Having public transport available without having to worry about buying a ticket just because of the subscription you already have anyway is far better than interrail
This ticket is not for long distance travel but for shorter distances - it will be an extension to interrail and not a replacement
In Germany the ticket is only for regional trains - if you want to go from Berlin to Munich you’ll have to pay money to get there in 4 hours or spend the whole day travelling in 12+ hours
That’s for member states to implement, not the EU then. EU wide would mean freedom of movement, and if you couldn’t get over a border with an EU wide ticket, it’d be shit.
Interrail or eurail has been around for decades
Interrail allows you to train everywhere in Europe EXCEPT your home country.
It’s clearly meant to be used for traveling and not regularly.
On the other hand, a pass like that is meant for people that use train regularly in their home country.
It’s two very different products.

and that’s contradicting my point how?

how would that be an alternative to interrail?
What did you mean by an EU wide ticket?
EU wide for regional transport
That’s for member states to implement, not the EU then. EU wide would mean freedom of movement, and if you couldn’t get over a border with an EU wide ticket, it’d be shit.
So what? It’s for young people only. The kind that find your username “funny”. Just a meme bro!
Well, thankfully for other young people too. Leaves out the other part of the population. So this is welcome.
EDIT: I stand corrected, adults can also buy. Starting at 194€ for the right to travel four days a month in more than a single country.
There’s no age limit to interrail
