Summer EBTM09: General information

[BaliBennie]

16 Euros for a single train ticket to Vienna from the airport is indeed expensive.
If you Phaseolus want to pay for that, that's fine. It is also good of you to mention the price of the ticket here.

But it is only normal that people are looking for cheaper ways to get to their destination.
So don't get annoyed when people are trying to save a little money that you obviously have plenty of.

If you are a party of two peoples, who are travelling together, another option for you could be the The 8-day Climate Ticket! Simply punch one strip for each person in the group for one day (not 24 hours!).

Because I really need to know everything starting from the Big Bang (and 8-day ticket seems too good to be true), I have few questions. And yes, I did read Wienerlinen web pages...

Does this ticket cover u-bahn, s-bahn AND busses?
When we get into a bus does someone want to see our ticket?
"Simply punch twice" -If first one of the day is a bus, do we do "it" there or before stepping into the bus somewhere?
I have traintickets Vienna-Bratislava, do they need to be validated in andvance?

Thats all for now, I'm sure I'll get plenty more before our plain leaves tomorrow morning

Does this ticket cover u-bahn, s-bahn AND busses?

yes, it cover's all public transport in the city of vienna except the city airport train (cat) and express busses to the airport.

When we get into a bus does someone want to see our ticket?

only control-persons want to see it, but i don't think that you'll meet one of them

"Simply punch twice" -If first one of the day is a bus, do we do "it" there or before stepping into the bus somewhere?

yes, the machines for stamping are in buses usually in the middle, they have in most cases blue colour.

I have traintickets Vienna-Bratislava, do they need to be validated in andvance?

no, they will get stamped by a ticket-controller of the railway company, if they have the printed route on it.
