FAQ – Your Questions, Our Answers
When is the best time for a group trip?
Our alex trains have recently been operating at high capacity. For larger groups, we recommend traveling between Monday and Wednesday, as these days generally have fewer passengers.
Which ticket is right for our group?
Our customer service team will be happy to advise you on the best ticket for your group. The right choice depends on the size of your group, the planned route, and the desired flexibility. We’ll help you find the most suitable ticket.
How do I register a school trip?
Number of students with the Germany Ticket
Please let us know how many students already have a Germany Ticket so we
can avoid duplicate ticket purchases.
Number of students needing a ticket
Indicate how many students require a ticket so we can provide the
appropriate number.
Age of the students
Please tell us the age or age groups of the students so we can offer
suitable options or rates.
Preferred travel time
To find the best possible connection for your group, let us know your
preferred travel time.
Persons with reduced mobility
If people with reduced mobility are traveling, we’ll gladly inform you
about accessible options.
Will I receive a binding confirmation for my group trip?
Our fleet is based on the service levels originally ordered by the Bavarian Railway Company and cannot be expanded at short notice. Additionally, platform lengths limit train length and thus seating capacity.
Although we cannot guarantee a binding confirmation for a specific connection, we will do our best to find the best possible solution for your group. We will assess the circumstances and suggest the optimal travel time to make your journey as comfortable as possible. Occasionally, we can provide additional capacity, depending on availability, platform length, and lead time.
⚠️ Regulations during the track closure between Regensburg and Schwandorf
Due to construction work by DB InfraGO on lines RE 25, RE 23 and RB 23, no group reservations can be accepted for the Regensburg Hbf – Schwandorf section during the line closure from 15 June until provisionally 22 August, because the replacement buses cannot guarantee transport for larger groups. Replacement transport with direct and all-stop buses will be provided. Direct buses will also run between Regensburg Hbf and the site of the State Garden Show in Furth im Wald.
Group travel registrations are still possible on the following routes:
- München – Regensburg
- Schwandorf – Furth im Wald
You can find more information about the replacement transport in the timetable changes. For individual questions regarding travel planning, please contact our customer service at 089 / 548 88 97-25.
