The majority of EU citizens find it as easy to travel within the EU as within their home country, according to a Eurobarometer survey on Passengers' Rights which the European Commission published on 1 July 2005. Of the 24 000 people surveyed, 69% agreed that travelling to other Member States was easy. Over half of the respondents would be willing to purchase services from transport companies established in another Member State. When asked to identify deterrents to travelling within the EU, lack of information and high prices were the primary responses given.
