Christmas may feel far away, but for those who like to plan ahead, today 1 October is the key date: tickets go on sale on Rail Europe for SNCF TGV INOUI and Intercités (14 December to 7 January), covering festive trips to Paris, Strasbourg, Lyon, Luxembourg, Fribourg and Brussels.
It’s the perfect moment for travellers to lock in their holiday journeys — whether it’s a Christmas market weekend, a New Year with family, or simply avoiding last-minute stress. With demand running high during the holiday season, booking early also means securing the best fares and even travelling in style in first class.
