Today the European Commission is publishing the #PassengerPackage - legislation to fix railway ticketing

"Our vision is very clear," says Tzitzikostas. "One journey, one ticket!"
If only it were to work like that

There is a SINGLE TRANSACTION obligation to get rights - see https://transport.ec.europa.eu/document/download/fc019827-59c9-400f-a530-4d7d21957a7d_en?filename=COM_2026_233_Proposal_on_the_protection_of_passengers_with_single_tickets.pdf
BUT that means that IF you have some ticket already - a Klimaticket for example - and want to add something on to that, you are left without rights

@jon Have you already found a part in which is written that a OSDM purchase might not necessarily considered as a single commercial transaction?

Basically in this #PassengerPackage the Commission seems to have in mind someone who takes a train once a year on holiday, not people who ever do this even semi regularly.

@jon Couldn't you just have a 0-cost ticket as part of the full through ticket?

@wrzlbrnft I think one purchase transaction, purchasing multiple tickets via OSDM, is *included* and covered.

@jon SNCF is going to find a loophole to just make it impossible to use the "one ticketing transaction" for their trains nevertheless.
