Pro Bahn Criticizes Deutsche Bahn's New Cancellation Fees

The passenger association urges Deutsche Bahn to maintain free cancellations for flexible fare tickets until the start of travel.

Deutsche Bahn plans to implement higher cancellation fees starting mid-December.
New fees include a 10 euro charge for cancellations made seven days before travel.
On the day of travel, cancellation fees will increase from 19 to 30 euros.
Pro Bahn argues that these changes hinder flexible travel planning and increase financial risks.
Passengers who purchase flexible fares value the ability to adapt travel plans without penalty.
