FlexibleServiceProperties (Subcomponent of SERVICE JOURNEY)

FLEXIBLE SERVICE PROPERTIES describe additional properties of a FLEXIBLE or demand responsive (DRT) service. They can be attached to a SERVICE JOURNEY to make it flexible.

In NeTEx, A SERVICE JOURNEY may either embed its own FLEXIBLE SERVICE PROPERTIES, or reference a shared instance. EPIP requires each SERVICE JOURNEY to embed its own instance.
