He Government will allocate up to 170 million euros to finance the discount on train and bus tickets purchased by young people between 18 and 30 years of age to travel next summer, so much for spain as for Europa.
The amount, approved this Thursday in the Minister council extraordinary, will facilitate the movement of young people this summer both through the Old Continent through the European Interrailas well as in Spain with the medium and long-distance rail connections and the state-owned bus lines.
Concretely, 70 million will be allocated to high-speed and long-distance services, 60 million for bus lines, 30 million for Avant and medium-distance trains, and 10 million to finance the Interrail discount.
The discounts approved by the Government last Tuesday include a 50% discount for the Interrail passthat in the case of trips by within Spain it amounts to 90% of the price of train tickets for medium and long-distance routes and also to travel on the buses that depend on the State. Also, the trains Avant will have a 50% discount and also high-speed services, although the latter with a limit of 30 euros.
Government estimates suggest that the discounts affect 12.5 million trips made by young people in Spain during the summeras well as doubling the sale of Interrail passes.
of these discounts Young people born between 1993 and 2005 who purchase single or return tickets to travel between June 15 and September 15 will benefit.
