Westbahn tariff change: Faster connections and new night trains from December
From December 15, the Western Railway will significantly expand its timetable and not only optimize existing routes, but also introduce new connections. This measure comes to Christmas traffic in a favorable time and should offer passengers an attractive offer.
The extended direct connection from Vienna to Vorarlberg should be particularly emphasized. This connection will be offered twice a day in the future and the travel time will be significantly shortened - by an hour. This benefits travelers from a faster journey to the beautiful Lake Constance region. In addition, the route is now being extended to Lindau, which creates a direct connection to this region. This was announced by Thomas Posch, Managing Director of the Westbahn, in a press release.optimizations of the tirol connection
In addition, the tirol connection is further expanded. From December there will be a new stop in Jenbach, which offers travelers a better connection. In addition, the Westbahnhof in Innsbruck is now also served and in Imst-Pitztal the trains can in future keep in both directions. These innovations help to strengthen the Westbahn its position in regional rail traffic.
Another highlight in the new timetable is the introduction of a daily night connection from Vienna to Salzburg. The last train will leave at 00:08 and arrive in Salzburg until 2:42 a.m., while he serves all regular holds along the western track. In addition, a pair of train from Vienna via Salzburg to St. Johann in the Pongau is extended, which connects cities like Hallein, Golling and Bischofshofen.
international connections to Germany
The Western Railway is planning a larger expansion in international long -distance transport in the coming year. From December 15, 2024, there will be a new connection from Munich via Augsburg, Legoland Germany in Günzburg and Ulm to Stuttgart. This route is initially served twice a day and promises a pleasant travel time of around 6.5 hours. The new offer enables travelers to get directly from Vienna to Stuttgart, which is a practical option for many. The prices are also attractive, with a "West Super Prize" of only 28.99 euros for the Vienna route to Stuttgart and 16.99 euros for Salzburg to Stuttgart.
