Delayed or cancelled train? What changes for passengers from October

RFM11 September 2026 at 15:40

From October, train passengers will have more alternatives when facing delays, cancellations or missing connections due to problems with the rail service.

The new rules promise to strengthen passenger rights in service disruption situations, offering more compensation and assistance options.

Passengers will be covered by these changes regardless of the rail company, provided the transport is subject to the applicable European or national regulations.

These changes come within the framework of legislative updates aimed at improving consumer protection in the rail transport sector.

FlixBus has again postponed the start of its operations at the Sete Rios Bus Station in Lisbon, changing the expected date from September 24 to September 29. According to the Rede Nacional de Expressos (RNE), the manager of the infrastructure, the delay is due to the German carrier not yet holding the mandatory licenses to operate legally at the terminal, despite having been granted access in May. RNE highlights that it has made efforts to accommodate FlixBus's requests, but stresses that competition in the sector must be transparent and regulated by the same rules for all operators.
