SNCF launched a flash sale of 450,000 TGV INOUI tickets with discounts of up to 45% to mark the 45th anniversary of the high-speed train. The promotion, running from October 6 to October 8, 2026, aimed to increase occupancy during low-demand periods in November and included domestic French routes as well as international connections to Italy, Spain, Luxembourg, Brussels, Geneva, and various German cities.

Following these promotions, SNCF Voyages Italia focused on promoting high-speed TGV INOUI connections between Italy and France to coincide with the autumn cultural season in Paris. The service provides daily direct round-trip trains from Milan and Turin to Paris, featuring amenities such as Wi-Fi, a multimedia entertainment portal, and a bar car.
