Noun

through-ticket (plural through-tickets)

1. a ticket that is a single contract for a multi leg journey (e.g. on multiple transport networks) that guarantees passenger rights and protections in case of disruptions on one leg of the journey, e.g a missed train.

   On a through-ticket you're legally entitled to later onward travel if a delay means a missed connection, but with separate train-specific tickets the risk is yours.
