Observed service A carrier record shows this named operator serving this named pair, and we carry that through unchanged.
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
Every figure above was computed for Ajaccio to Caen on September 10, 2026: 1105 km of route against 1073 km in a straight line, 16 services a day, 2 operators, a cheapest fare of €86.14, and 4h 58m door to door on the fastest mode.
