🇬🇧 English

The planned rules aim to make it easier for travellers to find, compare, combine and book journeys across rail, air, road and water transport through online platforms. They target gaps in today’s ticketing market, where many platforms do not show complete travel options, especially for rail, and where customers often cannot buy all needed tickets in one place. The changes would affect online travel platforms, rail operators, other transport providers and passengers. The practical goal is to improve transparency, support fairer competition in ticket distribution and make rail and multimodal journeys easier to book, including more use of single rail tickets.
