Unlimited travel in Germany for 9 euros this summer: Approved, also valid for tourists
At a time when fuel prices are rising, car prices are skyrocketing and a worldwide cost of living crisis is raging, an unrivaled practice has been launched in Germany. In the country, the application of unlimited monthly tickets for 9 euros (approximately 156 lira) has been approved to encourage the public to use public transport.
The German government approved a monthly public transport ticket offer of 9 euros yesterday. The ticket, which will be released in June, will be used in local and regional transportation throughout the country; It was stated that it can be used on trains, buses and trams. However, it was stated that it cannot be used for long-distance bus or train services, and B IC, EC and ICE trains are exempt from the application.
It was announced that trains marked with RE are regional and they are part of the package.
IT WILL BE AVAILABLE IN SUMMER
On the other hand, the €9 public transport pass will be valid for June, July and August as part of the government's energy aid package, encouraging people to use public transport this summer.
The government reported that it has invested 2.5 billion euros in the project and that each card is valid for the month it was received. For example, a card purchased on June 14 can only be used until the end of June, not until July 14.
On the other hand, although the card is designed for local people, it can also be used by tourists.
On the other hand, Germany's national railway Deutsche Bahn has added the pass cards to its website. It was announced that the cards will go on sale on May 23.
