Overview
- SNCF will begin selling tickets on March 12 for travel between July 5 and August 31, with some routes available for booking through December 13.
- Early booking is recommended to secure lower prices, as dynamic pricing causes ticket costs to rise closer to departure dates.
- International routes, including destinations like Switzerland, Spain, Italy, and Germany, are now open for booking, with varying availability periods based on partnerships.
- The SNCF's pricing strategy, including dynamic yield management, aims to maximize revenue while balancing demand and supply constraints.
- The company's profitability requirements, driven by the French state, contribute to higher ticket prices compared to competitors like TrenItalia and Renfe.
