Apparently, you can bunch several virtual "carnets" on a single device: https://www.bonjour-ratp.fr/aide-contact/?question=peut-on-utiliser-seul-telephone-valider-titres-plusieurs-personnes Vous pouvez créer plusieurs cartes Navigo dématérialisées sur votre iPhone ou Apple Watch, autant que de...

Ha, I think I understand where the 6pm stuff comes from. Do you still have your paper ticket? Can you show a picture of the ink stamping left on it by the barrier? (if it's not too faint) there should be a series of thick hatches and some grouped numbers or letters

My bad, I thought that the paper-based t+ had been discontinued, but indeed it is still on sale, indeed with a time limit of 90 minutes (which appears to be the reason for the fine you received).

You were fined just after 11pm at Chaussée d’Antin. At what time did you pass through the barriers at Gare de l’Est? What was the last barrier you passed through before being stopped, and at what time? edit - additional remarks: - the €2.5 tickets you bought are not day tickets but singles...

It remains to be seen whether uttering “goiedag - bonjour” upon entering a carriage is an address to the general public or a conversation. (I’m not trolling). I seem to remember that the outraged passenger took the matter to the permanent language control commission, who will probably clarify...

I mean, in the long run, Volkswagen and Porsche recovered from their associations with Nazism. Porsche (the man) wasn't even properly de-Nazified.

There are still a handful of them in Paris! https://maps.app.goo.gl/dXWoe2PHAvfy3mjK7 https://maps.app.goo.gl/wmH5AbxhZmohs77U9

In a similar vein but with opposite characteristics, ultra-thin stationery intended for air mail - “Par Avion”.

I am always amused at the use of the “corporate media” expression, considering that we are witnessing the grotesque show of an oligarchic tycoon who bought himself his own media platform and who gets closer day by day to an unnerving crossover between Julius Streicher and a Bond villain. Also...

Tarascon in France used to be a triangle station (and there was an additional local line penetrating the triangle prior to WWII) until the 1950s, but not anymore.

That person must have seriously failed the attitude test to end up with a fine. While SUGE agents are not always the most accommodating, I seriously doubt that they fell on him like birds on a prey and immediately pulled out their tablet to issue a fine.

Coradia Liners have more upscale interior fittings than Regiolis trainsets (and a slightly different nose, for that matter) with 2+1 seating in 1st class. This page has pictures of the interior: https://spirit-track.overblog.com/2017/03/travail-mon-1er-train-en-coradia-liner.html I personally...

Between Esbly and Crécy, the line follows a river (the Grand Morin) that has a sheer number of mills and was once a painter’s favorite - Toulouse-Lautrec, Corot, van Gogh… On a fair spring day, it certainly is a nice getaway from Paris.

Nothing too unsalubrious about the Line 11 extension or the Line 14 extension for that matter, but not really the best spots for a leisurely drink indeed. Les Lilas, where I live, its quite nice by itself, has bars and places to relax, but probably not the most enticing for a tourist. Here's a...

You're a little bit early for the opening of the first cable car between Créteil and Villeneuve saint georges, unfortunately (it should take place sometime this year). The new RER E stations at La Défense and Porte Maillot are quite impressive.

As noticed by signed, the previous T+ ticket was never valid on trams 11/12/13. No, that's most probably not the goal, not concerning single ticket users anyway - the cows being slightly milked are the Navigo mensuel/Intégrale subscribers. If anything, Île-de-France Mobilités' 2025 budget...

My God, as if landing at "Paris"-Vatry wasn't enough of a punishment, you are suggesting walking 45 minutes in openfield Champagne countryside... While you are at it, you can technically walk to Milano-Linate, although the brand new metro link has no surcharge. Excellent advice on Vencie...

Don't know whether it was the world's highest claim, but it certainly was France's most onerous - in March 1976, a young lad was watching a football match with his bunch, had a few drinks too many, and on his way home with his ancient Traction avant, managed to skid and stall it on the...

I do not think that single "billets origine-destination" tickets for these "limbo" stations outside IDF but served only by Transilien/RER trains are covered by the €2.5 flat fee, and this is almost guaranteed to cause (admittedly very local) problems at stations such as Chars, Boigneville, etc...

Why do you think that the direct debit must be set from a French account? Because they use the historical French acronym "RIB"? The terms & conditions seem clear to me, they will accept SEPA mandates. https://www.iledefrance-mobilites.fr/conditions-generales-de-vente-et-dutilisation-cgvu Le...
