MODERATORS
If we had an inter-european ticket it could be more expensive and allow you to take high speed trains. It would be silly to give it the same restrictions that the German ticket has.
Yeah I'm just saying there are already flight journeys within Germany that could be replaced by train and there the same problem applies. I wasn't suggesting that a hypothetical European ticket would have similar restrictions.
