Deutsche Bahn launches European election sale
To mark the European election weekend, Deutsche Bahn has announced that it will sell 500.000 train tickets at significantly discounted prices.
From June 6 to 9, passengers can buy reduced-price tickets for trains between Germany and 16 other European countries; Belgium, Denmark, France, Italy, Croatia, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, Slovakia, Czechia, Ukraine and Hungary.
Tickets are available for as little as 19,90 euros with the company’s Super Sparpreis Europa ticket until midnight on June 9.
What are the limitations of the Deutsche Bahn Europa deal?
However, if you’re considering booking a spontaneous summer trip, there is a catch.
Only journeys scheduled from September 2, 2024, will be included in the deal. The discount will apply to journeys between Germany and the 16 countries scheduled between September 2024 and February 2025.
Additionally, since the Europa deal applies to Super Sparpreis tickets, Deutsche Bahn’s cheapest ticket option, once they have booked passengers cannot change their journey or refund their ticket should they decide to cancel their trip.
