Funny thing about the UK now is the tickets are a RIP but after 15 mins you start to get refunds, it’s 100% after an hour. And as someone who commutes, with the delays, it works out about £1 a journey to work 40 mins away
What even is this headline? I suppose that means half of Europeans say they will travel **less** by train in the next 5 years? Half more, half less. Oh my, what phenomenal insight.
In Germany, I’ll probably keep traveling as much as possible with public transit instead of by car, as long as the “Deutschland Ticket” (Germany Ticket, fixed price of currently 58€ per month for ALL public local transit in the whole country). But I fear them rising the prices again and again until it’s too expensive again.
Read an article on the BBC about a direct line between London and Geneva, without having to switch trains in Paris. That would be fantastic but I think it said 5-10 years away.
I’m the other half 🛫
As a German, I’m going to use the train a lot less.
My line was been failing/under maintenance for about 9/12 months in the last year. They told me, they are not gonna do anything about until 2027 at the earliest. It will be under construction for a long time thereafter.
Right now it functions on time maybe 1/10 times, probably fewer, for my daily commute.
I just purchased a car.
And I plan to eat more vegetables and exercise more in the next five years.
I would if there was a speedy option to travel from the eastern part of Norway to Costa Blanca in Spain. Also without having to buy tickets from 5 different railroad companies, and change trains 10 times.
Already you can go from Oslo to Copenhagen by one bus in 8 hours. And one is still in Scandinavia.
To go by plane takes less.
I will exercise more, eat better and procrastinate less.
I would love to but a train ticket in the uk is £150 for a few hours journey.
The intent is there. But price to convenience ratio is just disgusting compared to air travel.
I’d travel more by train if rthe fares were cheaper.
I’d travel more by train if there was something similar to premium economy (or almost business) on planes.
Last year was best ever recorded in Poland, this year outcome is even better so in 5 years it should be even better.
Not happening. A lot of parts in Lithuania are not covered by rail, or is faster by car or bus anyway.
Moar sleeper trains pls
And I’ve planned to lose five kilos until May. Well, here we are +3 ..
Must be western europe… in Croatia train is on average 2 times longer travel time then car. If nothing breaks or goes wrong ofc…
I really hope to do so, because “low-cost” airlines are scamming their customers as they let you pay for every luggage you have except the clothes you have one. Unfortunately from Rome there’s no international connections except for night trains. I’d have to change in Torino (for France), Milano (for Switzerland), or Verona (for Austria/Germany)
The issue is: there’s plenty of high-speed trains in Europe, such as FrecciaRossa, TGV or AVE, but their networks are not connected to each other, so trains are not competitive with planes for international routes
