]]> With so many interconnected cities and countries, Europe is an easy continent to travel, especially by train. Still, there can be large price differences between the different trains and routes available. Here are some of the most affordable train routes in Europe that you can take on your next vacation.

Madrid, Spain

Operating on Renfe, Spain’s main rail system, Madrid’s Metro is affordable while providing plenty of access to the city and its most popular tourist hotspots. The Tourist Ticket, starting at €8.40, grants you unlimited daily use of the metro system.

Italy

If you’re looking to travel throughout Italy’s historic cities, then the Trenitalia Pass, which costs €129, is for you. The weekly 7-day pass of unlimited public transportation, which costs less than $30, is also a versatile option.

Germany

If a trip to Germany is on your bucket list, then the Deutschlandticket for €49 per month is perfect for you. This ticket allows you to enjoy unlimited travel throughout the country on all local public transport.

]]> Have you heard about the new low-cost high-speed train service that the Spanish RENFE service will be offering starting on April 6th, 2020?

This service, known as AVLO, will take advantage of Spain’s high-speed rail infrastructure but provide a more basic and scaled-down version of its AVE (normal high-speed) operation in a bet that consumers will flock to the low prices and fast speeds of a budget high-speed train.

Believe it or not, this isn’t the first low-cost, high-speed service that is being offered. France’s SNCF company has a service known as OuiGo that operates on a similar model.

Making its debut in 2013, OuiGo has shown that a low-cost, high-speed model can be successful. Reducing costs by using secondary stations, offering fewer on-board service, and selling tickets exclusively online, SNCF has achieved huge ridership numbers with their new low-cost plan.

Spain’s new service will become the second low-cost train service in operation, taking advantage of a new system that looks to capitalize on a plan similar to the one implemented by low-cost air carriers, which has been hugely successful.

If Spain’s AVLO service becomes a roaring success like France’s low-cost, high-speed option has been, look for more and more countries with strong rail networks to implement this idea in the future.
