Overview

The TGVmax subscription service is a fantastic option for those aged 16-27 who frequently travel with TGV and Intercités. At just €79 per month, this service allows unlimited travel, transforming weekend escapes and holiday plans into effortless adventures. However, many users have expressed frustration over the increasing difficulty of securing seats, especially during peak travel times like Friday and Sunday evenings. This has led to the development of automated solutions to help make the booking process less cumbersome.

In response to these challenges, a new project aims to streamline the seat booking experience through automated alerts, allowing users to focus on planning their travels without the stress of manual seat hunting. This adaptation speaks to the needs of younger travelers while addressing the frustrations that have arisen with the current booking system.
