In particular, the <strong>SNCF<\/strong> and its subsidiaries operating between Paris and Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and Switzerland. Good news for <strong>business travellers<\/strong> with travel requirements. One major exception is the UK, where <strong>Eurostar<\/strong> still only operates one return flight a day from London to Paris and Brussels. \"\u00a0<em>La <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/royaume-uni-quarantaine-juin-20200610.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fourteen weeks set up on the British side<\/a> does not currently allow for a more ambitious transport plan<\/em>\" says Jean-Baptiste Guenot, Director of Europe and International Development at Voyages SNCF. On the other hand, the forthcoming lifting of the four-week period for visitors to Spain should enable SNCF to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/france-espagne-tgv-juillet-20200619.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">schedule 2 return trips in the near future<\/a> per day to Barcelona, the first from Paris, the second from Marseille.<\/p>\n<p>Since 9 June, <strong>Thalys<\/strong> is running at 20% capacity, with 1 daily return flight to Dortmund and 9 return flights from Paris to Brussels, 2 of which continue on to Amsterdam. The next increase in capacity is scheduled for 12 July with 50% of capacity with 2 return flights Paris-Dortmund and 7 return flights to Brussels, including 4 to the Netherlands. In terms of services <strong>lounges<\/strong> Thalys Paris and Brussels remain closed to the public and the offer of <strong>restoration<\/strong> in Thalys Premium class suspended until 30 August. While there has been no confinement in Switzerland, the reopening of the Franco-Hellenic borders is allowing <strong>Lyria<\/strong> to operate 50% of its usual transport plan until 3 July, i.e. 4 return flights Paris-Geneva, 1 return flight Paris-Lausanne and 3 to Basel with a connecting flight to Zurich. Confident, the carrier will then increase its capacity to 70%, with a total of 13 round trips between France and Switzerland (including 6 rotations to Geneva, 5 to Lausanne and 4 to Zurich). \"\u00a0<em>French customers are rapidly returning to our routes<\/em>\" Fabien Soulet, Managing Director of TGV Lyria, is delighted.\u00a0<em>a proactive policy<\/em>\u00a0\"with the aim of achieving at least <strong>85% of traffic<\/strong> in the last quarter of 2020. Finally, on other international routes, SNCF is currently planning 2 daily Paris-Milan return services, and 4 Paris-Luxembourg return services.<\/p>\n<h3>The return of business passengers expected in September<\/h3>\n<p>To reassure their customers, railway companies have developed <strong>health protocols<\/strong> based on thorough and regular cleaning of trains, and requiring passengers to wear masks and observe barrier procedures. Above all, they feel they have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/train-force-crise-covid19-20200424.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a card to play against the airlines<\/a> very hard hit by the Covid-19 crisis. And to highlight the reduced carbon footprint of the trains, the centre-to-centre connections and the useful time for working on board. And Lyria insists on its new fleet equipped with the <strong>wifi<\/strong>accessible on 97%. \"\u00a0<em>In the recovery expected over the next few months, rail is even more of a reference solution than air travel.<\/em>\" adds Fabien Soulet, who intends to do his utmost to \"\u00a0<em>to regain customer confidence<\/em>\" . And particularly business travellers. \"\u00a0<em>Le <strong>business traffic<\/strong> is currently low due to the <strong>teleworking<\/strong>and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/visioconferences-salle-comble-20200326.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>videoconference meetings<\/strong> <\/a>and employees on short-time working<\/em>\" . This situation is not unique to Lyria, and is likely to continue throughout the summer for rail operators. \"\u00a0<em>The resumption of professional mobility is scheduled for September under terms to be defined.<\/em>\" adds Jean-Baptiste Guenot. The most difficult situation remains that of Eurostar, with one train a day and \"\u00a0<em>few customers<\/em>\" .<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Europe's railways have been gradually reopening since 15 June, with transport plans on the increase until the end of the year.
