe a reality, especially for regional, long-distance and cross-border rail travel. The proposed measures aim to: 🔹 make it easier to plan and book journeys involving multiple operators 🔹 strengthen passenger rights for the entire rail journey 🔹 ensure fairer and more transparent competition between ticketing platforms and operators With a single ticket, passengers could benefit from better assistance, rerouting, reimbursement and compensation in case of missed connections. This is a step towards a more connected, accessible and passenger-friendly European transport system. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/djECqVfY
