With the introduction of the Deutschlandticket, which can also be used nationwide on all local public transport (ÖPNV) since May this year, the 29-euro ticket was abolished again in Berlin. The new state government had started with the election promise to reintroduce the offer. Franziska Giffey, Senator for the Economy and Chair of the BVG Supervisory Board, thanked the VBB. She said the Senate Department for Economics was in talks with BVG "so that the 29-euro ticket can be relaunched as soon as possible - probably in April 2024."
