On the TER, “it is the regions that set the prices,” said Christophe Fanichet.
No price hike to be expected for train travelers. “In 2022, we will not increase the price of train tickets on the main SNCF lines”, announced the CEO of SNCF Voyageurs, Christophe Fanichet, on franceinfo, Monday, November 22. On TER, “it is the regions that set the prices”, has recalled Christopher Fanichet.
“In 2020 and 2021, we have not increased our prices, I would even say that we have lowered them”, he asserted. The year 2021 was marked by the desire of the railway company to simplify its price range, often criticized as opaque, with in particular the merger of loyalty cards into one.
Christopher Fanichet estimated that this new Advantage card won a “Huge success. We sell 8,000 a day, twice as many as last year at the same time. There are already three million French people today who have it in their pocket.”
This annual card, which costs 49 euros, allows you to obtain capped rates “until the last minute”, provided that there are still places. Christopher Fanichet also welcomed the fact that the French have already been 2.3 million to have “planned their train ticket” for the Christmas holidays. “This is 15% more than in 2019”, before the health crisis, he noted.
