To celebrate Franco-German friendship, German Transport Minister Wissing and his French counterpart Beaune came up with something special:
30,000 free Interrail tickets per country for travel in Germany and France for young adults between 18 and 27.
Codename: “Passe France Allemagne”
However, many things went wrong when the Interrail passes were distributed.
In the following, we want to take you on a journey through the stages of the not-so-well-implemented ticket and show you how you could still get a pass after registration ended.
And while we’re on the tracks, we’ll also have a look at a security breach in a similar project at the EU level.
Implemented by the same agency - which left the data of about 245,000 registrations almost unprotected on the web.
Please stand clear of the doors – we’re departing! 🚄🚃🚃🚃🚃
