National weekly or monthly package - Review and Conclusion

The national weekly or monthly package is a great way for passengers to save money when they need to take the train several times a week or month.

National Weekly or Monthly Packages - Frequently Asked Questions

What's the Best SNCF subscription?

The best train pass subscription for you depends on your age and how often you travel. If you travel a lot for work, the SNCF‘s Carte Liberté is a great way to avoid the sometimes exorbitant cost of last-minute bookings. If you’re traveling with your family for personal reasons, you may be better off with the Avantage card (Jeune, Adulte or Senior), offered at a more reasonable cost. If you need to travel several times in one week or month, then you should opt for the national weekly or monthly package.

Which SNCF season ticket or card should I choose if I take the train every day?

The choice of subscription depends on several factors, but the Max Actif+ subscription may be an interesting option, especially if you have regular business trips. It offers reduced-fare travel 4 to 5 times a week, with 450 free trips.

Does the SNCF offer a subscription for unlimited TGV travel?

There is no SNCF season ticket that allows unlimited travel on the TGV. However, the MAX Actif+ pass offers the possibility of reduced-fare travel 4 to 5 times a week, with 450 free bookings.
