One Euro Train Languedoc-Roussillon
Posted: Sun 17 May 2015 10:48
Trying to get the One Euro train from Beziers to Perpignan on various dates May & June but none available. I am trying to find if this is normal?
This is an excerpt from the next P-O Life....
Much excitement accompanied the introduction of the one euro train early this year. Travel to anywhere within the 5 regional departments of the Languedoc Roussillon (Hérault, Gard, Aude, Lozère, Pyrénées-Orientales) for just one euro? Cant be bad!
However, actually grabbing a ticket before the daily allocated allowance is exhausted requires a whole lot of patience.
Tickets are available ONLY via Internet at www.train1euro.fr, bookable for a designated train, and can be printed or displayed on smart phones, Ipads etc. Once you are on the site, look for the red box, on the right hand side, marked 'Valider'. This will only show when there is actually a 1 euro ticket available - and either somebody is getting up very early to bag all the tickets, or they are in very limited supply! Bonne chance!
