TCDD announced discounts for Tekirdag-Derince and Van Lake ferries.
TCDD’s 20% discount for ferries will mainly support international rail traffic both to/from Europe and Iran.
The new tariff valid from today (1st of July 2016) is as follows:
| Tekirdag-Derince Ferry | Van Lake Ferry | |
| Standard loads | 13,6 €/to | 9,6 €/to |
| RID 2 loads | 28,8 €/to | 12,8 €/to |
| Empty run of private wagons | 4 €/to | 5,2 €/to |
| Brand new wagons, safety wagons | 13,6 €/to | 10,4 €/to |
| Empty containers | 7,2 €/to | |
| Private transport | 13,840 € | 4,420 € |
RID 1 and 7 must be carried by private transport.
If this new tariff can be supported by regular departures of ferry, some of the Turkey-Europe train traffic may shift to Asian side.
