RegioJet: Disambiguation
RegioJet is NOT the same as České dráhy (ČD), the Czech state railway, or ZSSK (Slovak state rail), though RegioJet competes directly with both. RegioJet is also distinct from LEO Express, another Czech private operator, and from ÖBB Railjet, despite the similar name. RegioJet refers specifically to the operator of the Student Agency group run by Radim Jančura.
