![]() ![]() That this line of inquiry has now come out as a done deal is incorrect and we regret this. One of the lines of inquiry is excluding a number of ICE trains per day towards Germany during this period for Interrailers. The busiest period is from mid-June to mid-August. Therefore, the carriers are investigating all possibilities so that everyone who wants to travel by international train can do so comfortably and safely. We would like to run more trains immediately, but that is not possible in the short term. For the upcoming summer, NS and DB want to prevent these undesirable situations and offer as many travellers as possible a pleasant train journey. In 2022, NS and DB together transported a record number of passengers during the summer period, leading to overcrowded trains and even passing by stations, resulting in uncomfortable train journeys for passengers.

The zones are clearly marked on the RER map (see link below). ![]() The Paris Metro system is largely confined to just zones 1 and 2.ĭisneyland (Marne-la-Valee) station is in zone 5. Zone 1 is where nearly all hotels are and where all the city centre sights are located. ![]() Paris uses a zonal system with six circular zones radiating out from the centre. The ticket offices at places like Charles de Gaulle Airport have helpful, competent English speaking attendants well used to overseas travellers not confident in what they need and are for the most part remarkably patient.
