The Happy Business Race for the long holidays began in the morning on Wednesday March 12, with the sale of SNCF tickets. But is it really interesting to be one of the first buyers?
Have the French already reserved their summer vacation? “Tonight when I come back to Grenoble, I will look at what can interest me”Entrusts a traveler at the Gare de Lyon on Wednesday March 12. Sales have been open since 6 am. And the prices go up quickly: at 7 am, a Paris avignon on August 14 cost 97.70 euros. At 11 a.m., it had increased to 116.70 euros.
The first arrived were the first served. “”I have already looked, it doesn’t seem really interesting to me. So I take my tickets when I want“, Slice a man. Especially since sometimes, anticipating is useless. Little prices are not valid on the highly requested days. At the opening of sales, this Wednesday morning, some TGVs were therefore displayed at the maximum rate.
For some destinations, the SNCF will also have to face competition from the Italian company Trenitalia.
