I'm running into an error using https://www.sncf-connect.com/app/home/search, no matter what I enter in. The last 3 times I took the trip (pre-COVID mind you, and maybe not booked a whole month in advance), that was the price.

edit: works in Chrome, here are the trips exactly 1 month from now (August 6): 65€ 6am, 65€ 7:13am, 116€ 7:39am, 116€ 9:36am, 116€ 10:39am. A month and a half or two months advance seem to be required now, how bad we think it is is up to debate but it's definitely worse than when I commuted regularly, 2009-2011.




Not going to deny it’s less easy that it used to be but SNCF desesperately needs to extract some values from their business customers. Apart from a couple of lines of which Paris-Marseille isn’t they are always losing money on trip.

Also if you struggle with SNCF Connect which is terrible my advise is to use Trainline instead. It’s not as good as it used to be when the French part was still CaptainTrain but it’s miles better than the SNCF app.


> use Trainline instead

Yeah this was already the wisdom in the days of voyage-sncf.com. Some things never change.
