Its decision was published at the end of the week in the EU's Official Journal, and welcomed by the Minister in charge of the dossier. \" <em>M. <strong>Cl\u00e9ment Beaune<\/strong>Minister for Transport, welcomes the decision of the <strong>European Commission<\/strong> which declares the draft decree implementing the ban on airlines when there is a <strong>an alternative of less than 2.5 hours by train<\/strong><\/em> \". At first sight, a simple decision, summed up in an equally simple press release, which is even in line with the Citizens' Climate Convention. In reality, the situation is more equivocal - falling short of the Convention's recommendations, even going as far as train journeys of less than 4 hours...<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"596\" height=\"299\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/cbeaune.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-137477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/cbeaune.jpg 596w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/cbeaune-300x151-derived.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 596px) 100vw, 596px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"wp-block-varenne-link-block\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/suppression-lignes-domestiques-validees-20210412.html\/\" data-id=\"108235\">Abolition of short domestic routes approved by the National Assembly<\/a><\/p><\/aside>\n\n\n\n<p>Above all, there is no mention whatsoever in the press release from the Ministry of the <strong>connecting flights of less than 2.5 hours<\/strong>one of the main sticking points in the dossier<strong><em>, <\/em>prohibited in form but not in fact.

It goes on to say: \" <em>Now that France has abolished these two derogations, concerns that they could lead to discrimination and distortion of competition between air carriers have been removed. <\/em>\". The derogations would therefore be abolished and the risk removed. But then again, it's not all that simple...<\/p>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"wp-block-varenne-link-block\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/airhelp-environnement-perturbations-vols-20230927.html\/\" data-id=\"157871\">The environment, a collateral victim of flight cancellations<\/a><\/p><\/aside>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, the <strong>passenger route <\/strong>that would today be marked out by a <strong>a \"sudden\" modal shift from air to rail to get to Paris CDG airport <\/strong>has toned down the measure for the time being. The main lines that are due to be cut will escape this decision, at least for a while. \" <em>Air links <strong>CDG-Lyon, CDG-Rennes and Lyon-Marseille <\/strong>do not currently fall within the scope of the measure because one or more of the conditions set out in Article 1 of the final draft decree have not (yet) been met <\/em>\"states the European text. \" <em>However, the French authorities indicate that these three routes may fall within the scope of the ban <strong>as soon as a rail operator has improved the conditions of its services<\/strong> (mainly in terms of<strong>opening hours <\/strong>proposed) \"<\/em>he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the <strong>CDG-Bordeaux <\/strong>and <strong>CDG-Nantes<\/strong>they<em> \"according to the explanations provided by the French authorities, do not and will not fall within the scope of the measure without a structural improvement in rail services. <\/em>\". In short, there is nothing to prevent the abolition of these air services, which could theoretically be replaced by rail in less than 2.5 hours. If it's not Paris-CDG, it's not Paris Gare de Lyon... The merit of the European decision is that it paves the way for a new roadmap in terms of<strong>intermodality<\/strong>. This is a roadmap that will now have to be passed on to SNCF and the rail companies, who need to extend the range of choices on the French rail network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"wp-block-varenne-link-block\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/european-travel-commission-annee-2022-20220223.html\/\" data-id=\"121563\">The European Travel Commission predicts a good year for European tourism in 2022<\/a><\/p><\/aside>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>French plans to ban domestic flights when trains offer an alternative in less than 2.5 hours have been approved by the European Commission.
