Platzkart will rise in price by 9.2% from October 1: coupe and SV indexation will not affect

Long-distance travel will become more expensive from early October. Tariffs for tickets for shared and reserved carriages, as well as for cars with seats, will increase by 9.2%.

The new prices will be effective from October 1, 2026. The change will affect the regulated segment of passenger transportation in long-distance trains.

At the same time, passengers of the coupe and CV do not fall under this indexation. The cost of trips in such cars is formed by a dynamic pricing system and can vary depending on demand, date of purchase and other conditions.

The current increase continues a series of indexations of railway tariffs in recent years. In 2022, they increased by 4.3% and 6.5%, in 2023 - by 8.1% and 10.75%. In 2024 and 2025, growth was 11.6%, and in early 2026 - 11.4%.

The October changes will not only affect passenger traffic. From October 1, rail freight tariffs will increase by 8.5%.

Thus, passengers who plan autumn trips in a seated car, shared or seated cars, should take into account the increase in tariffs when calculating road costs.
