Good to know

If you want to use long-distance trains (IC/EC) with your monthly pass or VRB season ticket, you just need to pay the IC/EC surcharge. Since this is not a VRB ticket, this surcharge can only be paid to Deutsche Bahn.

  • Monthly pass, Student monthly pass: €26.20
  • Season ticket, Student annual passes: €22.00 monthly
