*The Sparschiene offer applies to travel with MV 246/247. The number of available tickets is limited.

**FME ticket prices depend on the day of purchase and the selected route. Purchasing a 2nd class ticket three or more days before the journey is more affordable than purchasing a ticket one or two days before the intended journey. FME tickets cannot be issued on the day of travel. The tickets are valid for two days, and they are non-refundable and non-exchangeable. Seat reservation is not included in the ticket fare. Interruption of the journey is not allowed.

We recommend purchasing international tickets in advance at our train station ticket offices.

On-board the train, only full price tickets up to border stations can be purchased. Discounted tickets and special offer tickets valid for particular routes or trains cannot be purchased on-board.
