Where can you travel on one Air India ticket? All across Europe and UK, soon
What if we told you that you could have one plane ticket that would allow you to travel to 100+ cities and towns all across Europe and the UK? Not only that, but with that ticket, you can travel by plane, train, and even bus. Sounds like a dream come true, right?
Yes, Air India has now come up with an idea for such a ticket that can make your travel journey a little more hassle-free.
What
India's flag carrier, Air India, has recently collaborated with AccesRail, an International Air Transport Association travel partner, and now it will allow travellers to travel much more easily.
This 'intermodal' agreement allows Air India travellers to easily reach more than 100 cities and towns across Europe and the UK using just a single ticket.
This partnership offers passengers the convenience of using bus and rail services while retaining the same baggage allowance provided during their flight.
Where all can you travel?
Now, even though many details are awaited, according to reports, here's a list of countries that have been reported as part of the arrangement: Austria, Belgium, Germany, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy, and the United Kingdom, utilising the entry points of Amsterdam, Birmingham, London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Milan, and Vienna.
Apart from this, with the intermodal ticket, you gain access to various bus and train services, including Avanti West Coast (UK), National Express (UK), Trenitalia (Italy), ÖBB Austrian Railways (Austria), SNCB Belgian Railways, and Thalys (Netherlands/Belgium).
Now, if you're wondering how can it happen? Here's the thing. AccesRail has its own something called 'designator code', thus making intermodal journeys on a single ticket possible.
