Half a million train tickets are now available for €19 maximum in a new flash sale for Ouigo services by French train operator SNCF. The sale began yesterday and ends today (September 7).

SNCF is selling 500,000 tickets at low prices, for journeys to more than 50 destinations across France, including Bordeaux, Lyon, Chartres, Dijon, Rennes, Nantes, Nice, Montpellier, Marseille, Paris, and Avignon.

The journeys must be made between September 12 and December 10.

Only single journeys (or the ‘outward’ journey for a return) tickets are covered by this flash sale. None of the tickets will be sold for more than €19 each.
