A new high-speed train service linking Paris and Berlin was launched on Monday – just in time for the Christmas travel season. Joint operators SNCF and Deutsche Bahn say they hope passengers will see it as a “greener” alternative to flying.

Sure it’s a bit longer than air travel - but not as much as it sounds at first glance. People forget to include the time you have to spend in each airport, not to mention time getting to and from the airports whereas the train stations are both much closer to the city centers. Also not dealing with the hassles of air travel like baggies of toiletries and security checks is worth a lot to me.
I’d take 30min between CDG and Paris over 1h of DB just stopped in the middle of the tracks without explanation

Well I wish I could argue that one but I haven’t had any good luck with DB for at least a year or two myself
