A new report by environmental campaign group Greenpeace says that air travel within Europe is up to 30 times cheaper than traveling by more sustainable trains.
And in Paris it could cost you an extra €60 or something if there’s random ticket check and you can’t provide that you have the ticket. As a tourist I’ve seen this myself in Bir-Hakeim Station. Please keep your ticket, don’t throw it away!
That sounds pretty reasonable to be fair. How else are they gonna check your ticket? Though I get how it would be frustrating if there were no ways to book your ticket from your phone or pc, not sure if it’s the case for Paris.
Hi. As someone who are not from Paris or Europe all i could think is that everyone who ride the train will already bought their ticket as they will need it to pass the turnstile, so i often throw the ticket away after checking in at the turnstile.

In most of Europe there are no turnstiles. You can board without any barriers and tickets are randomly checked on the train or at the station
