Deutsche Bahn führt Last-Minute-Tickets ein; ab dem 9. Mai jeden Samstag und Sonntag für Reisen in der darauffolgenden Woche zum Preis von nur 6,99 erhältlich

I’m quite interested to see how this improves the farebox for Fernverkehr. D-Ticket is so ridiculously good for last minute travel that I will change my destination based on where I can get to from my home, even with the time penalty being on a slower train (looking at you Teppich RE Berlin – Dresden). This might tempt me back to Fernverkehr for extra trips especially if it can match or even beat Flix prices.
