Comment on Under-22s in England should get free bus travel to access work and training, MPs say
yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 1 week agoLong-distance trains aren’t covered by the ticket, only regional trains.
For example, the trip Munich -> Berlin would take around 10-11 hours with 5-6 different trains you need to catch. If you paid for a long-distance train it would be 4.5 hours with no changes.
