Comparator
Following the health crisis and the global pandemic we went through, and are still going through, Oui.SNCF had ruled in favour of refunds across all its trains.
The cancellation and refund conditions for Oui.SNCF tickets returned "to normal" as of 13 September 2021.
To note:
At Oui.sncf, most major French cities (if not all) are served by the comparator, as long as they have a train station or a bus station!
So you can travel to cities like Angers, Perpignan or La Rochelle.
What's more, with the addition of the carpooling service, coverage has become even more extensive!
It's the same at Tictactrip: thanks to our partnerships with over 200 companies, we can get you criss-crossing France!
Plus, thanks to carpooling and intermodality, you'll be able to go to places you've never heard of before. For that, head to your favourite comparator to compare and combine your routes. 😉
Thanks to the TGVs, Oui Sncf buses and flights offered on the site, you can travel anywhere in Europe with Oui.sncf, whether by train or by bus!
So you could for example travel to Amsterdam with Thalys or to London on a Eurostar train!
At Tictactrip, we cover more than 15 European countries, that's 4,800 cities!
You have plenty of options for a weekend getaway in a European capital and to play the globetrotter!
What do we mean by intermodality? According to Wikipedia, intermodality is "the use of several modes of transport during the same trip".
For example, if you want to make a Oui Sncf Strasbourg-Brussels trip, you could very well do the first part of your journey by train (to Nancy, for example), then continue by bus!
At Oui Sncf, you can travel using several different types of transport: bus, train, carpool and even plane!
However, the concept of intermodality doesn't apply, except when a destination isn't served by one of the four modes of transport mentioned above (in which case, another mode of transport fills the gap).
Back to our Strasbourg-Brussels example: with Oui.sncf, it will be impossible to make this trip other than by TGV InOui or with a bus company (but not both at the same time).
However, thanks to Tictactrip, it's entirely possible to take a train and a bus to reach Brussels in a flash!
You'll therefore have more choice in your search and you'll be able to save money by finding the cheapest route!
In-app purchases, quite a strange term for a comparator! However, it's a key feature for a website.
Let's take an example: you want to pay for your Oui Sncf Paris-Lyon trip on your favourite comparator.
There are then 2 types of comparators: those that redirect you to the carrier's website to pay what you owe, and those that let you pay directly from the site.
At Oui.sncf, no stress! Indeed, you can pay for your ticket directly on the site! Just choose your favourite route and go through all the steps until payment!
And at Tictactrip, how does that work? Well, this feature is in the pipeline! Of course, we're working hard to make it available as soon as possible. ;)
For a transport comparator, showing real-time prices is very important! Indeed, you wouldn't want your Oui Sncf Paris-Angers trip, shown at €25 at 1pm, to jump to €45 two minutes later... We understand!
At Oui.SNCF, this bad joke shouldn't happen since the comparator's teams are large enough to keep a close watch! So don't worry, routes will always be shown at the correct prices.
Rest assured! At Tictactrip, we're completely transparent about this and we adjust prices in real time!
No surprises: the price shown is exactly what you'll pay in the end... What's more, it adjusts according to price changes from the carriers!
To make the most of your trip with the best deals, here's a list of Oui Sncf discounts / Oui Sncf promo codes:
Large family travel: Oui Sncf offers ticket discounts based on the number of dependent children (from 30% up to 75%!)
We recommend checking on the Oui Sncf "my account" website to see if you're eligible for this card.
Oui Sncf Youth Card: for people under 27, Oui Sncf offers a card with discounts of up to -30% in France and Europe, along with exclusive last-minute deals!
To enjoy vouchers: entering competitions can let you win vouchers, or simply sign up for the Oui Sncf newsletter, a code might just slip in!
You've probably guessed it, but among the types of transport offered by Oui.sncf, we obviously find... the train!
However, this isn't the only mode of transport available on the site. Indeed, in addition to comparing train tickets, you can also compare bus, plane and carpool tickets
At Tictactrip, we offer you the very best of ground transport: bus, train and carpooling.
You can compare and combine your routes to find the best trip at the best price. We're also committed to finding you the least polluting route to help protect the planet!
Unfortunately, flights aren't offered on your favourite comparator; we've chosen to put our expertise to work on ground transport only.
OUI.sncf, what is this thing again? It's really easy to get lost with all these Oui-somethings!
But don't worry, it's not that complicated! Basically, it's just a name change! You know Voyages-SNCF.com? Well, since 2017, it's Oui.Sncf
As its name doesn't suggest, Oui.Sncf isn't SNCF itself. In reality, it's a travel agency affiliated with SNCF to sell its tickets.
That's why you may have noticed you could book train tickets but also plane tickets, rent cars, carpool, or even book accommodation on their platform.
Oui.sncf also offers the services of 400 airlines, 500,000 hotels and 30 car rental companies. The site is proud to welcome over 16 million unique visitors per month.
Voyages SNCF was, until very recently, the only operator able to sell SNCF tickets.
However, Tictactrip can do it too! What's the point, you ask? As always: to offer you the best routes at the best price!
To set itself apart from Oui Sncf, Tictactrip offers you the tickets that are truly the cheapest, the most eco-friendly, and the best suited to your journey! Our smart route combinations are OUR added value!
As for train names: all TGVs are gradually being renamed TGV inOui (you may have heard of it), except Ouigo trains, which remain SNCF's low-cost offer.
As for Ouibus (now BlaBlaCar Bus) and the short-distance carpooling service Klaxit (formerly IDVROOM), or car rental between individuals with OuiCar, these are separate services.
Do things make more sense now? 😊
