Buying tickets at train stations

Would you like personal advice when buying a ticket or would you like to find out about fares and connections? They will be happy to help you at one of the many sales outlets. Alternatively, depending on your location, you can buy your ticket from a ticket vending machine at the train station.

Current note: Due to the Corona pandemic, many sales outlets have restricted opening hours. Under the following links you will find information on deviating opening hours of DB sales offices as well as deviating opening hours of Abellio sales offices.

Buying tickets on the train

To travel by train, you must be in possession of a valid ticket. Tickets can be purchased before the start of the journey at one of the ticket machines or at one of the sales points at the train stations (see above). A large number of vehicles have ticket vending machines on the train, , so you can also buy a ticket when boarding.

In addition, almost all vehicles in Saxony-Anhalt are manned by a customer service representative. If it is not possible to buy a ticket before boarding the train, or if the ticket vending machines are not operational, you can obtain your ticket from the customer service agent on the train without any problems (if the sales technology is not available or not operational, there is no surcharge). Please contact the customer advisor actively!

Bus tickets

On regional buses, you can obtain your ticket directly from the bus driver.

Current information: In the meantime, tickets are again sold by the bus driver on most lines. This is made possible by an additional protective device at the driver's workplace. Nevertheless, please use online and cell phone tickets if possible, if available in your region, as well as the ticket machines at the stations.
